Misael Romero-Reyes

Graduate Student

About Me: I am an international student from Mexico. I grew up in a city called Toluca which is really close to Mexico City. I went to college at Universidad Autonoma del Estado de Mexico and received my bachelors degree in chemistry in May 2016. My interest lie at the interface between organic chemistry and biological chemistry, but I am always keen to learn something new. Outside of chemistry I like swimming, running and since I moved here I've got into hiking and climbing which is amazing in this beautiful state. 

Research: I am currently working on developing aptamer-functionalizated membranes capable of removing microcystin-LR and saxitoxin from drinking water.
