The University of Florida College of Medicine Celebration of Research is their annual event recognizing their college’s research excellence.
They aim to establish new collaborations and celebrate existing ones among faculty, postdocs, and graduate students — inspiring all their learners to become successful lifetime researchers.

However, with more than 500 research posters and more than 1,000 attendees, their celebration requires a high level of organization.

"The Fourwaves platform has centralized everything into one convenient location, both for organizers and attendees.

Our team is able to efficiently review posters submitted by investigators and make them public to view on the day of the event.
Fourwaves also streamlines our calendar of events, maps, and other details for easy access by everyone!
Thanks to the platform, our event continues to thrive and commemorate the achievements of our college."

-Todd Barnash, Research Administration Manager

Transforming the Molecular and Cellular Cognition Society's approach to managing their annual event, which took place in Chicago this year, especially as they collected payments for the first time, was Dr.Karyn Frick’s main objective.

With Fourwaves, that goal became a reality.

"Centralizing everything—from payments to refunds—gave us peace of mind, allowing us to focus on delivering a successful event instead of being tied up in logistical details." said Dr. Karyn Frick, a distinguished professor and neuroscience expert at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee.

"The real game-changer was the financial side—we didn’t have to manage credit cards, and the administrative dashboard gave us a complete overview of participants, registrations, and finances in one place. It truly was a one-stop solution. We even set up a QR code for last-minute, on-site registrations, which eliminated the hassle of manual check-ins."

The financial tools were crucial for Dr. Frick and the MCCS team:
✅ Real-time tracking of registrations and submissions
✅ Effortless payment management and reporting
✅ Simple refund processing when necessary
✅ Clear data to finalize catering and assess profitability

"Fourwaves made the entire event management process seamless. The platform was intuitive, and the registration process ran flawlessly."

✨ We are thrilled to announce the recipient of the Fourwaves Excellence Scholarship in Environmental Science for 2024! ✨

We are excited to highlight the exceptional work of Véronique Ducharme, a master’s student in chemical engineering at the Université de Sherbrooke, who is pushing the boundaries of sustainability in energy under the supervision of Bruna Rego de Vasconcelos.

“This new technology could revolutionize clean energy use and drastically reduce reliance on fossil fuels while allowing industries to maintain their existing infrastructure.” — Véronique Ducharme

Véronique’s groundbreaking research focuses on converting combustion gases into low-carbon fuels, offering a potentially transformative solution for managing industrial emissions without requiring costly changes to existing systems.

Congratulations Véronique!
