Academic Posters
Lunchtime poster sessions provided a spectrum of the scholarship and diverse research interests of faculty, covering health, anatomy, nutrition, education, speech therapy, geology, music and international librarianship. A stroll through the poster area offered insights into the relationship between obesity and diet and between exercise and coronary artery disease, and data on community health internship programs, hypertension, diabetes and how blueberries enhance memory. Other posters presented new perspectives on museum lighting, the latest "dirt" on fossils in South Dakota, technological research innovations for the classroom, and an exposition on the breathing and vocal functions in speech therapy.
