Sunday night, we came together as a lab (with families too) and ventured downtown for a lab dinner to celebrate everything that we accomplished this summer. It was a great time at Alta Via and will become a Heisler Lab tradition!
P.S. Why do PI’s always look so awkward in photos?
Not sure I can articulate how thankful I am for the craziness that this summer has been in the lab, but this team shows up every morning happy, excited to try and learn, and give it their best! So ladies, thank you for everything you do and here is to hoping a lot of success comes from this for the lab, but more important each of you in your future endeavors.

This summer, the Heisler lab welcome FIVE new students to the lab!
Erin (Carlow University) and Ellen (University of Arizona) come to us as part of the Pain and Neurodegenerative Undergraduate Research Experience (PURE and NURE) program here at Duquesne.
Zoe (Bryn Mawr) come to us as part of the The Integrated Computational and Experimental Chemistry NSF-REU Program here at Duquesne. Zoe will be co-advised with Dr. Rita Mihailescu (Duquesne).
Adisyn and Trista (Duquesne University) were selected as part of the Summer Departmental Undergraduate Research Program (URP).
Megan will be back in the lab this summer as well as part of URP.
Here is to a busy but hopefully very successful summer!
Congrats to Elizabeth on her honorable mention at the 37th annual ACS Regional Symposium held here at Duquesne.
Elizabeth will be presenting at the Undergraduate Research and Scholarship Symposium here at Duquesne next week! Check out a summary of her work:
