On April 13, 2007, four Science Club students and two Eastfield faculty/staff attended the TSM Spring meeting. Our intern from West Mesquite High School (whose experience on our SEM equipment is a major component of her mentorship class this semester) and her teacher escort also attended.

The Friday session included a series of research talks and students had an opportunity to network with materials science industry professionals as well as academic research biologists. We presented a talk about the role of the Scanning Electron Microscopy in our mission of recruiting future scientists.
