Congratulations to chemistry major Jason Pflueger, who has been awarded an undergraduate summer research fellowship by the ACS Division of Organic Chemistry.  Jason will be working in the laboratory of Professor Scott Snyder, where he will assist Prof. Snyder in synthesizing unique natural products derived from resveratrol, a polyphenol found in red wine that is believed to have interesting health benefits.  Jason will receive the fellowship award of $5,000 and have the opportunity to visit an industrial campus at the end of the summer for a dinner, scientific talks, a tour of the campus, and a poster session where the results of the summer research projects of fellowship award winners will be presented.  You can read more about research in the Snyder lab on their group website.
