Janet Iwasa, Harvard University, is a Discovery Corps Postdoctoral Fellow for the 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 academic years. This fellowship will bridge between a Chemical Bonding Center (CBC) and the Boston Museum of Science by providing scientifically accurate, dynamic molecular visualizations. The audience for these visualizations spans from researchers to the general public. Iwasa's key goal will be to present chemical evolution in a clear and engaging way to the public.This Discovery Corps Postdoctoral Fellowship is supported by the Division of Chemistry and the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities. The Discovery Corps Fellowship Program is a pilot program seeking new postdoctoral and professional development models that combine research expertise with professional service. Discovery Corps Fellows leverage their research expertise through projects that address areas of national need. Their projects enhance research capacity and infrastructure and contribute to workforce development and job creation. The Discovery Corps Program supports both Postdoctoral Fellows and Senior Fellows.

哈佛大学的珍妮特·伊瓦萨（Janet Iwasa）是2006-2007和2007-2008学年的发现军博士后研究员。 该奖学金将通过提供科学精确的动态分子可视化，在化学键合中心（CBC）和波士顿科学博物馆之间桥接。 这些可视化的受众从研究人员到公众。 伊瓦萨（Iwasa）的主要目标是以清晰而引人入胜的方式向公众提出化学进化。这个发现军团博士后奖学金得到了化学部和多学科活动办公室的支持。 Discovery Corps奖学金计划是一项试点计划，寻求新的博士后和专业发展模型，将研究专业知识与专业服务相结合。发现军团的研究员通过解决国家需求领域的项目来利用他们的研究专业知识。他们的项目增强了研究能力和基础设施，并有助于劳动力发展和创造就业机会。 Discovery Corps计划支持博士后研究员和高级研究员。
