Taylor Kurrle works in the glass shop in Williams Hall.

 Behind every breakthrough experiment in the chemistry research laboratories at , there’s a vital but often unseen craft – scientific glassblowing. Scientific glassblowing plays a pivotal role in research, ensuring that specialized glassware used in laboratories is precisely tailored to meet the unique needs of each project. This custom-made glassware is not just a tool—it is an essential component for achieving the thermal and chemical resistance required in scientific experiments. Beyond fabrication, scientific glassblowing allows for the repair and modification of ...
