Curious about #SummerEXCELerator and the Chancellor's Science Scholars program at @UNC? Check out our newest cohort of scholars to see where it all begins: youtube.com/watch?v=X1Pn98u-….
The first cohort of CSS scholars has come so far! 🤩 Check out this profile of Anna Atencio (UNC '17, CSS 1) and the interesting work she is doing as geophysics team lead for coastal surveying company Geodynamics! #excellenceispossible #CSSalumni
🐏 🌊 Meet Tar Heel Anna Atencio, Chancellor’s Science Scholars alumna & geophysics team lead at Geodynamics, a coastal surveying company near Morehead City, N.C.
Learn how Atencio uses data to tell the unseen stories of the ocean magazine.college.unc.edu/new… @CSS_Science @UNC_EMES

Really excited to see this work from my time at UNC (back when I was an inorganic chemist haha) with @DocAJMM out in @Orgmet_ACS! I hope you enjoy our work on cation-controlled isomerization with Pd pincer complexes. pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021… 1/2
I learned so much from my amazing mentors Ali and @DocAJMM during my time at UNC, and I’m really grateful for Sebastian’s efforts to get this work finished after Ali and I graduated. And this is my 1st co-first author paper so really exciting! 2/2

Meet Madison Milotte, a #UNC junior, who spent this summer in Chatham County researching how climate change might disrupt butterfly life cycles. Learn more about the @CSS_Science scholar's research, conducted through @unc_our as a SURF recipient unc.live/3TgQ6ZL
Julian Robles's (UNC '23, CSS 7) research with @livingFREElab studies the effects of eating disorders, obesity, and other eating-based behaviors in minority communities and seeks to improve eating behaviors to increase overall health. 🍎 #UNCResearchWeek #excellenceispossible

🔎 This week, we're highlighting researchers across the College as part of #UNCResearchWeek.
Meet Madison Milotte, a junior biology and environmental sciences double major who spent their summer studying cabbage white butterfly development in relation to temperature change. (1/5)
ALT Madison Milotte stands in a field on the farm where they collected cabbage white butterflies and holds a butterfly net.
Nathan Kelete (UNC '25, CSS 9) spent this summer in the @UNCpublichealth QUEST program, where he used his analytical skills to explore the disproportionate effect of environmental exposures on low-income areas and populations of color. 💻 #UNCResearchWeek #excellenceispossible
I had a fantastic time at this year’s Genetics retreat! It was wonderful to hang out with so many friends (some pictured below) and as an added bonus, I won an award for my talk!
The darts crew closes out the KGB pub (again!) at another successful genetics retreat. Just don’t ask @gene_marie_3 or @acrain12 who won the overall 🏆 !!
We are proud that @CSS_Science scholars are making valuable contributions to the state of NC (and beyond!) through hands-on STEM research here at @UNC. 🔬🧬⚗️🔭🪐🌱🦠🧠 #excellenceispossible

This summer, Darius Johnson (CSS 4, UNC '20) participated in the @UNC_SOM Kenan Primary Care Medical Scholars program, which aims to inspire more primary care MDs to practice in rural and urban areas of NC. Read about his experiences in the program's urban track. ⤵️ #CSSalumni
Meet two dynamic UNC medical students, Darius Johnson and Kristel Black, whose six-week summer internships as Kenan Urban Primary Care Medical Scholars took them on a deep dive into primary care needs in downtown Raleigh.

Mycobacterium bovis is a pretty interesting pathogen, showing multiple times the potential to circulate successfully in disparate host species worldwide. @lcmsalvador and I wanted to ask what genomic factors underlie this phenomena.

Varun Potlapalli ‘23 spent the summer getting his feet wet in MD-PhD studies as part of a collaboration between @UNC_SOM and @CSS_Science. He shadowed doctors, attended rounds, met with current MD-PhD students and prepared a research presentation. unc.live/3Q2RWvt
Love seeing #CSSalumni out doing great things, like Maggie Wagner (CSS 6, UNC '22) who is now pursuing her PhD in #bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania! 🤩 #excellenceispossible
So proud of these folks. Doing great things @NACoBiomechs. @_yujin_kwon @magwag00 @Andy_Shelt @PeruvianOx @MandyMunsch @emkeich. Representing @jointbme @CLEAR_NCSU_UNC!

Jarvis's main project involves learning how various sociodemographic factors influence the association between exposure to heavy metals and risks of developing cancer. Currently, he is analyzing the associations between arsenic exposure and incidence of bladder cancer.
