Chem or Physics Students! Research Awaits!
Dr. Eric Borguet is looking for a few researchers. No experience necessary, just motivation and intellectual curiosity. There is something to the right which should explain what kind of work Dr. Borguet is doing, but it is beyond me, so I leave it to you scientists to help figure it out. It does have lots of colors!
