How has being a Chemistry graduate from Duke helped shape your professional success?

"Strong background in basic science contributed to success as a research tech before going back for med school, where familiarity with biochemistry was helpful for most first year med school courses."

What advice would you give students in Chemistry?

"For class, make use of office hours and recitation to stay on top of material. Reach out to faculty for research opportunities."
