Ashley is currently a Pre-Med honors student majoring in Chemistry at Ball State. This is her first academic research experience and she will be synthesizing fatty acid mimics derived from hydrophobic amino acids that can be utilized to prepare analogues of a natural product, ipomoeassin F, as novel inhibitors of the Sec61-mediated protein translocation at […]
Jada finished her high school diploma at the Neuqua Valley High School in Naperville, Illinois. She is currently a junior Pre-Med student majoring in Exercise Science at Ball State. This is her first academic research experience and she will be synthesizing a glucose monosaccharide precursor in collaboration with another undergraduate student.
Julia finished her high school diploma at the Bellmont High School in Decatur, IN. She is currently a senior undergraduate student majoring in both Chemistry, and Natural Resources & Environmental Management at Ball State University. She has previous research experience synthesizing photocatalytic nanomaterials, and she will be improving her organic synthesis skills by preparing glucose, […]
Hayden finished his high school diploma at the Heyworth High School in Heyworth, IL. He is currently a sophomore Pre-Dentistry student majoring in Biology at Ball State. This is his first academic research experience and he will be synthesizing a glucose intermediate in collaboration with another undergraduate student.
Congratulations to Lauren Andrews for being awarded an Honors Undergraduate Research Fellowship to support her research in Spring 2020. The short-term goal of Lauren’s research is to make an arabinose intermediate that can be used to make novel derivatives of ipomoeassin F, a natural product strongly inhibiting protein translocation. Biological evaluation of the molecules will […]
Congratulations to Princess Walker for being one of the 2019-2020 Park Wiseman Award winners! This scholarship was established by a former Ball State student, Dr. Robert G. Reed and his wife, Carlene in honor of Professor Emeritus, Dr. Park Wiseman who was a faculty member in the Department of Chemistry from 1947 to 1982 and […]
