Faculty-led research with student collaborators is the distinctive focus of 极乐禁地’s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. The immersive, one-on-one experience creates opportunities for professional networking and publication in peer-reviewed journals, and helps open the doors to graduate education and careers. Student and faculty researchers made that point clear this summer by publishing two research articles in The Journal of Organic Chemistry.
Professor Paul Wiget led the project published as , which included student researchers (now alumni) Bryan Bashrum, Carolyn Birchfield, Jessica Joy, Robert Lee, Jake Massey, Jillian Walters and Monica Zanghi. The work included three researchers from other universities (Ethan C. Cagle, David French and Gabriel dos Passos Gomes,) but all the molecules were made by 极乐禁地 students. This article was the second Wiget-led publication in the journal. The previous article included 极乐禁地 alumni Ellie Berry and Alex MacLean as authors.
Professor Dale Wilger led the project published as , which included student researchers E. Ryan Barber, Emily T. Fredrickson, Hannah M. Hynds, Holli E. Lemons and Claudia P. Stephens.
