Julia Tropak will be one of twelve competitors at Lakehead University for the Ontario Three Minute Thesis (3MT Competition). The 3 Minute Thesis (3MT®) is a university-wide competition for graduate students in which participants present their research and its wider impact in 3 minutes or less to a panel of non-specialist judges. The challenge is to present complex research in an engaging, accessible, and compelling way, using only one static slide. Details and the live stream for the 3MT will be posted on the Lakehead University website if you want to tune in. If you prefer an asynchronous experience, you can hear about how 6- year old Julia disliked antibiotics in her presentation “Bacteria: Friend or Foe?”.
