  • Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series: Emily Tsui

    Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA, United States

    Flyer: Prof. Emily Tsui Flyer Meet the Speaker: 11 a.m., YH 3096 Title: Organometallic Chemistry at Quantum Dot Surfaces Abstract: Due to their tunable optoelectronic properties, colloidal semiconductor quantum dot nanocrystals are useful in applications like displays, photovoltaics, and photocatalysis. Chemistry at nanocrystal surfaces, including redox processes, association/dissociation, and other structural rearrangements, has an outsize […]

  • CANCELED: Houk-Jung Organic Colloquium 247: Elizabeth Gilles

    Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA, United States

    PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED     Prof. Gilles Flyer Title: Self-Immolative Polymers: Chemical Designs and Applications Abstract: The development of degradable polymers is of significant interest across a wide range of fields from commodity plastics to medicine. Much progress has been made to date with conventional polyesters such as polylactide and […]

  • Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: Vojtech Vleck

    Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA, United States

    Prof. Vlcek Flyer Title: Excitation Dynamics Driving the Electronic Structure of Molecules and Solids Abstract: Capturing the dynamics of electronic excitations in realistic systems containing more than a few electrons is one of the outstanding theoretical challenges. Dynamical quantum correlations mediate interactions and couplings between multiple excited states in materials and represent an important driver […]

  • Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar Series: Megan Fieser

    Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA, United States

    Flyer: Prof. Megan Fieser Flyer Meet the Speaker: 11 a.m., YH 3096 Title: Development of Catalytic Strategies for Advances in Polymer Sustainability Abstract: As we strive to support our busy and demanding lifestyles, our dependence on disposable plastics has led to a global environmental crisis. The high stability of plastics to an array of conditions […]

  • Houk-Jung Organic Colloquium 247: Sidney Wilkerson-Hill

    Mani L. Bhaumik Centennial Collaboratory 607 Charles E. Young Dr., East, Los Angeles, CA, United States

    Seminar Sponsored by Organization for Cultural Diversity in Science Prof Wilkerson Hill Flyer Title: Orphaned Cyclopropanes Abstract: Cyclopropanes are strained carbocycles that have fascinated chemists for decades with many established methods for their construction. Unfortunately, many methods struggle to build cyclopropanes containing only alkyl functionality, which limits access to antiviral medicines (e.g., nirmatrelvir), pyrethroid insecticides […]

  • Inaugural Dickerson Lecture Biochemistry Seminar Series: Robert M. Stroud

    Boyer 159 611 Charles E Young Dr E, Los Angeles, CA 90095, Los Angeles, CA, United States

    Flyer: Dickerson Lecture Flyer - Robert M. Stroud Title: “Caught in the Act! - Building the Wall!" Abstract: From the atomic structure of the first protein, Myoglobin in which Richard Dickerson played the key role(1), proteins were necessarily purified from large animals. Now complex machines can be 'tagged' and purified endogenously from cells growing under […]
