BME graduating senior, Nadine Grant, has been selected for the Class of 1902 Research Prize. Established in 1927, the Class of 1902 Research Prize is awarded to a graduating senior in the RPI School of Science or Engineering who has completed at least two semesters of undergraduate research and who presents the best research results, culminating in a written report, submitted paper, or thesis.
Nadine participated in the Undergraduate Research Program at RPI under Dr. Pingkun Yan. Her research has focused on utilizing artificial intelligence to predict the blood-brain barrier permeability of drugs. The goal of this work is to advance drug development and improve the efficiency of the drug discovery process by being able to predict the properties of drugs prior to further in-vitro/in-vivo experimentation.
Nadine was also recently awarded the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship. Congratulations on all of your achievements, Nadine!
