    Capstone

    Welcome to the virtual poster session for the Spring 2020 Plant Science Capstone course!

    This past spring our students, like so many others, were impacted by COVID-19. Although the arrival of the virus in Florida found students at various stages of completion in their capstone research they adapted quickly, made the necessary adjustments, and completed their requirements. On this page, you'll find audio and video flash talks from the students along with their project posters and contact information.
