CSI promotes research throughout the profession by offering students a forum to present their research findings at the MSS Annual Research Poster Symposium at each MSS Interim Meeting.

The Seventh Annual MSS Research Poster Symposium will be held Friday, Nov. 6, at the 2009 MSS Interim Meeting in Houston, Texas.
