2016 Sep 21

Marietta College's Rachel Stahl of Oley, PA, recently completed an Investigative Studies Fellowship during the 2016 summer.

On Wednesday, Sept. 28, Stahl and three other Investigative Studies Fellows will present their research during a special seminar. Stahl is presenting on "The Effect of Glucose on Wnt and Beta-catenin Signaling."

The Investigative Studies Summer Fellowship Program provides opportunities for undergraduate students at Marietta College to work one-on-one with a faculty mentor in order to pursue research or creative activity of interest beyond that explored in a classroom setting.

Students prepare a proposal for a competitive application process during the Spring semester and pursue research activity during a six-week period of the summer semester. Fellows receive six weeks of campus housing and a stipend of $2,250.

Stahl, who is majoring in Biochemistry, is scheduled to graduate in May of 2017. Stahl is also a graduate of Oley Valley High School.
