The Phi Sigma Biological Honors Society of the NIU Department of Biological Sciences hosted its 20th annual Student Research Symposium April 12.

Approximately 50 students, both graduate and undergraduate, presented posters of their research and were judged by a panel from the department faculty.

Gunisha Arora, Bode Lab, was awarded the Phi Sigma Outstanding Graduate Student Award, and Evan Wittke, Bode Lab, was awarded the Phi Sigma Outstanding Undergraduate Student Award.

Phi Sigma provides a cross-section of undergraduate and graduate students and professional people with unique interests and experience in biology with opportunities to use their knowledge in ways that classroom experience alone cannot.
