Vinita Marathe, a graduate student from India, won for researching alternative cancer treatments. Her presentation described protein-based therapy as "a more targeted approach than chemotherapy," Vinita said. She plans to graduate this summer with a master’s degree in chemistry with a concentration in biochemistry.
"I traveled from complete skeptic to proselytizer," Volz said. Scott Lehman, a graduate student in English, won for exceptional research on 18th century maps of Havana, Cuba, which appeared in Gentleman’s Magazine, a British periodical from colonial times. Lehman analyzed how the maps gave rise to the idea that Cuba and the West Indies were a public commodity for British colonization. "They exemplify the birth of cartography as a tool in modern warfare and the use of warfare as a tool in the global marketplace," Lehman said. -- Student Writer Lisa Rau with Matt Itelson
