The National Symposium for Predoctoral Research (NSPR) is a competitive academic event hosted by the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences. The symposium allows U.S. undergraduate students to showcase their research work in poster and oral platform settings, improve their presentation skills, and learn about the cutting-edge research and facilities at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Symposium-related expenses (travel, lodging, meals, activities) for all selected students will be covered by the Graduate School.
