Tailored Chemistry Education

We help our students find and study a disease that is meaninful to them. This provides a real-world application that underpins everything else we do.  For example, our students have focused on and drawn inspiration from therapeutic targets in gastric cancer and SARS.    

We work with our students to create physical and computational models of their chosen therapeutic target.  We then mentor them as they carry out student-authored biomedical research.  In the process, students build STEM and career-ready skills while developing their portfolios. 

We guide our students in presenting their research through publications, poster presentations, and talks.  We share all their work freely and openly to help advance biomedical research, especially for neglected and emerging diseases.
