BUGS/Jr. End of Summer Research Symposium is right around the corner! It will be held at the Michelson Center for Convergent Bioscience on the first floor - August 4th and 5th! RSVP NOW!! #fighton #2023BUGS

[USC Bridge Institute @USCBridge]

We got to hangout with one of our BUGS undergrad students in their lab! Josh S. who is working under PI: Mara Mather and Mentor: Andy Kim is looking at discovering how changes in noradrenergic activity contributes to age-related changes in attention and cognitive function!

A team of researchers in the Department of Chemistry here at USC have made a significant discovery for the field of Organic Chemistry. Watch out for their research to be detailed in their June 2023 issue of Nature Chemistry! #uscdepartmentofchem #fighton #naturechemistry

[Shubhangi Aggarwal @Shubha_ggarwal]

Can we expand the reactive chemical space by involving aromatic rings in synthesis? 🧐
Overjoyed to witness my graduate work find its home @NatureChemistry. Thank you team @FokinLabUSC @USCChemistry @USCBridge 🎉
