Sara is an undergraduate majoring in chemical engineering who started working for the MMBH group fall 2002. She’s been building on earlier C-H activation chemistry and expanding the current C-H activation system to amines.

Ryan earned his PhD working in Paul Chirik’s lab at Cornell University.  He is currently a post-doctoral fellow at Los Alamos National Laboratory.

Daniel entered the University of Michigan in the fall of 2000 and signed up for the introductory chemistry course.  This fateful decision was followed by taking the course section that Prof. Banaszak Holl was teaching.  At the end of the semester he inquired about opportunities for chemical research.  Since January of 2001 he has been performing Atomic Force Microscopy experiments on dendrimeric drug delivery agents and cells.

Tyson is an undergraduate at the University of Michigan. He worked in the group with Zuzanna Cygan in the fall of 2001.

Marina is an undergraduate from the University of Genoa working on her dissertation for her bachelors degree. She is working on the chemistry of thin films of HSQ resin.

Yixin worked with us in the summer of 2011 imaging dentin collagen using AFM.  He is currently a student at Southeast University in Nanjing, China.

Amy worked with us during Summer of 1997.

Elizabeth worked with us in the summer of 2011 helping to introduce microfluidic patch-clamp methods to the group. She is an undergraduate at Radford College.

Jordan worked with our group from 1996 to 1997.

Rachelle Richardson is fourth year undergraduate at Xavier University of Louisiana in New Orleans, where she currently works in the research lab of Dr. Stassi DiMaggio synthesizing and purifying dendrimer conjugates. She presently is majoring in chemistry and minoring in Spanish and hopes that somehow in her career she can use her knowledge of the Spanish language. When not at school or in the lab she thoroughly enjoys traveling, doing Sudoku puzzles, and listening to good music. After graduation, she plans to attend graduate school to obtain a doctorate degree in organic chemistry. In the future, she aspires to work in a medicinal lab, designing drugs and drug delivery systems.

Gül is a fourth year undergraduate, majoring in chemistry at Boðaziçi University, Ýstanbul. She works with Assoc. Prof. Amitav Sanyal’s research group since 2010. She participated in the Banaszak Holl group for the summer 2012. She works on synthesis and functionalization of dendrimers to be used in targeted drug delivery.

Emilee graduated from  Michigan with degrees in Neuroscience and Spanish. She was part of the Banaszak Holl group for three years, working with Doug Mullen, on the synthesis and characterization of functionalized PAMAM dendrimers as targeted drug delivery agents.  Emilee obtained her M.D. at the Indiana University School of Medicine and is currently a resident in anesthesia at the  University of Utah medical school.
