Biochemistry major Alyssa Reddy spent 10 weeks of her summer doing skills training at Towson University and research rotations at the University of Maryland in their SUMMIR (Supporting Undergraduate Members in Microbiology and Immunology Research) Program. The work culminated in a symposium where participants presented their work. Alyssa is pictured with her cohort on skill share day, and giving her final oral presentation.
