Winners of the Gumberg Library Award for Undergraduate Research Announced

Melissa Meola and Ashley Leposky, seniors in the School of Nursing, are the winners of the first Gumberg Library Award for Undergraduate Research, a cash prize of $250, which they will share. Their poster on the “Prevention of Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP)” was one of the posters accepted for Duquesne University’s 2013 Undergraduate Research and Scholarship Symposium (URSS). A committee of library faculty and administrators judged relevant posters based on the posters’ intellectual merits and demonstration that the research presented meets the standard of its field. Congratulations Melissa and Ashley!
