Annual CHM 371 Core Lab Poster Session
The Annual CHM 371 Core Lab Poster Session was held in the Frick Lab atrium on Thursday, January 7. Twenty-five junior chemistry majors presented their experimental work completed as part of the course curriculum. For most of the students, the event was their first experience presenting and explaining their work to fellow researchers. Members of the Department of all levels of study attended to make that first exposure a rewarding one.
The following posters were presented:
Programming LabVIEW to Collect, Analyze, and Save Spectroscopy Data – Tessa Myren, Jae-Son Song
Optimization of Silver Nanoparticles for Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy – Monica Wei, Ashley Tsue, Nyssa Emerson (GS)
