Shannon Bober earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry with a minor in Sociology from Texas A&M University in May 2025. As an undergraduate, she worked in Dr. Dmitry Kurouski’s lab, where she applied near-infrared excitation Raman spectroscopy to the analysis of fabric dyes and colorants. Her work led to two publications in Analytical Methods and Molecules. In the fall of 2025, she joined the Prentice Group.
