Join us in celebrating the research progress of the 2026 Robert Louis Katz & Manne Research Institute Summer Scholars Program participants by attending the program's annual poster symposium on August 4 at 1:00 p.m. The summer scholar program provides undergraduate students experience in research related to childhood health and disease through the ongoing generosity of the Robert Louis Katz Medical Research Foundation and Manne Research Institute. The scholars spend eight weeks working daily with their faculty mentor and participating in a weekly course to learn about scientific presentations and careers in science.

Dr. Patrick Seed, President and Chief Research Officer of Manne Research Institute, will deliver remarks for presenters and attendees at 2:30 p.m.

Date and Time: August 4, 1:00–3:00 p.m.
