Susan Kozawa, a PhD student in the Department of Macromolecular Science and Engineering, was selected to present her research,"Unusual Hyperpolarization Observations in Polyacrylate Gels with Monovalent Salts" at the 16th Annual Excellence in Polymer Graduate Research Symposium, which was scheduled to take place at the 2020 Spring American Chemical Society Meeting. Although the ACS meeting was cancelled due the pandemic, the selected graduate students were able to present their work in a virtual format. Kozawa’s PhD advisor is Gary Wnek, Chair of the Department of Macromolecular Science and Engineering.
