As a Fall 2012 WCC/Eli Lilly Travel Award winner, I was able to attend my first ACS national meeting in Philadelphia to present my graduate research and participate in invaluable networking opportunities. I will discuss highlights of my meeting experience including the WCC/Eli Lilly Poster Session, WCC Luncheon, and WCC symposium. Receiving the award has also allowed me to get more involved in other ACS events such as a graduate education panel and the ACS Leadership Development Institute.
