Maddie Tibayan: Recipient of the Undergrad Award in Analytical Chemistry

Congratulations to Maddie Tibayan who was selected as the ACS Undergraduate Awardee in Analytical Chemistry.

"My name is Maddie Tibayan, and I am a junior studying Chemistry and a W.A. Franke Honors College student. This summer, I had the privilege of participating in the Undergraduate Biology Research Program (UBRP), where I joined Dr. Pemberton's Analytical Chemistry group. Our research currently explores the characteristics of a new functional material we have termed Glyonic Liquids.

This semester, I've enjoyed taking Dr. Marty's mass spectrometry class and Dr. Aspinwall's instrumentation lecture. With my minor in government and public policy, I have also developed an interest in science policy and diplomacy. In my free time, I enjoy playing the piano, spending time with my dog Virgil, and serving as the president of the Filipino American Student Association (FASA)."
