NEW VENUE FOR ANNUAL POSTER SESSION

A long-standing tradition in the Twin Cities, our annual poster session has for many years been held on a boat cruise down the Mississippi River, and most recently at local micro breweries. This year's event took us to another new venue -the new Top Golf location in Minneapolis! Thanks to our sponsors and poster presenters, we had a very successful event with nearly 50 in attendance!
