2023 BAMIT Research Slam

"Research is formalized curiosity.  It is poking and prying with a purpose." 
-- Zora Neale Hurston
 

Join BAMIT in celebrating the outstanding "formalized curiosity" of Black MIT alums and students at the 2023 BAMIT Research Slam, Thursday, February 23, 2022, at 7:30pm Eastern.

Black MIT alums and students will have 5 minutes to present their research using only 1 slide in a fast-paced virtual pitch competition. Prepare to be impressed! The breadth of research projects and the intellectual talents of our Black colleagues will inspire and delight. Competition judges will award up to $2,000 in prizes.

You can join the fun too, learning about new ideas, asking questions, offering constructive criticism, and giving encouragement. You can also participate in the live polling which will contribute to an audience-choice award to complement the judges' communications awards.

Slam Presenters: 

Crystan McLymore - MIT
Cadence Payne '20 - MIT
Quilee Simeon '21 - MIT
Jonas Sogbadji - MIT
Julia Wilcots '22 - Princeton
Michael West '20 - MIT
