My experience learning about DNA Nanotechnology was outside of my undergraduate curriculum and opened up a sincere interest in molecular biology that continued past this project. Without the mentorship in doing this project, I would not be in a very technical and rewarding field that I’m in today in next-generation sequencing! I felt challenged, engaged, and had the opportunity to travel and explore more about science at the American Chemical Society’s conference in Miami, Florida. I really appreciated the extra attention from the faculty to complete a detailed project on something that truly sparked connections and interest to the skills I learned during my degree. It really helped my degree show me something tangible beyond scores.
