Congratulations to Professor Julie Pollock!  Julie, a Duke Chemistry graduate, has received a Henry Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award! The award honors young faculty in the chemical sciences who have created an outstanding independent body of scholarship and are deeply committed to education with undergraduates. 

Julie completed her PhD with Prof. Dewey McCafferty in 2011 and departed for an NIH Postdoctoral Fellowship with Prof. John Katzenellenbogen at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. She began her independent career at the University of Richmond in 2014 and has a keen interest in using chemical biology approaches to understand disease development and progression. 

Julie, and the other seven Henry Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar awardees, will receive an unrestricted research grant of $75,000.

Congratulations, Julie!
