About our Research and Scholarship Forums
ÐÓ°ÉÊÓƵ's College of Osteopathic Medicine’s (COM) research and scholarship forums are intended to share and celebrate the research conducted by our ÐÓ°ÉÊÓƵ COM students. Preparing and presenting a poster is a skill and the ÐÓ°ÉÊÓƵ COM Research and Scholarship Committee embraces its mission for advancing research within ÐÓ°ÉÊÓƵ COM by supporting our students as they conduct and present their research. Medical students have several opportunities to present their research projects.
