Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: Christy Landes

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

Prof. Landes Flyer Title: Towards Predictive Protein Separations: Imaging Protein Dynamics at Nanoscale Interfaces Abstract: Recent efforts by our group and others have shown the promise of applying single molecule methods to link mechanistic detail about protein adsorption to macroscale observables. When we study one molecule at a time, we eliminate ensemble averaging, thereby accessing […]

Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar 278: Van Sara Thoi

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

Flyer: Prof. Van Sara Thoi Flyer Meet the Speaker: 11 a.m., YH 3096 Title: Designing Functional Sites in Porous Materials for Energy Storage and Conversion Abstract: Despite their high theoretical specific energy of 2,600 Wh kg-1, the commercialization of lithium-sulfur batteries is hindered by irreversible capacity loss from the dissolution of polysulfide intermediates in the […]

Houk-Jung Organic Colloquium 247: Phil Baran

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

Prof. Baran Flyer Title: Simplifying Synthesis with Electricity Abstract: Organic synthesis is one of the great branches of Chemistry that has had a profound impact on the betterment and advancement of civilization. In its most modern manifestations, it renders the dream of alchemy (turning something worthless into something valuable) a reality. It places the practitioner […]

Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar 278: Joseph W. Kolis

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

Flyer: Prof. Joseph W. Kolis Flyer Meet the Speaker: 11 a.m., YH 3096 Title: Hydrothermal Synthesis of Metal Vanadates: From Lasers to Frustrated Magnets and Maybe Even Some Quantum Materials Abstract: The high-temperature hydrothermal method (with temperatures 5-700˚C, pressures 200MPa) can be an excellent route to new materials, often in the form of large, high-quality […]

Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: David Waldeck

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

Prof. Waldeck Flyer Adventures with Chiral Induced Spin Selectivity Abstract: Abstract: Since Louis Pasteur, chemists have been fascinated by chirality, however its connection with electron spin was not realized until the 21st century and its implications for chemistry and biochemistry is only beginning to be revealed. I will discuss chiral induced spin selectivity (CISS), which […]

Houk-Jung Organic Colloquium 247: Javier Read De Alaniz

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

Prof Read de Alaniz Flyer Title: Simplifying Synthesis With Chemistry Abstract: Photons have multiple enabling advantages to control chemical reactions, processes and stimuli-responsive materials. In this seminar, I will discuss our groups effort to design and develop a new class of negative photochromic molecules termed DASA, their incorporation into materials and subsequent effort to unlock […]

Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar 278: Joshua Goldberger

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

Flyer: Prof. Joshua Goldberger Flyer Meet the Speaker: 11 a.m., YH 3096 Title: New Directions in Layered, Anisotropic Materials Abstract: Layered and 2D materials are currently one of the most well-studied classes of solid-state compounds, due to the plethora of unique physical phenomena found in these materials coupled with advances in the characterization of structure […]

Houk-Jung Organic Colloquium 247: Clemence Corminbouef

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

Prof Corminbouef Flyer Title: NaviCat: Computational Tools to Navigate Molecular Catalyst Landscape Abstract: Over the last few years, we have worked on an assortment of computational and digital tools aimed at accelerating the through exploration and optimization of homogeneous catalyst landscapes. These interoperable tools are assembled into the NaviCat (Navigating Catalysis) platform, which includes: volcanic, […]

Jeffrey I. Zink Inorganic Chemistry Seminar 278: Neil Tomson

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

Flyer: Prof. Neil Tomson Title: Ligand Flexibility in Surface-Inspired Cluster Chemistry Abstract: Metallic surfaces perform many chemical transformations that hold promise for the future energy economy, including dinitrogen reduction, ammonia oxidation, and alkane synthesis, but surfaces are difficult to tune, limiting chemists’ ability to improve their efficiencies. Molecular cluster complexes inspired by surface chemistry have […]

Physical Chemistry Seminar 228: Jennifer Dionne

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

Title: Lighting Up the Oceans: Emerging Nanophotonic Platforms for Real-time Ocean Observation Abstract: The oceans are the largest biological habitat in the known universe and are among the least charted. Covering over two and a half times the area of Mars, the oceans host diverse microorganisms that cycle nearly all chemical elements and are responsible […]
