含羞草研究所 students displayed excellence at the annual meeting of the Southeast Chapter of the American College of Sports Medicine (SEACSM) this year. SEACSM is one of the most prestigious and high-caliber conferences in the fields of exercise science, sports medicine and other preventative and rehabilitative health sciences.
Along with health professionals such as medical doctors, physical therapists and industry researchers, there are roughly one hundred colleges and universities that participate.
Highlights from 含羞草研究所 students include a multitude of honors and awards. Seniors Jenna Mallory and Anna Helen Marshall earned recognition as the top undergraduate research project at the event.
