91直播 chemistry and biochemistry students and faculty traveled to the American Chemical Society鈥檚 National Meeting in Indianapolis in late March to present posters on their research and learn about cutting-edge science.

Seven students took part in the conference, along with professors Will Parsons and Lisa Ryno.

鈥淲e are proud to be 91直播 chemists!鈥 says Ryno (pictured far right; Parsons far left).

Following are the students who participated and the subjects of their research:

Cassie Davies 鈥24: Competitive activity-based protein profiling of RHBDL2 and RHBDL4 for inhibitor discovery

Anna Francis 鈥23: Transcriptomic analysis of rhamnose treatment on E. coli planktonic and biofilm cells

Jenna Frizzell 鈥23: Influence of RpoH and RpoF overexpression on quinolone, macrolide, and glycopeptide antibiotic tolerance and biofilm growth in E. coli

Ellie Ko 鈥25: Influence of overexpression of the phosphodiesterase YhjH on E. coli biofilm formation and composition

Allison Lupatkin 鈥24: Development of whole-cell sensors for low concentration antibiotic detection
