As part of the Bicentennial Chemistry Department Alumni Symposium, Daisy Grace '20 will discuss her career path and research work since graduation.
Daisy Grace is currently a PhD candidate in Dr. Carsten Prasse's Lab in the Environmental Health & Engineering Department at Johns Hopkins University (defending in less than 2 weeks from the Lafayette Bicentennial!). She graduated from Lafayette with a B.S. in Chemistry in 2020 and is an alumna of the Galloway Lab, a Goldwater Scholar, and an NSF Graduate Research Fellow. Her current research involves the development of novel analytical approaches to simultaneously extract, prioritize, and identify toxic contaminants within environmental water matrices. In her lab, Daisy specializes in trace-level quantification of toxicants as well as applying non-targeted analyses to identify unknown chemical exposures in our environment.
