On October 14-15th, 2022, RUSH Graduate College hosted its first annual research retreat. At this retreat, students were able to present their current research, hear from faculty about ongoing projects in their labs, present and observe poster presentations, create mentor/mentee relationships, and form bonds and memories with their peers. After challenging years of virtual learning, it was wonderful to see the mingling and collaborative initiative set forth by both students and faculty.
This research retreat would not be possible without our graduate college staff, our faculty presenters, the donations from the family and friends of Veronica Bernard, PhD (honorary), the Veronica Bernard Memorial Wellness Fund, and most importantly our one-of-a-kind students. A very special thank you to you all. We truly hope this event was just as special to you as it was to us, and we look forward to next year!
