Eight Cornell doctoral students will be advancing to the final round of the 2023 Three Minute Thesis competition (3MT). The students and their fields are:
- Fangming Cui, psychology
- Sharada Gopal, biological and biomedical sciences
- Yuexing Hao, design and environmental analysis
- Kimberly Hochstedler, statistics
- Lidia Komondy, entomology
- Sangwoo Park, biophysics
- Susannah Sharpless, English language and literature
- Yurong You, computer science
The final competition will be held live over Zoom on Thursday, March 30. A panel of judges with connections to the Cornell community will evaluate students on how well they presented a compelling story on their dissertation or thesis and its significance in just three minutes in language appropriate to a non-specialist audience with the aid of only one, static slide.
