Summer Students
2005 Summer Student Program
The 2005 Summer
Student Research Program was a huge success this year.
We had a terrific number of students participate in the program
this year with 46 students. The BC Research
Institute for Children's & Women's Health funded 19 of
these students (listed below) and the Interdisciplinary Women's
Reproductive Health Training Program (IWRH) funded 4 students.
We had a great group of faculty presenters and the student
presentations were extremely well done. Our annual Summer
Student Research Program Poster Day had the participation
of 40 students.
