About this Event
SC INBRE looks forward to welcoming you to our 18th Annual Science Symposium – and fifth Cycle renewal and 25th anniversary celebration –and is excited to present an in-person day of learning and networking!
Science Symposium to be held on Saturday, February 20, 2027!
Our statewide annual Science Symposium will be held in the Russell House University Union on the USC Main Campus in Columbia (). Free parking is available in the Bull Street Garage adjacent to the Russell House. (Bringing a bus or shuttle, please contact us to arrange special parking!)
What is the Science Symposium?
SC INBRE-funded faculty and students will give talks on their research. Researchers at all academic levels who have received funding from SC INBRE in the past year can participate in our poster sessions. There will also be an exhibit hall and plenty of networking opportunities. We are offering the opportunity for student abstract submitters to give a 3-Minute Madness flash talk (3 minutes, 1 slide, 0 questions).
Who can submit a poster?
Anyone who has received funding from SC INBRE (RP, PP, institutional funds, etc.) in the last year. NOTE: only student posters (high school, undergrad, grad, and postdoc) will be judged (PS. we need judges — you can volunteer via the registration form). Abstracts are due January 22. No late abstracts will be accepted. (Abstract submission = registration for the person submitting this form.)
Who can attend?
Anyone from our 16 network institutions who have received our funding and participated in our programs. Members of the public can also attend. This is our chance to showcase the great work produced by SC INBRE! Families and lab members of student presenters are encouraged to register to attend!
