Since 2009, the IBB has provided support for over 150 graduate students to present their research at national and international meetings. This year we honored the students and faculty with a special luncheon on February 15, 2017 at the Cohen House. The IBB is sincerely grateful to the Edgar O’Rear and Mary Morse Family Funds for sponsoring these awards.
