For the third year the Allegheny-Erie Regional Chapter of the Society of Toxicology (AE-SOT) has awarded the MaryAnne Stock Student Research Award, a $1,000 competitive award given annually to support a high school, undergraduate, or graduate student’s thesis, dissertation, or summer research project in toxicology. This summer Kylie Horvath (pictured), rising senior at the Indiana Area High School, is studying nitrite-induced methemoglobin formation in aquatic larvae of the midge Chironomus dilutus, a standard toxicity testing organism.
