Chad Studvick
<\/strong>Email: cms457@uakron.edu

Chad graduated from Gannon University in 2021 with a B.S. in Chemistry. In his undergraduate research, he studied the likelihood of encountering contaminants in commercially available polymers, through the use of electrochemical analysis, under the guidance of Dr. Keith Krise. Currently, Chad is in his third year of the chemistry Ph.D. program at Akron. His current work uses computational chemistry to look at bonding characteristics in unusually low or high oxidation state actinide\/lanthanide molecular compounds as well as redox properties of charge carriers holding promise for redox flow batteries. In his free time, Chad likes cross country running, biking, and reading classic literature.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

Jonah is an undergraduate student at the University of Akron and is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry. After being homeschooled for 12 years, he finished High School in the Spring of 2021 with an average GPA of 3.95. During his Sophomore and Junior years, he developed an interest in classical Chemistry under his teacher, Mr. Hnat. This, combined with a fascination with nuclear reactions, inspired him to pursue a career in Quantum Chemistry. He is currently in the second semester of his freshmen year at UA. Outside of school, his hobbies and interests include digital music composition, Lego collecting\/design, writing, and gaming. His ultimate goal in his field is to solve the mystery of sustainable Nuclear Fusion energy.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
