Organized by Tulane's Office of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, the 3MT is an academic competition that challenges PhD students to describe their research within three minutes to a general audience. 3MT celebrates the discoveries made by research students and encourages their skill in communicating the importance of research to the broader community. Community members, as well as all Tulane faculty, staff, and students are welcome to attend this event. A reception will follow the competition.
