Robinson’s lecture, “Nanoparticles 101: Small Particles, Big Impact!” will introduce attendees to the vast power and applications of nanoparticles. November 16 at 11 a.m. in JRC 101.

Another story in the Summer MAP Series. Gracie Song ’25 jumped headfirst into laboratory research, using a tricky technique to study the structure of a mutated protein.

Grinnell’s 3-2 partnerships grant students their B.A., B.S., and an engineering education unlike any other.

Research opportunities enabled by this grant will enhance the education and experiences of Grinnell students, as Graham aligns his teaching and research projects with crucial issues such as climate change.

The grant will allow Ortiz, assistant professor of chemistry, to launch a new line of research and apply her expertise in nanoparticle synthesis to the creation of “nanozymes.”

Join organic chemistry students in the lab for a fly-on-the-wall experience of their investigations, collaboration, and antics.

On the thirtieth anniversary of the Grinnell Science Project, the Student Assistants of GSP reflect on community, confidence, and becoming ambassadors to their peers.

Clark Lindgren, Keisuke Hasegawa, Pascal Lafontant, Vida Praitis, Josh Sandquist, and Mark Levandoski were awarded the NSF Major Research Instrumentation grant to purchase a laser scanning confocal microscope, a breakthrough in the research capabilities of faculty and students throughout the sciences at Grinnell.

Organic Chemistry I (CHM 221) is a collaborative course in which you work with other students during labs to practice teamwork, study scientific concepts, and support one another. The course focuses on structures, reactions, synthesis, and spectroscopy of compounds. You will familiarize yourself with procedures, practice documentation, and gain hands-on experience with tools and materials used in a chemistry lab.

Bioorganic Chemistry (CHM 330) focuses on enzymes, proteins that are catalysts within cells. This in-depth study of enzymes allows you to explore advanced biochemistry, applying principles and techniques you learned in organic chemistry to the study of biological reactions.
