Family of Francis X. MacKenna

The Francis X. MacKenna Endowed Chemistry Student Research Fund was established by a donor deeply committed to the advancement of chemistry and higher education, to honor the memory of a family member. The goal of the program is to assist in the funding of a project that will eventually lead to publication in a refereed journal. Recipients are selected based on the merits of the project and the credentials of the student. Projects involving significant instrumental work or development are given priority.
