Congratulations to Kush Kumar Yadav (Kenney lab) for being awarded the People’s Choice Award during the inaugural 3MT® Competition at CRWAD 2024! Kush's presentation was titled "The unexpected ride of rat hepatitis E virus to humans".
The Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) is a research communication competition developed in 2008 by the University of Queensland in Australia. Today, 3MT® competitions are held annually in over 900 universities across more than 85 countries. 3MT® competitions help graduate students develop and showcase their research communication skills by challenging them to present their thesis or dissertation as a compelling story in language appropriate to a non-specialist audience in just three minutes, with one slide, without any props or gimmicks. This is the ultimate challenge of “elevator talks” for graduate students!
