This summer, Collin received an ICRU Summer Research Fellowship. This fellowship has given Collin the opportunity to develop his abilities as a researcher. The project Collin is working on for his ICRU Research fellowship involves analyzing various transition metal catalysts with the aspirations of exploring carbon dioxide binding. Congrats Collin! 

We are also pleased to announce that Laura has been selected for the Iowa Center for Research by Undergraduates (ICRU) 2020-2021 Research Fellowship! The project Laura is working on for her ICRU research fellowship term involves the application of machine learning algorithms to problems in electronic-structure theory. This is relevant to the part of the group which uses computational tools to improve wavefunction representation for solids. Being selected for the ICRU Research Fellowship gives Laura the opportunity to commit to a long-term research project as an undergraduate student. Congrats Laura!
