The award was presented to Carrera and Mello at the closing WRD awards ceremony on May 8 in the Science Building on the university's Midtown campus in Danbury. The Provost's Prize, established in 2007 by WCSU Provost Dr. Linda Rinker, affords the opportunity for continuing students to make a research presentation at a professional meeting in their field.
The prize-winning project, titled "The Ability to Remember Irrelevant Words While Performing a Highly Involved Task," was one of 44 student research presentations during the WRD seminar and poster sessions. [Full Story ...]
