How have previous VT-REEL fellows benefited from this program?
Some 2017 and 2018 participants continue to conduct research with their Blacksburg or AREC faculty mentors and labs. Several VT-REEL fellows have submitted scientific abstracts for professional meetings and/or presented their data at local and national conferences. A few have completed summer REU programs at other institutions, building upon the skills gained in VT-REEL. Others are applying to graduate programs in new areas that they learned about during this program.
