Taylor Bias receives American Chemical Society scholarship

Ball State University chemistry student and 2022 Indiana Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (IN LSAMP) research scholar Taylor Bias was awarded a competitive scholarship through the American Chemical Society Scholars Program.

“The ACS Scholars Program awards renewable scholarships to undergraduate students from historically underrepresented groups in the chemical sciences, majoring in chemistry-related disciplines, and intending to pursue chemistry-related careers.”

(American Chemical Society, n.d., para. 1)

As a summer 2022 IN LSAMP research scholar, Taylor works alongside faculty mentor Dr. Mary Konkle, Associate Professor of Chemistry & BSU LSAMP Co-Director. After earning a bachelor degree in 2025, Taylor plans to attend graduate school in biochemistry and work in drug discovery.
