Prof. Maggie Geselbracht organized a symposium in the Division of Inorganic Chemistry at the 237th national meeting of the American Chemical Society held in Salt Lake City, March 22-26. The symposium was called “Undergraduate Research at the Frontiers of Inorganic
Chemistry” and featured three half-day sessions of oral presentations both by
faculty members and undergraduate students plus a poster session.
Response to the symposium was so enthusiastic that the Division’s leadership decided to add this topic to the list of regularly contributed symposia beginning with the spring 2010 ACS meeting. Maggie says she is “very excited that the DIC is recognizing the role that
undergraduate institutions and undergraduate research plays in
expanding the frontiers of science.”
