Graduate students' scientific research on the Charles River and Medical Center campuses will be honored and displayed at the All-University Science Research Poster Day. Distinguished presentations will receive honoraria with matching awards to the recipients' respective laboratories. The Community Technology Fund will sponsor an award for the research that best demonstrates a discovery or invention with a potential for practical or commercial application. The Photonics Center will award the Berman "Future of Light" prize to the presentation that shows significant promise to provide a beneficial impact on society.
