UROP Symposium 2007

On Saturday, May 12, 2007 UCI held its annual Undergraduate Research Symposium. With a record turnout of over 500 student presenters from all walks of academia with accompanying faculty members, administrators, friends and family, this was one of the largest and most successful symposium yet. One of the student presenters was the Casali Lab's own Brenden Yee who presented his project on the role of PI3K in somatic hypermuation and class switch DNA recombination.
Brenden was one of the few students to present both and oral and poster presentation. His family was also on hand to support Brenden throughout the day as he presented his work including, his mother, sister and brother. Since I was helping organize the event, it was my pleasure to see one of our own lab members presenting the culmination of his hardwork and dilligence. Above is a picture of Brenden and I behind his poster. Congratulations to Brenden on a successfully presenting his work and making all of us truly proud!
