Presentation at Murdock Science Conference

I'll be giving a presentation this coming weekend at the Murdock Science conference at Whitman College. The conference brings together more than 400 students and faculty from Northwest region colleges to present results from research projects they have worked on at their home institutions or elsewhere. About 20 Whitman students will present their research in the disciplines of biology, geology, chemistry, physics and mathematics. Faculty members do not present their own research, but the conference provides an opportunity to meet faculty from other institutions and discuss common concerns. It was a little difficult to get into the conference since my presentation does not have any actual research results, but the director consented to let me present so this coming weekend should be pretty interesting. Looking forward to it.
