The Spring Research Fair (Undergraduate Research Conference) was held on April 4, 2017 at the Nebraska Union. UCare students Katie Monson, Laura Munn and Ellie Watkins presented their first research poster titled “Investigating executive function in children at-risk for developmental dyslexia (DD) using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)”. Both Katie and Laura’s mother came to support them. Dr. Wang was very proud of them learning neuroimaging data analysis from ground zero. Their enthusiasm and diligence finally paid off. They were able to put their findings together and presented as a poster format. Katie will graduate in June 2017 and is trying to get into graduate program. Laura and Ellie will continue their research at NL3 Lab under Dr. Wang’s mentorship in the coming academic year. This is exciting.
