Research 2022 Penn 3MT Winners

This year's 3 Minute Thesis competition, held for the second time virtually, saw 5 Penn graduate students submit 3 minute videos describing their research to the public. Students from the School of Engineering & Applied Sciences, the Graduate School of Education, and the Perelman School of Medicine entered the competition. You can still watch these amazing videos on our 3 Minute Thesis webpage.
