Great presentation 🎉 by our undergraduate thesis student Daisee Lubrin at #SOUSCC51 chemistry conference 2023! 🧪

Daisee’s research is interdisciplinary project combining chemical biology & forensic science knowledge to create biosensors for forensic applications 🕵🏽

[Desaulniers Lab @DesaulniersLab]

Congratulations to @VanessaAffe for successfully completing her Undergraduate Student Research Award term by #NSERC at our lab. And for giving a great oral presentation today at #SOUSCC51 chemistry conference!

Scoring top 5 in the chemical biology session! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[Desaulniers Lab @DesaulniersLab]

Alex is part of an NSERC CREATE "Programmed Molecules for Therapeutics, Sensing and Diagnostics"(PROMOTE) program. He selected our lab @ontariotech_u for his research exchange to gain experience conducting in-vitro siRNA studies & learn to synthesis photodynamic agents. 🧬

[Desaulniers Lab @DesaulniersLab]

We would like to welcome our exchange student Alexander Pontarelli, a 3rd year PhD student from @WildsLab at Concordia University.🧪
