Author: Jessica Griswold

Jessica is a fifth year graduate student in the Chemistry Department, in the lab of Dr. Jeffrey Johnson. Her research is primarily focused on enantioselective catalysis, developing new reactions to synthesize molecules in a single three dimensional conformation. Outside of lab she is involved in science policy and has traveled to Washington DC to advocate to policymakers on behalf of science funding. In her free time, Jessica enjoys watching any TV show starring Guy Fieri and exploring the Triangle's food scene to find the best chicken parm.
