CHAIR NOTES FROM JIYUE CHEN
Dear members,
May is Asian / Pacific American Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the profound impact Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders (AANHPIs) have made on our shared history.
In San Diego, Asian Americans have driven incredible advancements in STEM. This includes pioneering scientists like Dr. Shu Chien, Dr. Chi-Huey Wong, and UC San Diego's Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Roger Y. Tsien, who revolutionized imaging chemistry with fluorescent proteins. Today, a new generation of Asian American chemists continues to lead the way in education and research. From medicinal chemistry breakthroughs to nanomaterial innovations, they are shaping the future of science and expanding representation in STEM fields.
