2026 Chu Lecture Student Research Forum

Register

See all the exciting student research going on at SNC and the Medical College of Wisconsin at the 2026 Chu Lecture Student Research Forum. Student researchers will be stationed by their posters to talk about their impactful research. Stop by for refreshments and enjoy a casual walk-through at your own pace.

Also, consider registering to attend April 17th's 7:00 p.m. 2026 Chu Lecture, "The Laboratory and the Cathedral: Both Can Be Places of Worship" featuring world-renowned scientist Dr. Francis Collins. Many people today assume that science and faith are somehow in conflict. Dr. Francis Collins begs to differ. He believes science can be seen as a form of worship, with the laboratory and the cathedral not all that different. Following the lecture, enjoy complimentary refreshments and snacks plus a chance to meet Dr. Collins. He will be available for photographs and book signing. Bring your own book or purchase one at the event.

Dr. Collins is a physician-geneticist noted for his landmark discoveries of disease genes and his leadership of the international Human Genome Project, which culminated in April 2003 with the completion of a finished sequence of the human DNA instruction book. He served as director of the National Human Genome Research Institute at the NIH from 1993-2008.
