Dr. Jinshan Gao received a 3 year, $356,609 grant for the project, “Characterization and enrichment of glycoprotein/glycan via multi-functional free radical reagents”

The American Chemistry Society Committee on Professional Training has approved the program for the next five years. Click to read more about the guidelines for approval.

The grant will fund their project entitled ‘Development of Inhibitors of P. falciparum cGMP dependent (PfPKG) protein kinase inhibitors for malaria chemoprevention.’

The money is to fund her project ‘DNA Repair under Extreme Conditions’

The $279,000 grant will support Dr. Gao’s research project entitled “RUI: Glycan Characterization and Quantitative Analysis via Free-Radical Induced Dissociation”

An interdisciplinary team led by Dr. Dirk Vanderklein (Biology) and funded by the National Science Foundation’s Education Dept. seek to help first generation students succeed in STEM majors. Others on the project include Nina Goodey (Chemistry), Joshua Galster (EAES) and Julie Dalley (Research Academy for University Learning)

Dr. Michael Kruge, EAES and Dr. Kevin Olsen, Chemistry, studied sediment samples collected by the EPA from the Hackensack River that indicate the riverbed is laced for 22 miles with a toxic cocktail made up of dozens of contaminants, from its mouth in Newark Bay up to the Oradell Reservoir. Wochit

The American Chemical Society has named 57 members as ACS Fellows. The new fellows will be feted at the society’s fall national meeting in Philadelphia this August.

As fellows, the individuals will receive $30,000 to complete one of our Master’s programs in teaching.
