Congratulations to Terra Sztain-Pedone on receiving the 2018-19 Bruno Zimm Award!

The Bruno Zimm Graduate Award is named for UC San Diego Professor of Chemistry Bruno Zimm, a pioneer in the study of the biophysical properties of nucleic acids and proteins. The award is given to a full-time Ph.D. graduate student whose research is in the area of physical chemistry, planetary chemistry, or cosmo-chemistry, and whose research is exceptionally meritorious and particularly deserving of recognition. The award is made possible through a gift from Larry S. Millstein, Ph.D. (Chemistry, ’87), and his wife Robin Taylor. Professor Zimm was an adviser to and chaired Dr. Millstein’s doctoral committee.
