February 8, 2007
Following up on work carried out by Silas D. Childs Professor of Chemistry Robin Kinnel at the University of Hawaii during the spring of 2005, two students, Andrew Glossner '06 and Danielle Massee '07 completed the synthesis of a natural product isolated from the sponge Amphimedon compressa; this was reported at the meeting in a poster. In addition, Kinnel served as one of six judges for the poster prizes at this meeting in Queenstown, New Zealand, which took place from February 4 to February 10.
