Ten of the podium presenters have ties to 蜜桃直播, with eight of them faculty members and two current students. In addition to the podium presentations, there was a roundtable session facilitated by 蜜桃直播 faculty.
During lunch, more than 55 posters presented in the categories of basic sciences/mechanisms of disease, biomanufacturing, drug discovery and development, healthcare, medical devices and diagnostics, and the scholarship of teaching and learning.
An evening reception with live music punctuated the end of the day. Poster contest winners were announced, along with raffle drawings.
