Discovery Corps Postdoctoral Fellowship: Visualizing the Chemical Origins of Life for Research and Education

Janet Iwasa，哈佛大学，2006-2007学年和2007-2008学年探索队博士后研究员。该奖学金将通过提供科学准确、动态的分子可视化，在化学键中心（CBC）和波士顿科学博物馆之间架起桥梁。这些可视化的受众范围从研究人员到普通公众。Iwasa的主要目标是以一种清晰而吸引人的方式向公众展示化学进化。这个发现队博士后奖学金由化学部和多学科活动办公室支持。探索队奖学金计划是一个试点项目，旨在寻求新的博士后和专业发展模式，将研究专长与专业服务相结合。探索队成员通过解决国家需要领域的项目利用他们的研究专长。他们的项目提高了研究能力和基础设施，有助于劳动力发展和创造就业机会。探索队项目同时支持博士后和高级研究员。

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.
