Hi, everyone.

 I received news from my colleague at Lamar University, Dr. Bahrim, who is the head of the undergraduate affairs office. Would you please send this to the professors at your departments, so that others students who are doing research can see this.

Thank you for your help in advance!

Sincerely,
Karson Lamar

Dear Karson,

I hope the semester goes well for you.

Could you please encourage your colleagues to present their research at the EXPO 2026 at Lamar University?  The earlier submission deadline is April 10th.  We receive abstracts until the 15th if you let us know that you intend to present.

They can present a poster or give a talk.   The layout of the conference will be similar as for EXPO 2025, which is still posted for another week at   https://www.lamar.edu/undergraduate-research/conferences/expo/detailed-agenda-for-expo.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.lamar.edu_undergraduate-2Dresearch_conferences_expo_detailed-2Dagenda-2Dfor-2Dexpo.html&d=DwMFaQ&c=oqyuZuih6ykib6aKiBq22_bich4AVfYGoLertJN0bEc&r=2VJsmk9kwbPaLdFoSpIZ3o8prtLn1fej_S6JTdM46fg&m=-n_FU4WaJiiLD9qifWcWYYqjJteifv3QC2k8Hs9kBPUuVOkcbY-zK2gF5YvkqNrf&s=BYSbFrNmSm7xiiSns2NCDhJ7olCCaGJFZsjxqwZdB1I&e=>.  I will cover the cost for travel to Lamar, and 3 nights at the MCM Elegante (arrival on April 29 and departure on May 2), if they accept to share the room and carpool down to Lamar.

The portal for abstract submission is open at https://www.lamar.edu/undergraduate-research/conferences/expo/index.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.lamar.edu_undergraduate-2Dresearch_conferences_expo_index.html&d=DwMFaQ&c=oqyuZuih6ykib6aKiBq22_bich4AVfYGoLertJN0bEc&r=2VJsmk9kwbPaLdFoSpIZ3o8prtLn1fej_S6JTdM46fg&m=-n_FU4WaJiiLD9qifWcWYYqjJteifv3QC2k8Hs9kBPUuVOkcbY-zK2gF5YvkqNrf&s=nHxM5j3U4V5p-ZDZLZHj_0U77oqBOMrSm-vw3H-srlY&e=>, as well as the registration portal.

Here is the most recent O.U.R. Newsletter which includes an overview of the Fall conference and programs that we sponsor, including the 24 undergrad grant winners who will present their research at EXPO.

 I attach the book of the 2025 Fall Conference, where you had an outstanding presentation.  I hope this stays a nice memory for both you and Mohammad.
