Two students from IUP took part in the 2026 Undergraduate Research Day at the State Capitol Building held on March 24th.
The event is a poster conference that allows undergrads enrolled in state colleges and universities to showcase their research talents to state house and senate members. All fields of research are encouraged and students are nominated by their university to take part.
The two students were Serena Aumick, a pre-veterinary biology major in the Cook Honors College presented “Expanding the Available Data for Green Spiny Lizards” while Megan Seaman, a computer science major in the Cook Honors College presented “Painting AI Pink: Utilizing Artificial Intelligence in Breast Cancer Diagnosis.”
The IUP students were two of only 43 students from 28 colleges and universities in Pennsylvania who were invited to participate in the 2026 event.
