[ Feature Article ] Last year, all presenting graduate students had 3 minutes to share their research. After these presentations, each student was assigned to a roundtable where attendees could ask students questions and provide guidance on their research. We asked the students what encouraged them to present at the forum, what their main takeaways were, and what advice they had for this year’s students. If you want to see this year’s presentations, register for the 2025 Research Forum today!
