Research Achievements

Trainee begins interdisciplinary work

One IGERT associate (supported by CUNY and the Chancellor's office of CUNY because she is first year) will have completed her first year course requirements this year. She has started her research project that is interdisciplinary and collaborative between Hunter College and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) on development of ligands for zirconium-89 for Positron Emission Tomography (PET). She is installed in labs at both institutions and has been involved in organic, inorganic and radiochemistry with respect to her project. An achievement is that, even though she is a first year graduate student, she is presenting a poster at the IGERT poster competition this year on her work.

the first IGERT trainee is also a first year student who is in the program at Missouri. She is beginning her project that is collaborative between MU and Hunter on environmental technetium - 99 chemistry.
