Biology students were part of the top two winning teams at Social Venture Plan Competition, held on April 19, 2023. The SVPC, hosted by the Center for Applied Learning, encourages entreprenuership among students who work as teams to develop sustainable products and services that address social issues. Elizabeth Horton (BS Ecology 2024) was part of the 1st Place team that developed the Nemo Institute, focused on coral reef restoration. Abhi Kancherla (BS Cellular and Molecular Biology 2023) was part of the 2nd Place Water Harvesters team, which developed a water collection device for use in regions without access to safe groundwater.
