The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) is an academic competition that assists current graduate students with fostering effective presentation and communication skills. Participants have just three minutes to explain the breadth and significance of their research project to a non-specialist audience. It is a great way to share your research. Its also a LOT of fun!

• Congratulations to Manveen Kaur (Ronaldo Cerri’s group) for advancing to the Three Minute Thesis Semifinal
• Congratulations to Anne-Marieke Smid (Nina Von Keyserlingk’s group) for winning the People’s Choice Award. Manveen and Anne-Marieke participated in the multi-disciplinary heat on Mar 3rd.
