WV Science Symposium 4/20 & 21

            In addition to hosting this event, WVSU will be represented by more than a dozen students and faculty as they share exciting and competitive research being conducted on the campus of WV State University. This is an opportunity for faculty, researchers, students, policymakers and business community members to share research ideas, build collaborations and learn to transform research into economic development.  Activities will include four panel presentations: biotechnology start-up success stories, transforming discovery into a successful product, government and private groups available to help, and research funding opportunities within West Virginia. Each panel will include expert speakers on that topic.

            The West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission, through the Division of Science and Research, along with the WV Academy of Science and the West Virginia University Research Corporation are co-sponsors of the event.  For event information, including a detailed agenda and registration information, go to www.wvresearch.org.
