2019 Dr. R.E. Peter Biology Conference

The 2019 R.E. Peter Biology Conference was held March 6-8, 2019! We had a great line-up of undergraduate and graduate poster and oral presentations, as well as two great keynote addresses from Dr. Chris Glover and John Acorn, and a fun closing mixer of 3MT + biology trivia.

If you would like a copy, the complete 2019 abstract book, representing the full breadth and depth of work being conducted by University of Alberta students, can be found here.

We would like to thank the many volunteers who helped make the conference possible, as well as the adjudicators who took time out of their days to provide feedback on student presentations. Based on the results of all the adjudicators, we would like to congratulate the 2019 R.E. Peter winners:
