Biophysics Abroad

Molecular Biophysics Stockholm again hosted two US undergraduates through the DIS-Study Abroad in Scandinavia Stockholm program in Spring 2019. Under the supervision of Reba Howard and Urška Rovšnik, Sarah Komon (Wheaton College) and Nicole Sanford (St Olaf College) worked ≥20 hours per week on independent projects in the Ligand-Gated Ion Channels team throughout the term, including data collection at both the Science for Life Laboratory and Umeå University. Each presented a research poster at the DIS End-of-Semester Symposium, 7 May 2019 at Stockholm’s Kungliga Musikhögskolan. For an interview with Komon and Sanford regarding their experiences, visit the DIS blog Discover Study Abroad.

Two new DIS students will initiate research projects with the team in Fall 2019. For more information, contact Reba or DIS-Stockholm.
