Sajan Patel – 2014 Pedrozzi Scholar

Our scholars are always staying busy and diving deeper into their interests. Take a look at one of our 2014 Scholars, Sajan Patel, who is currently attending UC Berkeley.

This summer, I am interning in Process Chemistry at Merck in New Jersey. After lead pharmaceutical targets have been identified by the Discovery Chemistry group, Process Chemistry finds ways to make syntheses more efficient and to scale processes. I’m very excited to have this experience in an industry I hope to join after graduate school. I’d like to thank the Pedrozzi Foundation for supporting my undergraduate studies which allowed me to have this opportunity.
