The Atomic Spectroscopy Section of the Society for Applied Spectroscopy (SAS) is seeking nominations for the 2022 SAS Atomic Spectroscopy Student Awards. These awards will be given to undergraduate and graduate students who have excelled in the area of atomic spectroscopy.
Selected students will be required to present their work as an oral presentation at SciX 2022, which will be held in Greater Cincinnati, Kentucky, USA, October 2–7.
The 2022 SAS Atomic Spectroscopy Student Awards will come with travel assistance greater than $500 and a two-year SAS membership after graduation.
To apply or recommend a student, please submit the following materials:
These application documents should be emailed to Derrick Quarles and Ben Manard at atomic.section@s-a-s.org no later than March 1, 2022. Award winners will be notified in April 2022.
Students that submit an application for the award must be current SAS members or register at the time of submission. (Online student membership is $30 USD). Student memberships can be completed online by clicking here, or by phone (+1-301-694-8122).
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at: atomic.section@s-a-s.org.

FT-IR Analysis of pH and Xylitol Driven Conformational Changes of Ovalbumin–Amide VI Band Study
November 21st 2024This study uses Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to analyze how the globular protein ovalbumin's secondary structures transition under varying pH conditions in the presence of the cosolvent xylitol, highlighting the role of noncovalent interactions in these conformational changes.
