In March, 3 teams of Queen’s BHSc students participated in SCINAPSE – the Undergraduate Science Case Competition hosted at the University of Ottawa and swept the podium in the lower division category (1st and 2nd years)

"Beyond the results, this experience was incredibly meaningful for us. It was inspiring to engage with so many talented students from across Canada, and this opportunity reinforced what we have learned through the Queen’s Health Sciences program. We are especially grateful to the Queen's faculty for fostering the critical thinking, collaboration, and research skills in a variety of their courses that allowed us to succeed in such a competitive environment."

The winning teams were:
1st Place: Jake Heinbuch (BHSc), Luka Parikh (BHSc), Luke Heinbuch (BHSc)
2nd Place: Bridget Stewart (BHSc), Kimberly Jiang (BHSc), Naba Aziz (BHSc), Ryder Stephen (HBSc)
3rd Place: Manaar Hussain (BHSc), Nawal Youssef (BHSc), Ben Chernin (BHSc)

Congratulations to all of the BHSc students who presented their research last week at our annual Research Poster Day! It was amazing to see how all of your hard work this year pay off.

Research Poster Day provides Biochemistry, Health Sciences, and Life Sciences students who are completing upper-year research projects the opportunity to present their research in a professional and real-world environment. With more than 200 students showcasing posters over three days, this event allows faculty and students to see the breadth and depth of research being done within these undergraduate programs.
