Molly McGuire ('26), a biochemistry major, is awarded a Van Andel Student Summer Research Fellowship for Summer 2025
Molly McGuire '26, a biochemistry major, has been awarded a Van Andel Student Summer Research Fellowship for Summer 2025. Molly notes that "My research focuses on biochemistry and molecular biology, particularly on the role of cytoskeletal proteins. Through genetic tools and imaging techniques, I have investigated how these proteins contribute to cellular integrity and development. Through my experience in this research at GVSU, I was fortunate to be offered a position as an Undergraduate Research Fellow at Van Andel Institute for Summer 2025. This program allows for a continuation of my research career in cytoskeletal studies in a high-impact, biomedical setting."
Van Andel Student Summer Research Fellowships are designed to provide undergraduate college students opportunities to be mentored by professionals in their chosen research field, to become familiar with the use of state-of-the-art scientific equipment and technology, and to learn valuable interpersonal and presentation skills. The goal of this program is to expose aspiring researchers and clinicians to exciting advances in biomedical sciences that will help define their career paths.
