High school student Claire Mukigi completes GROW internship in EALab
Claire Mukigi, a rising senior at Natick High School, joined the Environmental Archaeology Laboratory as part of the BU Greater Boston Area Research Opportunities For Young Women (GROW) program, an internship that places high school students from the Boston area in BU labs for the summer, sponsored by the CAS Office of STEM Outreach & Diversity. Over the 6-week fellowship, Claire worked with PhD student Nicole Hultquist on NSF-funded research into stable isotopes at the site of Gordion, Turkey. Claire presented her research with a poster and an elevator pitch at the culminating GROW workshop, now displayed on the GROW webpage here. Thank you, Claire, for your contribution to our research, and best of luck with your college applications!
