Cal State Fullerton Chemistry & Biochemistry faculty and students are conducting voluntary testing of soil and water samples from Ladera Ranch to help assess potential environmental contaminants. The initial phase of the project is led by Professors Daniel Curtis, Paula Hudson, and Stevan Pecic, with support from approximately a dozen undergraduate researchers, and includes analysis of heavy metals, pesticides, and how soil bacteria may transform compounds into potentially harmful chemicals.

🧪 CSUF Chemistry & Biochemistry in the News! 🧪

Our students and faculty are making an impact beyond the classroom! Students working alongside Dr. Curtis, Dr. Hudson, and Dr. Pecic were recently featured on NBC4 Los Angeles while conducting water and soil sampling in Ladera Ranch.

Their research is helping investigate environmental concerns and potential childhood cancer risks in the community—highlighting the important role of chemistry and biochemistry in addressing real-world challenges. 🔬🌎

We’re proud of our students for putting their research into action and representing CSUF Chemistry & Biochemistry in the community!
