Ira Miller - Chemistry '21

Ira participated in an NSF funded Research Experience for Undergraduates program at the University of North Texas. His lab focused on the optimization of the photosensitizer in solar energy cells. In particular, Ira worked on synthetic strategies for these photosensitizers that optimize the bond strength between the porphyrin dimers and C60.

Courtney Herr - Biochemistry '20

This summer [2019] I worked at Lehigh Valley Health Network in their Summer Research Scholar Program. My specific project was focused on quality improvement in the Children’s Cancer Center outpatient clinic. The 8 weeks that I spent here were dedicated to improving patient flow and colleague engagement, which was a great experience to prepare me for a future career in medicine.

Bailey Rhodes - Chemistry ACS Certified '20

Bailey was exposed to "cutting-edge materials chemistry research in a top-notch research facility," through an NSF Research Experience for Undergraduates at the University of Texas. Bailey's research focused on a brush-length variation of polymer-wrapped indium oxide nanocrystals.

Brad Nase - Chemistry ACS Certified '19

During the summer of 2018, I worked as an intern for Coatings for Industry. I was involved in formulation, testing and analysis of new coatings. This internship led me to my first job after graduation.

Caitlyn Fong - Chemistry '19

During the summer of 2018, I was able to combine my interests in chemistry and art conservation with an internship as a Conservation Studio Assistant with Johnson and Griffiths. I assisted with the historical restoration of a suite in the Pennsylvania State Capitol Building.

Sarah O'Boyle - Chemistry ACS Certified '19

During the summer of 2018, I had an NSF REU position through the University of West Virginia and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. I characterized and made exposure assessments for silver nanoparticles that are components in sanitizer spray products.
