  Come See the
Texas IP Fellows’ Research Week Talks!
4/14 & 4/16

April 14 and 16 are big days for TIP’s Texas IP Fellows! They will be presenting their independent research projects (a.k.a., “the capstone”) during UT’s Research Week.  As shown below, the Fellows’ topics run the gamut from marijuana use to romantic relationships, the Roman Empire, and police stun-gun use.   

Please come by and see as few or as many talks as you like.  (There is time in between each talk for you to take off.) 

Your support is much appreciated!
