For summer, 2019, chemistry major Randall (Randy) Koziel had a National Science Foundation REU at Western Virginia University.
Randy worked with WVU Director of Graduate Studies Brian Popp on the synthetic selectivity of pharmaceutically interesting heteroaromatics, such as those found in many common non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
Randy is shown in the WVU lab, working at the lab’s glove box.
