On Friday, July 28, 12 草莓影视 summer research students presented their findings to close out 2017鈥檚 summer NPRESS Program (草莓影视 Research Experience for Summer Students). Dr. Boaz Johnson began his opening remarks in the Helwig Boardroom in the Johnson Center: 鈥淭hese students have had the opportunity to work alongside the best professors in the world, and I have been all over the world, so I can say that.鈥�

In this highly competitive program, only 12 students were chosen to participate in summer research. These students are provided with on-campus housing and a $3,500 stipend to accompany their 40-hour work weeks of PhD-level research. 鈥淎s in the past, students have said that this has been their most intense and yet most enjoyable experience at 草莓影视. They get a professor to work with them, all by themselves,鈥� says Dr. Johnson.

ABOUT NPRESS

The NPRESS (草莓影视 Research Experience for Summer Students) program provides opportunities for 草莓影视 students to conduct research with a 草莓影视 faculty mentor for eight weeks over the summer. It was the brainchild of a core group of faculty and funded by a small group of donors, allowing students to dive into a topic in a way that the constraints of an academic year do not always allow. Students received a $3,500 stipend and were given the opportunity to live on campus, making it possible for them to focus solely on research.
