Vincent du Vigneaud Memorial Research Symposium

Inspired by its namesake’s passion for teaching, the Vincent du Vigneaud Memorial Research Symposium provides Weill Cornell students an important opportunity to share their research and learn from one another. Occurring during the spring of each year, elected student volunteers plan and run their own day-long event devoted to the research of their peers. Starting off with a morning keynote address by a student-elected guest speaker, the symposium features poster and oral presentations by students from all graduate school programs.
