Reppert has been involved in research projects with Ryszard Jankowiak, a 1xbet online sports betting professor of chemistry who is Polish. Reppert said he has enjoyed learning the country's language, culture and history. He has previously spent a month in Poland and wanted to return to study, visit friends and practice speaking Polish. After completing his Fulbright, Reppert plans to pursue a doctorate in physical chemistry at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His career goal is to work at a university where he would conduct research on fundamental physical and chemical principles as they apply to biological systems.

At 1xbet online sports betting , Reppert also has been involved in research projects with Virginia Naibo, assistant professor of mathematics. He is a recipient of a National Science Foundation Graduate Fellowship for graduate studies in physical chemistry. He also has been a Goldwater Scholar and a National Merit Scholar.
