Congratulations Professor Denk!

ACS journals are soliciting authors who are underrepresented in the chemistry community (most notably those who identify as BIPOC, LGBTQ, first generation, and those with disabilities) to submit their cover art. Each participating journal issue front cover will feature the artist’s artwork, as well as an editorial written by the artist describing their artwork and story. Artists need not be chemists, but the work and editorial should have a connection to the field of chemistry.

The Department of Chemistry has announced the winners of the 2022 Inaugural Martin Henry Bosch Scholarship in Chemistry and the Brock Chittim Graduate Scholarship in Chemistry.
