On Saturday May 20, 2017, Fjolla Muqolli and Chris Sahagian presented their work from the past school year at a research symposium for undergraduates conducting research in laboratories (UROP) at UCI. Their work, as mentioned in a previous post, received grant funds to be used for research materials in support of their projects.
