Congratulations to chemistry graduate student Dan Treitler on receiving the 2010 Sigma-Aldrich Graduate Student Innovation Award (GSIA) and the Roche Excellence in Chemistry Award. Dan has been honored for his work in the laboratory of Professor Scott Snyder. He is one of just 5 recipients nationwide of the Aldrich Award and one of just 11 recipients of the Roche Award.
The Aldrich award includes a $5K stipend to be used for research consumables and travel and expense-paid travel to participate in a GSIA symposium and a tour of the Sigma Milwaukee facility. The Roche Award includes a crystal, an honorarium, and the opportunity to participate in a two-day Roche symposium highlighting the role of organic chemistry in pharmaceutical discovery.
More information about the work of Professor Snyder's research group can be found on the group website.
