Tautomerism, 1950 - 1967

 File — Box 1, Folder: 19
Scope and Contents From the Series: Prof. Bojan Jennings was interested in a variety of scientific projects. She explored steroids, molecular structure, ultrasonoration, carbohydrates, pyrimidines and tautomerism, among many other things. These boxes contain her personal research (data collected, graphs created, reports composed, etc.) and the scientific articles that both informed and supported her own work. Dr. Jennings also delivered lectures at other universities; a transcript for one such lecture is included in...

Timeline - "old" - Carr, 1982 - 1983

 File — Box 6, Folder: 12
Scope and Contents From the Series: Dr. Jennings was passionate about giving due diligence to the women scientists who made significant contributions to their field. She was disappointed in how little literature there was about women scientists, a fact that became obvious to her over the years as she received reports on the same few women from her students every year after assigning them a research paper on significant women scientists. Determined to provide her students with a better understanding of their field and the...
