About
Adam & Ben on the roof of the Hancock Building, where the Sea Grant/Wrigley Environmental Studies Program is headquartered.
Ben Pyenson ‘09, a Biology major and Geology minor, and Adam Subhas ‘09, a chemistry/biochemistry student are participating in separate REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates) programs at USC in L.A. for the summer.
Ben’s work focuses on a growing field termed broadly as “Geobiology”, which is concerned with the interface of Earth and Life sciences in very broad senses, while Adam is working on a “Snapshots in Chemistry” program.
They’ll be writing about their experiences working at a large research university hoping to enlighten others in the Haverford community to other fields of research and study in natural sciences outside of the focus that Haverford offers.
