Last week six graduate students and two undergraduate students from the Pratt Lab participated in the Michigan Geophysical Union symposium at the University of Michigan. Pratt Lab students competed against other chemistry students for the best poster presentation. After hours of grueling judging by experts in the field the scores were tallied. Matt Gunsch came out ahead of the rest and won first place in the Chemistry division for his work on "Single Particle Analysis of Transported Prudhoe Bay Emissions in Barrow, Alaska". Mark Hartwig won over the hearts and minds of the crowd and received the People's Choice Award for his scientific research on "Arctic Snow Comparison in Variable Sea Ice Environments". Everyone who presented had a great time sharing their research with the broader scientific community.
