Discovery Corps Postdoctoral Fellowship: Greener Approaches to Chemistry Through Research and Education

斯蒂芬妮·古尔德正在将研究和K-12外展与探索兵团的博士后奖学金整合在一起。她的研究内容包括合成复杂分子，这些分子将用于开发一类新的分子机器。这些机器将集体对机械、电、磁或光刺激做出反应。这项研究还将有助于“绿色化学”，即减少对环境影响的化学。科学教育和推广部分将与美国国家科学基金会资助的GK-12计划合作，为高中教师和学生开发探究和主动学习模块。古尔德将与洛杉矶联合学区的课堂教师合作。该奖项由化学部和多学科活动办公室共同资助。探索军团奖学金计划是一个试点计划，旨在寻求新的博士后和专业发展模式，将研究专业知识与面向服务的项目相结合。探索团队计划同时支持博士后研究员和高级研究员。

Stephanie Gould is integrating research and K-12 outreach with this Discovery Corps Postdoctoral Fellowship. Her research component involves synthesizing complex molecules that will be used in the development of a new class of molecular machines. These machines will respond collectively to mechanical, electrical, magnetic or optical stimuli. The study will also contribute to "green chemistry", or chemistry with reduced environmental impact. The science education and outreach components, in partnership with a NSF-funded GK-12 Program, will develop inquiry- and active-learning modules for high-school teachers and students. Gould will work with classroom teachers in the Los Angeles Unified School District. This award is cofunded 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 a service-oriented project. The Discovery Corps Program supports both Postdoctoral Fellows and Senior Fellows.
