2017 Jul 20

Nar Lin, of Pittsfield, MA, is one of 120 students working this summer in Union College's summer research program.

Lin, a member of the Class of 2019, is working in the Chemistry department on a project titled "Synthesis of Cuticular Hydrocarbons in Drosophila Athabasca."

Union College students are working closely with 64 faculty stretched across 23 departments and programs. Most projects are funded through the undergraduate research program. The rest are supported by government or scientific society grants to faculty members, academic departments, and/or with foundation funding. The projects support Union's commitment to undergraduate research, one that rivals the experience found at larger universities.
