DPT Students Present At 2016 SDSU Student Research Symposium!

Several DPT students presented their research at the 2016 SDSU Student Research Symposium (SRS). The SRS provides an opportunity for SDSU students to present their scholarly work. DPT faculty members mentored several students who earned awards.

A list of the presentations are below (DPT student presenters are indicated in italics, DPT faculty are indicated in bold.)
