These two Bluejays secured one of the nation’s top academic research honors. 🐦🐦🏆🔬Congratulations to Kaylen Lathrum (left) and Hannah Pflum (right) who were recently named 2025 Goldwater Scholars! Kaylen’s research involves organic chemistry synthesis, and she discovered new compounds that unexpectedly showed antibacterial properties. Hannah's neuroscience research focuses on how the RNA molecule, Nostrill, affects brain immune cells (microglia) in diseases like multiple sclerosis. 🧪🧠 Up next: PhDs and following in their mentors’ footsteps as researchers and professors. 💡💡 Help us give Kaylen and Hannah a huge round of applause! 👏👏👏👏👏 Learn more at the link in our bio. #GoldwaterScholars #CreightonUniversity #ResearchAtCreighton
