Biology major Maya Bryant was awarded 3rd place in the John C. Johnson Award for Excellence in Student Research in late March when she presented her poster “The Effects of Nicotine-Free E-cigarette Vapor Condensate on the Viability of RAW 264.7 Cells” at the NE Region District II Tri-Beta Convention at Bloomsburg University. This work, mentored by Dr. Kari Heckman, was funded in part by a research grant from the Tri-Beta National Biological Honor Society that was awarded to Maya in Fall 2018. Shortly after graduation in May 2019, Maya will be beginning a 12 month accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree program at SUNY-Binghamton.
