Recently, two undergraduate students Molly Drosen and Amy Reyes were highlighted by UWM Letters & Science INFOCUS for their scientific contributions in the area of drug discovery and development.

Both undergraduate students were looking for research opportunities related to medicine and health and were thrilled about the fact that UWM has a renown Institute that supports academic researchers and startup companies to develop the next generation of medical treatments. Molly Drosen is currently focusing on identifying the genetic makers for chronic fatigue syndrome and Amy Reyes is targeting STAT3 for a future cancer treatment. Both students are working with MIDD member Avik Roy.
