2018 Fellows' Poster Session & Abstracts

Fellows present their research at the annual poster session.

Wednesday, June 20 — 4:00-6:00 p.m.

Maritime Room

The annual Fellows’ Poster Session affords attendees a unique opportunity to learn more about research the DOE NNSA SSGF program supports. The session is divided into two groups, and each presenting fellow is provided space to highlight his or her latest findings. This format allows all attendees – including fellow presenters – to ask questions of and engage in discussion with one another.
