We are excited to announce that Freeman Lab Undergraduate Jade Dang, a recipient of the Will Froelich Honors Fellowship, has had her fellowship proposal approved! Jade will be spending the coming summer continuing her research in the Freeman Lab, using fluorescent-based methods to probe the properties of peptide-DNA and catalytic material.

The Will Froelich Honors Fellowship is awarded to incoming Honors Carolina students with their admission to UNC. The $7,500 stipend is made possible by the Froelich family, in honor of their late son. More information can be found at the Honors Carolina website. Jade hopes that with this stipend, she can help develop catalysts that will help control biomolecule levels in medical applications of biomaterials.  

We congratulate Jade on her excellent proposal, and we look forward to working with her over the summer on this important research.
