<span class="gmailmsg">What makes the Scientista Symposium truly unique is our platform for women in STEM to present their original research to a national audience of peers and judges. The process of presenting one's work on a national forum is an invaluable
opportunity that can help instill confidence in young women. We are encouraging students currently involved in research to submit an abstract for the “Poster Fair” portion of the symposium. We would greatly appreciate if you could pass this message to any
students you think applicable, particularly college seniors who are writing theses. </span><br>

<span class="gmailmsg">Students may submit their abstracts <a href="http://wisewordsmagazine.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=7151035624221fc772f3ff2eb&id=691c253b66&e=0486470c08" target="_blank">here</a></span></span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Courier New""><br>
