The International Graduate Mentoring Program is an important group for the graduate community. An international move can be exhilarating, and not without some level of stress. Throwing a full course of graduate studies into the mix can lead to additional obstacles, which is why the International Graduate Mentoring Program is such an important resource for international students.

The Dartmouth Graduate Alumni Research Award has been instrumental in my graduate research this year. In the Guerinot lab, we study how essential nutrients are “eaten” by and stored in plants. For many of the nutrients that we study the only way to visualize their localization in the plant is to use a giant X-ray to conduct Synchrotron X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (SXRF) microanalysis, which allows non-destructive multi-elemental imaging of plant tissues. The support of this award allowed me access to collaborating synchrotron beam lines.
