This marked the first time that BREE research was presented at a SACNAS meeting, and both posters were highly visited by conference attendees. When asked about their experience during the conference, the former BREE interns shared the following: “The SACNAS conference was the most diverse, interactive, and educational conference I have ever been to” –Julyanice Cruz “SACNAS was such an amazing and life-changing experience. It was my first time presenting a poster at a conference an it was gratifying. Everything, from the different speakers to the Professional Development Sessions, inspired me to continue with my dreams pursuing a STEM career. This conference definitely made me grow not only as a professional but also as a person.” –Pamela Garcia
