2020 Trick to the Treat

On Wednesday, October 28, Halmos College and the Center for Academic and Professional Success (CAPS) collaborated to bring NSU students the 9th annual Trick to the Treat of an Internship or Research Experience. Throughout the event, students had the opportunity to hear from various presenters on research, medical, and other science-related internship/research opportunities.

Using virtual round table discussions, students visited such topics as biology practicums, medical scribe experience, and the impact of COVID-19 on global education and research in STEM and the fields of health care. Research topics included “Expression & Localization of the 14-3-3 Protein Family within Mammals”, “Effects of Porphyromonas gingivalis derived sphingolipids on osteoclastogenesis”, “Evaluating student learning outcomes for research-based courses”, “Development of “Sharkavir”: A New Hypothetical Inhibitor for HIV-1 Protease, and “Survival and Development of Zebra Longwing, Heliconius charithonia, on native and non-native Passion vines, Passiflora sp., in South Florida”.
