LMP 3MT Final 2024-2025: communicating your research!
The 3MT (or 3-Minute Thesis) is an academic research communication competition developed by The University of Queensland, Australia in 2008.
It is you, your research project, one slide and 3 minutes. You are communicating to a non-scientific audience about why you’re doing your research and what you hope to achieve with it.
The Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology is holding its own 3MT competition this year, open to any learner in any program in LMP.
Join us for the finals, find out who our judging panel will pick as the LMP winner and take part in the People's Choice award!
