Biochemistry sophomore, Chloe Seluchins applied for and was selected to attend the University of Florida Health Cancer Center Research Showcase on an expense paid trip. The program provides cancer research highlights by UF trainees, information on Ph.D. pathways and a career panel. Attendees are invited as special guests to the annual UF Health Cancer Center Research Showcase on Jan. 31, featuring more than 150 faculty and trainee research posters.
At the symposium, Chloe learned about graduate schools and careers in cancer research. She attended several symposia on epigenetics and cancer research. It was an amazing opportunity to further her knowledge and learn more about potential opportunities for her future. If you or your student is interested in applying for this opportunity next year, the applications are due in November.
Becki (Shook) Schneitzinger (L) and Jenn (Kurek) Wohn (Center) took a photo with Dr. Tracey Mason at a shower to celebrate the impending arrival of baby Wohn. Becki and Jenn both graduated with a BS in Chemistry from Stevenson where they were classmates, and have led very successful careers. Becki, who received her MBA in 2016, is a Regulatory Specialist for ILC Dover, while Jenn, who received her MS in Biochemistry from the University of Delaware in 2014, is a Compliance Safety and Health officer for the U.S. Department of Labor.
Students who participated in research either in the summer or fall 2023 presented their research at an end of the semester poster session in the department. Communicating findings orally is an important skill that we encourage students to develop during their time at Stevenson.
