Students Receive 奖 for Research Accomplishments
Faith participated in multitudes of research while studying biology.
Faith performed research on “The physiological significance of superoxide dismutase in Staphylococcus Aureus.” The research won her the 2021 Richard Holland Future Scientist Award from the Nebraska Coalition for Lifesaving Cures.
In addition to bacterial research, Faith has also studied insects. “I think it’s very beneficial to be able to apply what we’re learning in the classroom,” she said. “希望, I’ll be published in a research article someday, so that it will get me out there and help me in the future to put that on my resume.”
