Lebenzon Lab takes on CSZ 2026

Jackie, Maranda, Alexandra and Zoe attended the annual CSZ meeting in Ottawa May 10-15. All our students gave outstanding posters at the poster session and wowed everyone with their graphics and sci comm skills! Maranda and Alexandra’s posters were shortlisted for conference-wide poster awards and after a tough competition, Alexandra was given a 2nd place honourable mention for her undergraduate thesis work!
