Rachel will be delivering and podium presentation related to her work on the fate and transport of indoor wildfire sourced volatile organic compounds using Chemical Ionization Mass Spetrometry (CIMS).
Rachel notes that “I am grateful to be able to attend the conference with this award. I am hoping to use this opportunity to broaden the impact of my work and expand my network by meeting students and professionals from diverse fields. I also look forward to learning from research projects outside of my subject area.”
The 2-½ day conference will be held in early April and hosted by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), Inclusive STEM Ecosystems for Equity & Diversity (ISEED) Programs and the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Equity for Excellence in STEM (EES) within the Directorate for STEM Education (EDU).
