Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies hosted its annual 3MT competition on March 16, 2016 from 1 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. It was another amazing showcase of the contributions and diversity of McGill graduate research. The presenters wowed us with their three-minute presentations aimed for a diverse non-specialist audience about their research and its impact on the community.
The presentations were recorded and streamed live online.
During the event, the judges selected three participants to represent McGill at the CAGS 3MT Eastern regional finals, U21 3MT international competition and concours ACFAS Ma Thèse en 180 secondes.
