Flyer: Dr. David Kwabi Flyer Title: Designing Organic Redox-Flow Batteries for Energy Storage and CO2 Capture Abstract: Avoiding the most severe consequences of climate change can be achieved by increasing the pace at which carbon-free/renewable power is adopted to replace fossil fuels, capturing and permanently sequestering CO2 away from the atmosphere, or both. Large-scale implementation […]
Flyer: Prof. Jonathan Rittle Flyer Title: Discovery of Manganese-Dependent Monooxygenases Abstract: The aerobic oxidation of carbon–hydrogen (C–H) bonds in biology is currently known to be accomplished by a limited set of cofactors that largely include heme, nonheme iron, and copper. While manganese cofactors perform difficult oxidation reactions, including water oxidation within Photosystem II, they are […]

Flyer: Shiyun Lin, George Wong, and Hootan Roshandel Flyer Shiyun Lin Title: Multistate Catalysis: Ferrocene Aluminum Compound for Versatile Polymerization and Sustainable Polycarbonates Abstract: Nature has developed an intricate mechanism through polymerase enzymes to control polymerization with monomer-level precision. However, this system is restricted to a limited range of monomers. In contrast, synthetic chemistry offers […]
Shuaijing Du of the Duan Research Group Flyer: Shuaijing Du Student Exit Talk Flyer Title: Introducing Chirality into Hybrid Superlattices Abstract: I will present recent results on two different projects, with the common theme of introducing chirality into hybrid superlattices. 1: Modular assembly of a library of hybrid superlattices. Hybrid superlattices, composed of two-dimensional atomic […]
