<p>Congrats to Malanai’s son and to all!</p>
<p>I just got a very excited text from my daughter who was at the NanoBio Summit in Montgomery AL. She was there to present her research that she worked on during HHMI this past summer and continues to work on. She not only got to introduce the key note speaker (Vice President of Research from UA) but won third place in the undergraduate research category. She said, “Mommy, the check is as big as me, it’s life size.” Priceless!</p>
<p>Special thanks to Memphisguy’s son who was kind enough to give her a ride. </p>
<p>Roll Tide. By the way- she is a sophomore.</p>
<p>Awwwww!! Regarding the big check comment.</p>
<p>That is fantastic! Congratulations to your D.</p>
<p>Will she continue her research throughout her time at UA?</p>
<p>She is really enjoying her research and will definitely continue during her time at UA. She is currently torn between a career in research or medicine.</p>
<p>Congrats to your D, Sniner! She is such a motivated, hard-working and very smart young lady. Well-deserved!</p>
<p>Congratulations!!!</p>
<p>So wonderful! Congrats!</p>
<p>Congrats! </p>
<p>Did she take a pic of herself with the big check?</p>
<p>She took a picture of the check sitting on her couch. I will have her take one of her holding it today. I hope I can somehow get a picture of her accepting it from last night.</p>
<p>Congratulations to your D, Sniner! That’s the best kind of brag - hard work rewarded by an award that will be most helpful to her becoming gainfully employed. Dollars are nice, too, but the JOB is the prize!</p>
<p>Totally agree 2012mom. The check was only for $100, the recognition priceless!</p>
<p>Congratulations! Surely somebody at the event took pics of the presentation, hope you locate a photo soon.</p>
<p>Roll Tide SninerDD, Roll Tide!</p>
<p>Congrats Sniner and Sninerdaughter !! </p>
<p>Haven’t heard from DS to know how his team did in the graduate division (no surprise there) but it is good to know that your DD is representing so well.</p>
<p>Wonderful! A well deserved Rocky Mountain high. :)</p>
<p>Congrats!</p>
<p>Sniner, what is HHMI?</p>
<p>Howard Hughes Medical Institute Undergraduate Research Experience. I highly recommend it for rising sophomores.</p>
<p>Son just registered for his final semester. Next stop, real world!</p>
<p>^Now that is the brag of the day. Congratulations.</p>
<p>Roll Tide, my friend, Roll Tide!!!</p>
