<strong>Undergrad</strong>uate Research at UMass Dartmouth<br />

My summer research involvement at UMass<br />

Dartmouth has been one of the most rewarding<br />

experiences of my undergraduate career. I had the<br />

pleasure of working with k<strong>no</strong>wledgeable lab mates<br />

who were always willing to help, explain, and teach<br />

any skills necessary for me to be successful in my<br />

research. I would like greatly thank Dr. David Manke,<br />

working with him has inspired me to become the<br />

best chemist that I can and more. The experience<br />

has also significantly reaffirmed my goals of going<br />

to graduate school to obtain a Ph.D. in Chemistry.<br />

I would like to thank the Office of <strong>Undergrad</strong>uate<br />

Research for funding this research, without their aid,<br />

this research experience would have <strong>no</strong>t been possible.<br />

We are currently preparing two manuscripts<br />

that we hope to submit to peer-reviewed journals for<br />

publication this fall. I plan on continuing this work<br />

for the remaining two years at UMass Dartmouth,<br />

and hope that my research accomplishments will<br />

make me competitive for an NSF graduate research<br />

fellowship. The OUR has given me the opportunity to<br />

follow one of my life-long goals.<br />
