Student Publications

In addition to our traditional publications, GEP students and their faculty mentors are publishing in microPublication.org, which publishes brief articles on research findings presented in a single figure to rapidly disseminate experimentally sound results to the community. For a full list of GEP microPublication articles, see the “Micropublications” page.
