Jennie P. Kim, a Nutritional Sciences major working on her Undergraduate Research Scholars Thesis in the Chapkin Lab (https://chapkinlab.tamu.edu) was recently awarded second place for her poster presentation in the Agricultural and Life Sciences category at the Texas A&M Student Research Week competition (https://srw.tamu.edu). Student Research Week is the largest student-run research symposium in the nation, spotlighting student research conducted at Texas A&M University. Currently, her research focuses on the effects of short-chain fatty acids (e.g., butyrate) on colonic organoid stem cell homeostasis and gene expression in high vs. normal glucose conditions. She plans to continue her involvement in undergraduate research in the Chapkin Lab and hopes to provide important contributions related to the expanding field of Precision Nutrition.
