questions that help me recall my own knowledge on the subject. I get to meet new people and be uber-nerdy all the time, which is great for me. Who did you conduct chemistry research with, and on what topic? I did one summer of ecology research in the summer of 2021, developing PCR tests similar to COVID tests for a specific fungal pathogen that affects snakes. In the summer of 2022, I was in Dr. Waldow’s chemistry lab working on synthesizing new conductive polymers. I was working on organic materials
