Our 2017 Alaska INBRE retreat is now over, sad but true. We had 17 Graduate and Undergraduate Research Assistants present posters in our three One Health Categories; environmental, animal, and human health. Three GRAs and one URA were awarded full cost travel awards to attend the 2017 NIH IDeA Western Regional Conference in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
