There is a certain science to becoming a scientist. It doesn’t happen overnight, and it certainly isn’t easy. But for those with a passion for discovery, it is worth every painstaking effort.
Fortunately for three of ONU molecular biology majors, a new on-campus summer research program has taught them just that. Sadie VanHorn, Charlotte Wirth and Jordyn Sanner are the most recent participants of ONU’s Polar Research Experience Program in Molecular Biology.
Open to both molecular biology majors and pre-med majors, the program is a five-week summer research experience during which students work full-time in an on-campus lab, immersed in an intensive learning environment. There is no cost to the students to participate, and they receive a stipend for their work.
