CBC Graduating Student Spotlight: Anthony DiGirolamo

CBC Congratulations Anthony DiGirolamo as the 2023 Chemistry Outstanding Senior!

I have had such a rewarding and fulfilling experience as an undergraduate student in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. All of the professors, instructors, staff, and fellow students genuinely want you to succeed both inside the classroom and out.

I greatly appreciate how much the department encourages its students to become involved with extracurricular activities such as the peer-mentorship and ambassadorship programs.

I want to especially thank Dr. Dennis Lichtenberger and Addison Coen for allowing me to become involved with their research concerning hydrogen gas catalysis. I have loved my time in the lab and I am grateful for the opportunity to have been able to work on a research project with such exciting clean-energy implications. 

In July, I am going to start my first year at the University of Kansas School of Medicine. I feel so lucky to have had such a great experience learning and applying chemistry during my undergraduate education, and I can't wait to continue to do so in medical school.
