“NCAS was a very great conference to attend. I got to see many inspiring posters as well as oral talks that were very cutting-edge in their respective research fields. To me, conferences like this are a great way to get someone interested in doing research and it’s always refreshing to see what others are working on even in fields that you may not be too familiar with.”

“While I knew what to expect from a conference, the NCAS conference opened me up to research and work from many other fields and colleges that I had not seen before.”

“I learned about some great research and one of the things that stuck out to me was the military opportunities for people looking for a more medical route.”

We also loved the diversity at NCAS and that the opportunity to present research work was extended to high school students. We had a great time seeing their work “I didn’t even know research could be done before college, I found that amazing.”

“I attended the Molecular Cell Biology ones. I think all the presenters that I saw explained their topics really well and in a way that I, even as someone with virtually no biology background, was able to understand everything.”

We all had our memorable poster or one that stood out – for example, creating low-cost aerosol sensors “I like the idea of creating a way for people to monitor the air quality in a cost-efficient way” to bacteria creating biofilm barriers to protect themselves from antibiotics, they triggered our curiosity and inquiring nature “I suggested that instead of attempting to destroy the biofilm, a genetically modified virus could be used to penetrate the barrier to deliver an inhibitor that would stop biofilm production”.

“The presenters were very friendly, and I could tell they had spent a lot of time learning and enjoying their research” as well as getting to hear about the broad array of areas where the work presented was impactful.

“The questions that my peers asked helped me immensely to ground my work, understand it better myself, and open myself up to talking about my work with a wider audience.”

“Being surrounded by peers who share the same feeling of wanting to continue their knowledge of STEM to continue making their path in the field was something truly amazing to witness.”
This is the first in a short series: Reflections on the 2023 NCAS Annual Meeting. We had so many great comments from the UNCP Compass group that would not fit in their newsletter article, so we will be running one quote a day for the next couple of weeks.
The students who shared their reflections are listed in the table below.
Enjoy! Here is the first installment:
It was an exciting and informative event for all of us and provided a great platform for us to learn from and engage with talented students from various fields.
