delivering world-class medical care, treatment and counseling. We recently caught up with four recent PLU graduates who are making an impact in health care; here they share their specialty areas, their motivations and the role PLU played in preparing them for their careers. Andrew Reyna, Medical Student, Oregon Health & Sciences University School of Medicine PLU Graduation Year: 2011 Degree: B.S. Biology Hometown: Salem, Ore. Current Residence: Portland, Ore. What sort of medical doctor are you planning

of the PLU Yule Boutique and a key member of the chemistry family emeriti.  Larry trained many students in research and has always enjoyed the types of chemical puzzles that we encounter in the lab and that he would often craft for students when he taught the Organic Special Projects Laboratory. We count on endowments like this as well as others listed at our Endowments and Scholarships page to help support the large number of students who wish to do summer research each year.  Even so, there are

environment created by the interaction of committed basic scientists, research-oriented physicians, and postdoctoral fellows. Depending on their special interests, trainees will spend their rotations in a clinical research or a laboratory research setting. Trainees will be matched with a faculty mentor who shares their research interests and will participate in the mentor’s ongoing research projects. Trainees attend a daily Lunch & Learn series designed specifically for them, as well as other clinical and

complete list of restrictions and eligibility requirements online). The chosen undergraduates taking part in this ten-week program will receive hands-on nanoscience and technology experience through research, with applications to bio-engineering, chemistry, electronics, materials science, optics, optoelectronics, physics, and the life sciences. CNF REU interns work with their assigned faculty and graduate students on projects using the unique resources offered at CNF and Cornell University

advances in optoelectronics, in turn, rely increasingly on advances in the synthesis of highly precise materials and the integration of different materials into functional optoelectronic devices and systems. IMOD is developing new classes of optoelectronic materials, devices, and systems with unprecedented functionality based on solution-processed inorganic materials. Research projects within IMOD labs cover a broad range of disciplines, including chemistry, physics, materials science & engineering

projects during the summer at Seattle Children’s Research Institute under the mentorship of experienced researchers and principal investigators. Students will learn to use lab equipment (as applicable), meet with mentors and gain valuable research experience. Students will also attend career and professional training sessions on topics such as writing abstracts, résumé writing, cultivating interview skills, crafting an effective LinkedIn profile and more. The program will culminate with each intern

chemical alternatives, reduce hazardous and solid wastes, conserve energy and water, reduce water contaminants and emissions, increase efficiency and cost savings, and improve employee health and safety. These pollution prevention internship projects will benefit Washington’s waterways and other natural resources. Washington Sea Grant (WSG) and the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) administer the program in tandem. Individual Interns work for a Host Business and will have access to

. Participating students will interact closely with faculty and graduate student mentors to develop and advance research projects revolving around oceanographic data analysis. Students will attend overview lectures on fundamental problems in different oceanography fields, including physical, biological, and chemical oceanography as well as marine geology and geophysics. They will gain a basic understanding and hands-on experience in data science techniques, including time series analysis and machine learning

, 2024, on Cornell University’s Ithaca campus. The program will provide training in the concepts and experimental approaches central to understanding microbial interactions with eukaryotic hosts. Students will learn about broad diversity of microbe-eukaryote interactions through conducting independent research projects, weekly research group meetings, seminars by CIHMID faculty, Microbial Friends & Foes Synthesis Panels, the CIHMID Summer Symposium, and the Microbial Friends & Foes Closing Symposium
