• Inorganic Chemistry Student Exit Talk: Yuto Katsuyama (The Kaner Lab)

    Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

    Flyer: Yuto Katsuyama Flyer Title: Next-Generation Battery Electrode Materials Using Earth-Abundant Elements Abstract: Energy storage devices, especially batteries, are indispensable in modern society, providing power for electronic devices including smartphones and EVs, and storing renewable energies in the electric grid, etc. However, batteries still have a lot of problems, such as their limited energy density, […]

  • Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series – Prof. Courtney Roberts

    Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

    Flyer: Prof. Courtney Roberts Flyer Title: Access to Inaccessible Arynes and Redox Chemistry Using Transition Metals Abstract: Research in the Roberts group involves looking at unsolved problems in organic synthesis through the perspective of organometallic/inorganic chemistry. One main area of interest for the group is the synthesis of heterocycles through aryne intermediates. Despite their useful […]

  • Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series – Prof. Amanda Cook

    Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

    Flyer: Prof. Amanda Cook Flyer Title: Alkene Functionalization Using Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Catalysts Abstract: Surface Organometallic Chemistry is an approach to synthesizing heterogeneous catalysts with molecular precision and relies on knowledge of homogeneous organometallic reactions. In our lab, we aim to install active sites on surfaces using oxidative addition of low-valent metal centers to surface […]

  • Special Biochemistry Seminar: Prof. Steffen Lindert

    Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

    Flyer: Prof. Steffen Lindert Flyer Title: Using Computers to Derive Protein Structure from Sparse Data – A Case Study for Mass Spectrometry Abstract: Mass spectrometry-based methods such as covalent labeling, surface induced dissociation (SID) or ion mobility (IM) are increasingly used to obtain information about protein structure. However, in contrast to other high-resolution structure determination […]

  • Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series – Prof. Guosong Hong

    Flyer: Prof. Guosong Hong Flyer Title: Seeing the Sound: An Ultrasound-Mediated Intravascular Light Source Enabled by Mechanoluminescent Materials Abstract: Light is used in a wide range of methods in chemistry, biology, and medicine, fluorescence imaging, optogenetics, photoactivatable gene editing, light-controlled immunotherapy, and photochemotherapy for treating cancers and viral infections. A critical challenge for all light-based […]

  • Houk-Jung Organic Colloquium 247: Julian West

    Collaboratory Yoo Seminar & Conference Hall YH4222 

    West Flyer A Radical Approach to Organic Chemistry Abstract: Synthetic chemists need ever better tools to synthesize the molecules of modern life, from life-changing pharmaceuticals to next generation materials. Further, there is increasing need for these transformations to be both step and atom efficient and sustainable, proceeding under mild conditions using earth abundant elements. Here […]
