Bio:

Dr. Megan Grunert Kowalske has dedicated her career to enhancing diversity and equity in the chemical sciences. Her research projects have been supported by the National Science Foundation and explore the structural and systemic ways that students from historically excluded groups continue to be marginalized in the chemical sciences and STEM higher education.

She was the recipient of the 2021 蜜桃社区 Emerging Scholar Award and the 2021 蜜桃社区 Excellence in Diversity Award.
