Catalyst, American University's science magazine, is designed to inform you about scientific research and results that affect us all. Catalyst is written by students, features many student projects, and aims to spark the scientific imagination of the AU community.
We feature science stars, professor profiles, and stories about students studying science outside the D.C. area. The events calendar and listserve inform readers about upcoming science-related events on campus. The Piping Hot section advertises science-related scholarships, internships, and jobs.
