April 27 - 28, 2021 | Virtually

Posters on the Hill is a critical element in CUR's advocacy efforts. It is more important than ever that the voice of undergraduate researchers and their mentors are heard on Capitol Hill. This prestigious event celebrates the impressive work of the accepted students and supports the messages of the importance of undergraduate research at the federal level. Sixty student presenters have been selected from hundreds of applicants to participate in this prestigious event. 

Virtual POH 2021 will be a little different this year, but will still include the critical elements of a traditional POH signature event. To meet these prestigious researchers, please visit the "Meet the Researcher" page by clicking on the button below. You will dive into over 60 participants who represent 42 states and the District of Columbia. Explore their individual pages that showcase information about the presenter as well as their research. 

Please take note of our agenda for April 27-28, 2021. We welcome the undergraduate community, faculty/mentors, friends, and family of our researchers to join in on April 28, 2021, to listen and talk to our researchers from 2:00 - 4:00 PM ET. Registration is free.
