Hello, my name is Caitlin Callahan! I am so delighted and honored to be serving as your president this year! I am a psychology major with a minor in applied statistics and data science. This is my fourth year in the Undergraduate Research Club; in the past I held the marketing officer position for two years. My current research focuses on burnout in college students and the many factors that contribute to mental health, such as discrimination and social support. Through my minor in data science, I have analyzed data sets in sports statistics, heart disease, personal medical insurance costs, and many other topics. I hope to use these skills in an applied statistics or data science graduate program in the future as well as become a full-time data scientist as a career. You can find me on campus working for the Office of Undergraduate Research as a peer mentor where I give guidance to first-year students getting their start in collegiate research.

Outside of school, I love camping, hiking, kayaking, and basically anything active. My favorite hike I have done was at Saint Mary’s Glacier in Colorado. I also love animals and currently have two cats, Willow and Ivy, named after Taylor Swift songs!

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about Undergraduate Research Club, or if you have any general questions about research!

Hello there! My name is Diya Patel, and I am a sophomore pursuing a degree in psychology with a pre-med concentration. As someone who is passionate about helping others, I have always been drawn to the field of medicine. With my background in psychology, I hope to bring a unique perspective to the field of healthcare and make a difference in people's lives. Apart from academics, I love getting involved in extracurricular activities that allow me to grow as a leader and serve my community. I am thrilled at the opportunity to serve as your Vice President for the upcoming academic year and contribute to the success of our organization. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns!

Amelia is currently a junior at Kennesaw State University working towards a degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering.  She was previously in the First Year Scholars Program where she worked with Dr. Roneisha Worthy on “Exploring the Use of Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase to Enhance Compost Nitrogen Content”, which was then shown at the Symposium of Student Scholars in the spring of 2022. She is also entering her second year of being a Peer Mentor and is a Student Assistant for the Office of Undergraduate Research. Since starting at Kennesaw State University, she has been able to gain undergraduate research experience and familiarize herself with the Office of Undergraduate Research. In her free time, she enjoys reading, gardening, and baking. She would like to let incoming freshmen know that while undergraduate research can present challenges, it is rewarding in the end.

Hello, my name is Chandler Keown, and I am a senior psychology major looking into grad school. My end goal is to be a therapist for teens and young adults and in the meantime, I am looking to understand the theories and research behind the steps necessary to help someone in therapy. In addition, I am curious about the nature of research that comes from other fields than that of just psychology. As your Marketing officer, I feel it is necessary to be able to meet each of you where you are and recognize the different cultural, spiritual, or any other socioeconomic backgrounds that compose our campus. I hope to make the Undergraduate Research Club a welcoming and understanding environment where questions and learning can flourish. I feel it is worth mentioning that this is my first semester as the Marketing Officer, and I will not know everything immediately. So, let’s make mistakes together and learn to grow from them! 

Outside of school, I love anything to do with puzzles or puzzle video games, as well as rock climbing, and anything to do with challenging myself to grow to learn more about myself and others. 

I also work as a Learning Assistant and have previously been a Supplemental Instructor. So if you have any questions or need any recommendations for tutors or other study materials, feel free to reach out!

StuyActivities

The stuyvesant research club.

https://www.stuyresearchclub.com/

Mission Statement:

The Research Club aims to provide students with a community to explore their scientific curiosities and resources to get involved in research.

What days does this organization meet?

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

What is the meeting schedule?

Research Club general meetings are typically held on Fridays. Each SIGMA department holds a meeting at least once every 2-3 weeks and each department has its own designated weekday to meet that does not overlap with that of other departments. SRMP meetings are held twice a month, in addition to one-on-one meetings with a mentor as needed. Notation recording sessions are every other week.

What is the purpose of this activity?

"The Research Club provides aspiring student researchers with the resources necessary to transform their classroom knowledge into practical scientific experience. Members can choose from different branches of the club to join depending on their specific interests: gaining hands-on experience of lab techniques (general meetings), contributing to a STEM publication (SIGMA), receiving mentorship from an upperclassman to secure an internship in a lab (SRMP), having casual discussions about various topics as part of a podcast (Notation), and managing a website and social media platforms (Web Department). General meetings consist of weekly guided experiments that expose students to various biological lab techniques. In workshops, members can work on proposals or research for science competitions like Genes in Space. Special events such as symposiums or guest speakers are also occasionally held. Meetings are open to everyone and members are encouraged to, but not required to, attend the weekly meetings. SIGMA is the Research Club’s magazine, published every 1-2 months. The publication melds STEM and humanities and exposes students to scientific journalism in an accessible format. The publication relies on four departments: the Annotations, Creative Works, Layouts & Graphics, and Revisions departments. The Annotations Department defines terms and summarizes parts of the papers so that they are easier to read. The Creative Works Department writes articles about topics members are interested in. The Layouts & Graphics Department creates all of the graphics and formats the pieces. The Revisions Department makes sure that all the grammar and content is correct; members also write short lab technique reviews. SIGMA members are expected to join 1-2 departments, attend departmental meetings, and complete assignments promptly. In SRMP, or the Stuyvesant Research Mentoring Program, mentees attend workshops that provide instruction and one-on-one assistance with writing cover letters, resumes, and applications to programs, in addition to helping mentees find their interests and understand what working in a lab entails. Notation is a podcast hosted by the Research Club. In the episodes, which are released twice a month, members discuss different topics in science, including those that have been covered in past SIGMA articles. Members are expected to independently read about the topic beforehand and contribute to the discussion. The Web Department manages the Research Club website, updating it with new content as SIGMA is published and working on new features. It is also responsible for updating the Research Club’s Facebook and Instagram accounts with new information, opportunities, and meetings. "

How does this activity benefit Stuyvesant?

"The Research Club benefits Stuyvesant by fostering a community of student researchers with strengths in both conducting research and communicating effectively. Students will learn how to analyze scientific papers by editing and annotating student-written papers for Stuyvesant’s Research Club Magazine, SIGMA. SIGMA also has a creative works department so members can focus on their own creative pursuits in scientific journalism. The club helps students develop and explore their interests in the field of scientific research. For example, the club guides experiments in which students learn how to follow various protocols, how to properly handle lab equipment, and how to interpret data. The club also holds guest lectures from upperclassmen and professional scientists. The lecturers discuss the work they have done in their lab and describe their experience with scientific research. These opportunities allow a student to gain a better understanding of what scientific research entails. The Research Club helps students brainstorm ideas for scientific competition. In various meetings, students will be given the opportunity to work on completing research papers or project proposals for science competitions, such as Genes in Space. Students are given assistance by the members of the club’s board in addition to the faculty advisor in order to create stronger entries into such competitions. The Research Club also has a program specifically designed to mentor underclassmen. The Stuyvesant Research Mentoring Program (SRMP) pairs qualified upperclassmen with underclassmen, who are interested in science research. The program aims to dive deeper into student’s interests for research and secure an internship with a lab. Towards the end of the year, weekly meetings are aimed towards helping students find research opportunities outside of the school, which may include summer research programs or laboratory internships. The Stuyvesant Research Club ultimately helps students who have demonstrated an interest in scientific research but lack the experience or resources to perform research."

How does this activity appoint leaders?

The Research Club has various leadership positions to oversee specific aspects of the club as well as editors for the SIGMA publication. Appointment to a position is determined by an application and training period. The applications are open to all freshmen, sophomores, and juniors regardless of their prior experience in the club, though preference may be given to those who have contributed to the club in the past. A portion of the candidates from the application pool are selected for an interview by an interview board which consists of leaders directly involved with the position. After interviews are conducted, the leadership board discusses which candidate to select for training. The selected candidates undergo a training period, during which they work closely with the current leaders of the position they are in training for to gain experience and learn what their responsibilities are. At the end of the training period, if the trainees have performed well and demonstrated the capability to manage their positions’ responsibilities, they are appointed to their position as a leader. Leaders are expected to fulfill their tasks promptly and to communicate with other leaders of the club on a weekly basis. If a leader does not meet the expectations, they are suspended from their position while the leadership board discusses the leader’s performance and if they need to be removed. Most leaders will generally maintain the position that they were in the previous school year with applications released for positions that have an opening. New positions may be added if necessary, based on the suggestions of members of the club and the leadership board.

What makes this activity unique?

The Stuyvesant Research Club is the only club that promotes the pursuit of scientific research by providing students from all backgrounds the opportunity to be involved in several different facets that compose the scientific community, such as conducting research or disseminating findings. Students have the chance to learn techniques used by researchers in a welcoming environment, to explore their individual interests by writing articles, to apply their artistic skills to a love for STEM through creating graphics, to delve deep into topics of interest in casual conversations, to continue their exploration of scientific research through internships outside of Stuyvesant, and more!

Anything else?

No prior experience is necessary for any branch of the club! We highly encourage anyone who is interested, regardless of background knowledge, to come learn, have fun, and make friends. You can check out our website at: https://www.stuyresearchclub.com/ to learn more about us.

Geography Club Hosts Research Symposium

Geography students hosted All Points of the Compass, a one-day symposium that features research and presentations from undergraduate and graduate students, alumni and faculty.

The projects that were shared showcased the impressive diversity of research conducted by CSUF geographers. Presentations were made on a variety of topics, including climate change impacts in Florida; Maasai culture in Tanzania; ethnobotanical abortions in Michoacan, Mexico; and transit-oriented gentrification in Los Angeles’ Koreatown. Student posters presented research on agricultural landscapes in Orange County, climate patterns in Atlanta, Georgia; bibliometric analysis of published geographic scholarship; invasive plants in California national parks; hydrosocial changes in Orange County’s San Joaquin Marsh; and the geographic origins of talented baseball players.

“I get to learn a lot about different aspects of research people have done, and it inspires me to do my own research,” said Emily Arcos, a senior studying geography.

The event’s keynote presentation, titled “Landscape Legacies of California’s Spanish Place Names,” was delivered by Robert Voeks, professor of geography and the environment.

Voeks skillfully blended geography, history and linguistics, providing a range of examples to illustrate how geographical place names, also known as toponyms, can provide insights into a region’s cultural and environmental history.

All Points of the Compass also included a cartography competition, in which first place was awarded to CSUF undergraduate student Chris Tang for his map of Japanese dialects, and second place was presented to CSUF graduate student Heather Roberts for her map of environmental changes in the San Joaquin Marsh. Support for the cartography competition was provided by Robert Young, professor emeritus of geography.

A student panel highlighted geography student experiences, focusing on internships, career opportunities and study abroad, and an alumni panel highlighted careers in urban planning, demographic analysis and sustainable agriculture.

“There’s a whole world out there, literally, for geographers. There’s so many different things you can do. I feel like that’s the most important thing that people take away from today,” said Anna Shiebeck, a junior studying geography.

All Points of the Compass is an annual student-led symposium that is planned and hosted by officers and volunteers from the CSUF Geography Club, one of the most active geography student organizations in California. Financial support was provided by Associated Students Inc. through the Humanities and Social Sciences Inter-Club Council and Young.

Nathan Mermilliod ’24 Discusses His Life Beyond the Chess Board The biological science major helped rebuild Chapman’s chess club.

Nathan Mermilliod ’24, a biological science major with a minor in leadership studies and molecular biology, was instrumental in revitalizing Chapman’s Chess Club.

“The Chess Club hadn’t met in years after Leo Eifert, a student who started the Chess Club, passed away,” said Mermilliod. “I worked with Dr. Fred Caporaso , who was the previous advisor of the chess club, to continue rebuilding the group.”

After coordinating with numerous Chapman faculty members, Mermilliod and the Chess Club successfully resurrected the Leo Eifert Memorial Tournament. The Memorial Tournament , a long-time Chapman tradition, was held to honor Leo Eifert, but stopped due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The Chess Club partnered with the Leonardo Eifert Endowed Scholarship for Imaginative Applications of Mathematics to raise donations for students interested in mathematics,” said Mermilliod. “It was exciting to learn that we raised over $300 for the scholarship.”

Under Mermilliod’s leadership, the Chess Club became one of the most vibrant student organizations on campus, reaching more than 300 members.

“I thought it was likely that there were many Chapman students interested in chess club after seeing the turnout for our first tournament,” said Mermilliod. “I gathered a group of people interested in an executive board and we started holding weekly meetings and monthly tournaments in the Ideation Zone in Swenson Hall.”

Beyond his contributions to campus life, Mermilliod is deeply committed to advocacy, particularly in the realm of health care. As someone who lives with hemophilia B, a rare bleeding disorder, Mermilliod understands the challenges and obstacles faced by individuals with similar conditions.

“I want to be a hematologist oncologist,” said Mermilliod. “My life mission is to help the bleeding disorders community. I want to support advocacy efforts in more ways than just public speaking, but also help individuals and families on the front lines.”

Despite the demands of managing his health, Mermilliod has been actively involved in supporting communities both locally and nationally.

“I want to support the bleeding disorders community in every way possible to help improve the lives of everyone affected by these conditions,” added Mermilliod.

Mermilliod also volunteers at organizations such as Higher Grounds Youth and Family Services, where he has helped introduce STEM activities to low-income families, inspiring young minds and fostering a passion for science.

“This all goes to say that I love planning events and organizing teams,” said Mermilliod. “It’s part of the reason I minored in leadership.”

College of Biological Sciences

Cbs students receive prestigious goldwater scholarships.

Three UC Davis students were awarded the scholarships this year, two from CBS

• by Isabella Beristain
• May 14, 2024

Three UC Davis students, including two from the College of Biological Sciences, have won the highly prestigious and competitive Barry Goldwater Scholarship. 

Every year, the Barry Goldwater Scholarship and Excellence in Education Foundation honors fewer than 500 undergraduate second- and third-year students from across the country with scholarships recognizing their science, technology, engineering and mathematics research accomplishments and future potential.

The 2024 UC Davis Goldwater Scholars are: Avantika Gokulnatha, a third-year genetics and genomics major, Madeleine Rose, a second-year cognitive science major, and Shih-Na Liu, an evolution, ecology and biodiversity major. Each of them submitted research spanning multiple STEM fields and topics.

Gokulnatha, who is from San Jose, California, investigates the cellular mechanisms of the human aging process. Rose, who is from Foster City, California, conducts research at the intersection of neuroendocrinology, chronic pain and artificial intelligence. And Liu, from Taoyuan, Taiwan, explores the effects of diet on the body shape evolution of reef fishes.

All three winners intend to continue their research at a graduate level. In the meantime, they’ll work on their ongoing endeavors here at UC Davis, where they began their journeys pursuing research excellence.

Goldwater dynasty

UC Davis has had 35 recipients earn the Goldwater Scholarship throughout the program’s 30-year history. This is the seventh consecutive year that one or more UC Davis students received the coveted Goldwater Scholar title. Only one other UC had more awardees than UC Davis for the 2024-25 scholarship cycle.

Scott Palmer, UC Davis prestigious scholarship advisor, said this number speaks not just to the caliber of students that UC Davis admits but also to the multitude of research opportunities available for undergraduates to pursue.

“At Davis, there are so many ways to get involved with research and the labs conducting it,” Palmer said. “We have a reputation for being collaborative, which not a lot of incoming students are necessarily aware about.” 

From seminar to scholar

Gokulnatha first learned about the scholarship at one of Palmer’s honors program advising seminars during her first quarter at UC Davis.

“In the past, I benefitted significantly from applying to scholarships — not just financially, but also through the doors that these awards open,” Gokulnatha said. “I knew I would need to start exploring research opportunities and immediately the one thing I grasped was that everyone seemed accessible and really invested in us undergraduates learning everything we can both inside and outside the classroom. People really do see themselves in you as a budding researcher.”

Bold actions, rich returns

Rose began her Goldwater journey cold emailing professors, looking for opportunities that best fit her personal research goals.

“The worst response you can get is a no and a no is not the end of the world. You never know what will happen if you do not hit send,” Rose said. “Reaching out to prospective mentors across disciplines is a great way to expand your options and diversify research interests, it’s how I now work with top researchers and clinicians across academic institutions.” 

Opportunities to rethink the way things work

Liu noted there are also many ways to get your research funded.

“Last year, I participated in the EVE Scholars Program . Through the Department of Evolution and Ecology, I was able to make a lot of progress on my research that I then submitted for the Goldwater Scholarship,” she said. “It is a really cool program because they fund you for the whole summer, then you take a research presentation class the following quarter and they even provide you with funding to go to conferences to learn more. It’s the whole research package.”

Gaining invaluable experience

According to Palmer, applying to a prestigious scholarship application, alone, is a huge win for most undergraduate students. “You get the opportunity to write about yourself, clarify your vision and show others why they should invest in you. This is a great skill to practice going into graduate school or for jobs after college,” he said.

Rose put herself through this experience to do exactly that: gain valuable experience to aid her future research endeavors.

“You miss 100% of the shots you do not take. The odds of receiving an award like this are slim and I was aware of this when I first decided to apply,” she said. “The application process was challenging but encouraged me to think critically about the research projects I am leading. Applying for this scholarship strengthened my skills both as a researcher and writer.”
