, she told her mom: “I’m going to be a neurosurgeon!” In the following years, her decision was cemented by books she read in middle school classrooms, biology classes she took in high school, and eventually, the teachers and mentors she met at Pacific Lutheran University. Now, the Bonney Lake, Washington native has graduated and earned a prestigious Fulbright research grant — a national award that only 20 percent of applicants receive after a rigorous, year-long application process. In January, she

Dave Song Research GroupResearch in the Song lab centers on understanding the fundamental mechanisms of energy conversion in chemistry and biology. Our primary focus revolves around the transfer of both the proton and electron in biological catalysis via a ubiquitous mechanism called proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), underpinning key metabolic processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, and nucleotide reduction. The mechanistic complexities associated with the inherently dual particle

May 6, 2011 Nobel Prize laureate Edmond Fischer talks to PLU chemistry and biology students about the joys and frustrations of research work last Friday, May 6. (Photo by John Froschauer) Nobel laureate talks about the unpredictability of biochemistry…and it’s just plain fun. By Barbara Clements For Nobel Laureate Edmond Fischer, the most exciting part about research is that you’re never sure quite where you’re going to end up. The 91-year-old professor emeritus at the University of Washington
