In spite of all the obstacles generated by the COVID-19 pandemic, my students in the Thomaston High School Science and Engineering Cohort program have progressed this year on their various research projects. This week, we held a hybrid Research Symposium, a formal presentation of their research work. It is an annual event, and it is required by the University at Albany – University in the High School program, through which the students can earn college credit for their research work. This year’s symposium consisted of a pre-recorded video that includes an introduction, a guest speaker presentation by Dr. Andrea Weston of Pfizer, and then individual presentations by each Cohort student. Additionally, the students did a live event on May 25th where they presented posters explaining their research work to their families, friends, and other guests. The symposium program booklet gives a full description of these events. Here are photos of the students and the symposium:
