range of 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

Trust, professor of chemistry Neal Yakelis and his collaborators from two other Puget Sound area universities are working to adapt this concept for their research. “It never ceases to amaze me how my students transform into young scientists through their work in the lab during our summer research program at PLU,” said Professor Yakelis. “This project has allowed them to experience the collaboration necessary to answer important scientific questions. The students’ creativity and meticulous work have

,” he said.“Learning about those kinds of things, where science intersects with social factors, was really key there. That’s probably been the main thing across the board for all my environmental classes at PLU: There are intersections between environmental issues and the people living in the surrounding area.” Evanishyn chose English as his other major. He hoped to sharpen his storytelling skills, having long dreamed of writing and producing for television. In 2019, he found an outlet for his
