We just returned from a trip to the National Organic Symposium (NOS) at Duke University which is a week-long organic chemistry conference. Jason presented a poster with some of his research and attended various talks and other poster sessions. The NOS takes place every other year and organic chemists from around the world come. So, it's a great time for networking and bouncing ideas off eachother. Jason got good input on some of his research and was encouraged to publish a paper on an aspect that he hadn't even thought important. Laurel and Violet were able to come along as the conference gives some free time in the afternoons to visit the local area. We saw the University Gardens, the Duke Lemur Center, and went out for some North Carolina BBQ.
