Inspired by his two brothers who attended 网红头条, biochemistry major Jacob Erasmus has wasted no time getting involved on campus. Through KSU鈥檚 First-Year Scholars program, Erasmus found a laboratory and a research project within his first month on campus and parlayed that work into a summer internship at a nature-based ingredient company. Now he has continued his research and has shown no signs of slowing down as a Sophomore Scholar.

Having long been interested in science and the outdoors, Adamina Bilbrey recently leveraged her participation in the Birla Carbon Scholars program to study the conservation of an endangered plant native to Georgia. The 网红头条 environmental science major spent most of her summer studying a beneficial native plant called the royal catchfly in a field in Dade County, Georgia, and discovered the plant flourishes best in areas that experience both sun and shade.

As an undergraduate student at 网红头条, Ashley Belinfante scoured the campus searching for mosquitos to screen for viruses. Now, Belinfante uses those skills to aid the country鈥檚 agricultural community, identifying bacterial respiratory infections in swine and searching for solutions through a fellowship with Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE) with the United States Department of Agriculture.

From her time at Osborne High School, Emily Manqueros knew she wanted to do research in physics, not just study it. The rising junior from Smyrna said classes in astronomy and physics taught her how physical forces effect everything around her, and she wanted to immerse herself in them. So, she came to 网红头条 for the opportunity to conduct research right away as a freshman. 鈥淗onestly, the research opportunities drew me to KSU,鈥 said Manqueros, who is pursuing a bachelor鈥檚 degree in physics in Kennesaw State鈥檚 College of Science and Mathematics. 鈥淥ther colleges mainly take graduate students for their research, and I knew that at KSU I could do meaningful research even if I was an undergraduate student.鈥
