Emily Mahoney, a 4th-year Chemistry major in the RIT College of Science was awarded a prestigious Fulbright Canada-Mitacs Globalink Program Fellowship for the summer of 2020. This summer internship gives U.S. undergraduate students the opportunity to assist on advanced research projects in Canada in the areas of science, engineering, math and social sciences. After spending her fall 2019 semester studying abroad at the University of Oxford in England, Emily was interested in... gaining additional international experience, this time in a research capacity. Through the Fulbright Canada-Mitacs award, Emily was assigned to assist with research at the University of British Columbia under the direction of Dr. Shyh-Dar Li in the area of utilizing nanoparticles for genome editing. While Emily would have been working on the synthesis of the nanoparticles and the drug delivery system itself, the program was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Fulbright Canada-Mitacs program is open for applicants each year in September. Applicants must be U.S. citizens, have a competitive GPA and have at least one semester of undergraduate study left after the summer program takes place. http://bit.ly/FellowshipFulbrightCanada
