    ND POSTDOC SPOTLIGHT: Showcasing Postdoctoral Scholarship
    Finals

    The ND Postdoc Spotlight showcases the world-case research conducted by postdoctoral scholars in a three-minute format.  There is a growing need for specialists to deliver their research to the public in a format that competes with other short expositions of knowledge, while leveraging the expert communication skills that they have honed in their advanced training. Scholars can choose to speak, sing, and rap their presentations
    with the aid of a single static slide and may use props to enhance their presentation. Top three competitors will move on to the final competition on Nov. 4, 2026 where they will compete for four $1500 awards.

    Registration is required to participate.  Registration is not required to attend.
