Matthew Orellana (Ph.D., Organic Chemistry, Expected 2023) received the ACS Bridge Career and Professional Development Award in 2022. The award afforded him the opportunity to present his research, network with industries and ACS divisions of interest, and participate in career development workshops at the 2022 National Organic Symposium (NOS) and American Chemical Society (ACS) Fall National Meeting. He was excited to represent the Chemistry Department at UC Davis and shared his research on the synthesis of lipids and fluorescent probes with azides and terminal alkynes at these meetings. Matthew thanks the ACS Bridge Committee and Donors for the award.
Bao Vue (PhD, organic chemistry, expected ’23) received the ACS Bridge Career and Professional Development Award for traveling and presenting her work on the study of silicon NMR characterization and continuous flow synthesis of per-O-TMS sialic acid and regioselective O-acetylated-sialic acid. This award provided an interactive avenue to share her research on method development using silicon NMR monitoring and reduction of synthesis steps on O-acetylated polyhydroxyl natural products. In addition, this award offered extensive networking opportunities with government agencies, industries, and fresh starter entrepreneurs.
