Call for applications – Graduate Research Showcase at UW-Madison Day at the Capitol
The UW-Madison Office of State Relations is seeking graduate student and postdoctoral researchers interested in sharing their research with state policymakers this spring as part of the annual UW-Madison Day at the Capitol on April 30, 2025. This event will be held in-person and consists of a luncheon at the Madison Concourse Hotel from 12–1pm and the opportunity to meet with state policy makers during a poster presentation from 2–4pm in the Capitol rotunda. This is an excellent opportunity for researchers to present their work to a non-scientific audience and show legislators, staffers, civil servants, and the public the cutting-edge research occurring on campus and why it is important to Wisconsinites.
The application can be found here and is due no later than 11:59pm on February 28, 2025. If you are selected to present a poster, there will be a training event in mid-April to provide resources for communicating with policymakers. For more information see the event website. If you have questions about the event or application, please email Natalia Rosario-Meléndez, CaSP president (rosariomelnd@wisc.edu and casp.uw@gmail.com), or Crystal Potts, Director of State Relations at UW-Madison (crystal.potts@wisc.edu).
