Flyer: Austin Ready Flyer Title: Boron Clusters as Robust Building Blocks for the Expansion of Carbon-Based Chemistry Abstract: Due to a delocalization of electron density, polyhedral boron clusters are often described as three-dimensional analogues of planar aromatic molecules such as benzene. Despite this electronic similarity, boron clusters can have drastically different chemical and physical properties […]

Flyer: Prof. Shabnam Hematian Flyer Title:Unconventional Approaches for Mediating Redox Reactions Abstract: Reactions involving electron transfers are known as oxidation-reduction, or redox, processes, common and vital to our daily lives. Redox reactions lie at the heart of chemical, biological, environmental, and energy sciences and technologies. Here, we show how employing unconventional approaches and blueprints to […]
Flyer: Hawthorne Symposium 2023 flyer Schedule Brochure:Hawthorne Symposium Brochure Professor M. Frederick Hawthorne (August 24, 1928 – July 8, 2021) was a true chemistry pioneer, discovering boron cluster structures that have paved the way in inorganic, organometallic, material, nanotechnology, and medicinal sciences. His award-winning work in boron chemistry and time as a distinguished Professor of […]
Prof. Colin Nuckolls Flyer Talk Title: Putting Molecules into Materials Abstract: This presentation will detail our efforts to create materials from contorted aromatic molecules. In particular, I will discuss how to create ladder polymers from helicenes and twistacenes building blocks. These materials have extraordinary properties as materials. The helicenes have the largest chiroptic response of […]
Flyer: Aamir Shah Flyer Title: Fundamental Understanding of Electrode-Electrolyte Interface in Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) Kinetics Abstract: Abstract: The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is one of the most fundamental and critical reactions in renewable energy conversion. The recent advancement in various platinum (Pt) nanocatalyst designs has led to greatly improved HER activity. Identification of the […]
