At the Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minoritized Students, he gave an award-winning presentation of his research project. While at the conference, he was also able to network and find resources for graduate programs and professional development opportunities. “My research with Dr. Yoel Rodríguez of the Natural Sciences Department focuses on a computational drug-discovery technique that may identify small molecules with high potency that could block the infection of the virus that causes COVID-19,” he says.

Hostos Students Contribute to Published Research Study
Two students from Hostos — Scarlet Martínez Cardoze and Onyinyechi W. Obineche (above) — along with two students from Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) collaborated on a research study titled “Small Molecules Targeting SARS-CoV-2 Spike Glycoprotein Receptor-Binding Domain” led by Professor José Fernández Romero from BMCC and the Population Council housed in Rockefeller University. While conducting their research, the team discovered three compounds that alone or in combination showed antiviral selectivity against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that has caused the COVID-19 pandemic. These compounds have been named HCC1, HCC4, and HCC11. HCC stands for Hostos Community College. The research, published by American Chemical Society Omega, was funded by the CUNY Community College Research Grant with support from the CUNY Research Scholars Program.

Madruga Family Fund for Financial Need and Extenuating Circumstances, Feiner Family Fund Scholarship for Extenuating Circumstances, Josephine Aguado Scholarship
Facing eviction from her apartment, single parent Elizabeth Soto and her 14-year-old relied on the Hostos Food Pantry for two months because they couldn’t afford to pay for food. The scholarships Elizabeth received enabled her to stay enrolled and helped to pay for housing, food, transportation, and personal supplies. “I was able to stay because of that help,” she says.

Dental hygiene students have full-time classes plus clinical hours. It leaves very little time to work. Before I received scholarships, I was considering taking a break from school to work for a while. Thanks to the scholarships I received, I was able to stay on track to graduate.”
