BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY STUDENTS AND PROFESSORS LEND THEMSELVES TO THE BU PUB QUIZ

As part of its yearly Research Week activities, Bishop’s University invites members of the community to learn more about some of the research that is being undertaken by both students and professors at Bishop’s.

Hosted by the University’s Research Office, the event promises to be entertaining, informative and easily accessible to a broad audience. Five students and three faculty members in the fields of Biology, Modern Languages, Physics, Psychology and Sports Studies will summarize their research programs in five minutes each. Audience members are invited to complete the accompanying Pub Quiz and enter a draw to win a small prize.

How can research inform policies on sexual assault and sexual harassment on university campuses? Do perfectionism and aggressiveness play a role in athletes’ success? What are the most important psychological and biological factors that come into the development of Multiple Sclerosis? These topics and several others will be featured in these short talks and Pub Quiz.

Anyone who is eager to learn new things and is invited to come enjoy a beer and interact with the researchers in what will surely be lively and enlightening presentations.

Please check out other Research Week events taking place March 27 – April 1 at Bishop’s University.
