Fast forward one year later, and Zumwalt has successfully checked \u201cpublished research\u201d off her list.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Zumwalt started her research journey through faculty-student independent research credit courses (291\/491) and was later awarded the Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) with the Center for Undergraduate Excellence in 2019. With the guidance and support of Dr. O Maduka Ogba, Zumwalt was encouraged to continue her research through SURF which led to <\/span><em>Mechanism and Chemoselectivity for HOCl\u2010Mediated Oxidation of Zinc\u2010Bound Thiolates<\/em>, her <a href=\"https:\/\/chemistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1002\/cphc.202000634\">publication<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThis work perfectly blends my passion for medicine, my organic chemistry background, and my interest in applying technology to the medical field,\u201d Zumwalt said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Her research focuses on the bacteria <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Helicobacter pylori<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> which resides in the stomach of about 50% of the world\u2019s population and can cause stomach ulcers and cancer. The body\u2019s typical response to foreign bacteria that kills most pathogens is inflammation, but this particular bacteria is attracted to inflammation, specifically Hypochlorous acid (HOCI). Zumwalt used computation methods to study the oxidative reaction between <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">H. pylori<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and HOCI. This information can be used to prevent further infection and disease of the pathogen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1076 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/undergraduate-excellence\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2019\/11\/SURF-zumwalt3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"341\" height=\"228\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The path to publication or any research comes with expected challenges, as it did in Zumwalt\u2019s case. \u201cWhen on the pursuit of discovering new knowledge, you may go down a path that doesn\u2019t lead anywhere,\u201d she revealed. \u201cThis certainly did happen with this project. When this happens, it\u2019s essential to take a step back, reflect on your work, learn from your mistakes, ground yourself in other known scientific knowledge, and brainstorm the next steps with your research team.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Since Zumwalt conducted the majority of the data and results, she is listed as the first author of the paper, which is a great achievement. Dr. Ogba, her mentor for the research project, is the corresponding author which is reserved for the principal investigator.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1077 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/undergraduate-excellence\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2019\/11\/SURF-zumwalt4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"305\" height=\"203\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cLindsay is incredibly hardworking and a budding scholar in her own rights. I am proud of how she took ownership of the research project and saw it through to fruition,\u201d he commented.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Zumwalt encourages students that want to be published to \u201cfind a project that you are deeply passionate about and a mentor who is willing to devote their time and efforts to guide you to success,\u201d as she did with Dr. Ogba. \u201cI am really grateful that he trusted me with this project, and I think we are both very proud of the outcome.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What\u2019s next up on her list? Zumwalt is currently applying to medical school, where she plans to become a pediatric neurologist <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">and integrate technology and other innovations into the medical field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Center for Undergraduate Excellence congratulates Zumwalt on her publication, and we wish her the best of luck on her journey to medical school.
