MANSFIELD – Students at The Ohio State University at Mansfield will present research related to their area of study during the Student Research Frenzy, Feb. 18.

A half-dozen students are scheduled to present research related to psychology, biology, ecology and English. Each student will be given five minutes to present, with question and answer time at the end.

The event will be held in Ovalwood Hall, Room 100, from 12:35 to 1:30 p.m. and is open to the public.

Students and their presentations include Kira Metzger, “Herps and Hard Forest Edges;” Destiny Moton, “Three-Parent Babies;” Dominic Ferraro, “Why we Conform;” Karen Jiang, “IForce, Can AI be creative;” and Montse Juarez, “Things are looking (farther) up: Upward gaze orientation is overestimated.”

“The student research frenzy provides a great opportunity for students to share their accomplishments and gain experience speaking to the public, in a friendly environment,” said Kate Shannon, associate professor of art.

“This event will also serve as a source of inspiration for undergraduate students who are interested in doing research or who just want to know more about the research process.”

There is no pre-registration. Ohio State Mansfield is located at 1760 University Drive, Mansfield, Ohio. Ovalwood Hall can be found on the campus map.
