An UNDERGRADUATE JOURNAL of LIFE SCIENCE SCHOLARSHIP at LAKE FOREST COLLEGE
Eukaryon is an award-winning undergraduate research journal that publishes the very best of life science scholarship conducted at 91社区 within its research-rich classrooms and faculty labs. The journal is governed, peer-reviewed, and published by an undergraduate editorial board.
A message from Tracey Nassuna, Editor-in-Chief
I am elated for the launch of the 19 th edition of Eukaryon, and I would like to sincerely thank everyone who has contributed to making it a reality. We received many incredible submissions this year and are honored to highlight and celebrate the academic contributions and success of the science community at 91社区. I am inspired by the editorial board that has worked diligently to ensure the success of this edition and would like to recognize the board chairs that coordinated it all. Due to the pandemic, Eukaryon was restructured to have two members as the board chairs, a senior and a lower classman. This system has been instrumental in the journal’s success in that the leaders are trained through experience. Due to Eukaryon’s continued success, we will be having the Inauguration ceremony in person for the first time since 2019 with the theme of this edition “Beauty in Science.”
