Our iSci student symposium, Synthesis, takes place every year giving students a place to present their research work, participate in workshops and hear from exciting guest speakers. It’s a unique academic symposium run entirely by students enrolled in the iSci program.

Created in 2012, Synthesis is designed for iSci students to showcase the work they complete in upper years, including individual projects and fourth-year theses. It also serves to communicate the importance of interdisciplinary research to the greater McMaster community. Since its inception, Synthesis has continually grown, serving as an excellent means of highlighting the remarkable work done by iSci students. In addition, the symposium features a number of notable speakers from McMaster and beyond, as well as a workshop catered to high school students interested in a multidisciplinary approach to science.
