The team traveled down to Charleston, West Virginia this October for the 2023 American Council for Medicinally Active Plants (ACMAP) conference, a diverse interdisciplinary conference focusing on all aspects of medicinal plants, from ethnobotany to propagation to phytochemisty and bioactivity. We were lucky to bring 4 of our students to present, along with our stalwart Lab Manager Teal!
The conference was a great opportunity to catch up with other researchers, and for our students to present both oral talks or posters of their work. And the conference really responded to the work, presenting three of our students with awards:
- Amelia Hanson, 1st place, undergraduate poster competition
- Ryan Opferman, 2nd place, undergraduate poster competition
- Savannah Anez, 1st place, graduate oral competition
Congratulations to our students, and we’ll see ACMAP next year in Texas!
