  • Imani Adenuga

    Chemistry student engaged in sustainable catalyst research through Kennesaw State's First-Year Scholars program

    April 08, 2025

    Imani Adenuga can’t recall the exact moment science grabbed her by the heart, but she has always been inquisitive in nature, seeking knowledge no matter the subject area. “I always want to know the why,” said Adenuga, who studies chemistry in the College of Science and Mathematics. “I think that just goes with science—figuring out the why of things or what makes things happen.” The First-Year Scholar dove into research immediately upon arrival at KSU last fall, landing in the lab of chemistry professor Daniela Tapu where she took on a project involving sustainable catalysts. It constituted a huge leap for a freshman, given that the project is grounded in organic chemistry, a critical class for chemistry majors that she hasn’t taken yet.
