Welcome to the lab Elias and Morgan!
Today, the lab added 2 new prospective graduate students in Elias and Morgan.
Elias comes to us from Grove City College where he studied biochemistry and was a First Team All-PAC swimmer. He will explore the crossover between organic and inorganic chemistry and biochemistry to address the need for novel antibiotics.
Morgan is a graduate of Bucknell University, where she focused on cell biology and biochemistry. She will utilize this background to better understand how Listeria is able to continue to be a worldwide foodborne pathogen with recent outbreaks in the United States and Canada!
WELCOME to the team!

The summer research season has come to a bittersweet ending. As the last activity of the summer, the undergraduates presented all of their hard work at the Regional Undergraduate Research Symposium here at Duquesne University.
