We were thrilled to host Dr. Donald Gauthier from Merck, who was presented with the Dean’s Excellence in Industrial Leadership Award from the UCI Department of Chemistry!

The day was packed with inspiring engagement, featuring a morning conversation on industry leadership, a seminar on landmark scientific achievements, and an engaging career Q&A with 30 of our nominated students.

A huge thank you to Vy Dong and Dean Seth M. Cohen for hosting, and to our faculty and students for making this pilot visit such a success!
