The 17th Annual Chinook Symposium for Chemistry and Biochemistry will be held on September 13, 2024, in the Science Commons (all in the 7th floor atrium) at the University of Lethbridge. Hosted by the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry, the mandate of the symposium and associated poster and oral presentation prizes is to recognize undergraduate and graduate students performing original research in chemistry and biochemistry.
