Description:

With their beamtime on HiFi originally scheduled for the summer, Coby Landry, Khash Ghandi and their team were unable to go ahead with their experiment as planned due to the ISIS COVID-19 shutdown. However, with a simple experimental setup, HiFi beamline scientist James Lord thought their experiment would be a suitable candidate for running under the current remote access regime.Read more at: https://www.isis.stfc.ac.uk/Pages/SH20_HiFi_remotely.aspx Prof. Michael Denk s research on new reactivity and potential applications of old biomolecules has recently been highlighted by Researchoutreach.org. Working with his students, PhD candidate Nicholas Milutinovic (Guelph) and Katherine Marczenko (B.Sc. Guelph; current PhD candidate McMaster), as well as collaborators, Prof. Denk has shown that well-known biomolecules may have great potential to clean up persistent and damaging halogenated organic molecules, such as the pesticide, DDT.Read more at:https://researchoutreach.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Michael-Denk.pdf Congratulations toProf. Aicheng Chenon being named as Fellow of the International Association of Advanced Materials (FIAAM).IAAM is a non-profit international scientific organization with 6000+ scientists from 70+ countries. The Fellow of IAAM is recognized as a prestigious title that is conferred only upon deserving researchers who have made significant contributions to the world of materials science, engineering and technology.Professor Chen delivered his IAAM Fellow Lecture entitled Development of nanostructured catalysts for the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide in the Advanced Materials Lecture Series on August 7, 2020. Congratulations to Aidan England, M.Sc. student in the Department of Chemistryforplacing 3rd inthe 3MT Community Choice Award forhis presentation "Fashion Forward: A Process for Plant-Based Fabric".Click here to view Aidan's presentation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Xh6Q9j2kFk&feature=youtu.beFor more information on the University of Guelph 3 Minute Thesis (3MT) competition, please visit: https://www.uoguelph.ca/graduatestudies/3mt Congratulations to the Preuss Group for the latest publication, entitled: Slow magnetization dynamics in a six-coordinate Fe(II)-radical complex", authored by Carolyn A. Michalowicz, Michelle B. Mills, Ellen Song, Dmitriy V. Soldatov, Paul D. Boyle, Mathieu Rouzieres, Rodolph Clerac, and Kathryn E. Preuss, Dalton Trans., 2019, 48, 4514-4519. DOI: 10.1039/c9dt00558g This manuscript has been selected as a HOT article by Dalton Transactions (Royal Society of Chemistry) and is now part of the curated quarterly HOT article collection. A HOT article contains research, which has been highlighted by reviewers as being interesting and significant research for the inorganic chemistry community. Congratulations to Harrison Young, an undergraduate student in the Preuss lab who has been selected to give a presentation at the 102nd Canadian Chemistry Conference and Exhibition (CCCE) in Quebec City this June as part of the "Canada in 2067: The Future Starts Now" special symposium. The symposium highlights outstanding undergraduate work froma ll areas of chemistry research, and only 20 students from across Canada were selected to present. Congratulations to Sharon Chenforreceivingthe Richard J. Kokes Travel Award for the 26th North American Catalysis Society Meeting in Chicago, USA. This is a very competitive award with over 360 excellent applications submitted for ~100 awards granted. The Richard J. Kokes Travel Award program of North American Catalysis Society (NACS) aims to encourage undergraduate and graduate students to attend and participate in its biennial conference. It provides funding to cover the student conference registration fee and provide accommodation. The Richard J. Kokes Travel Award is sponsored by the NACS with support from government agencies such as National Science Foundation (NSF) and United States Department of Energy (US-DOE). Congratulations Michelle Mills on being selected as the recipient of the Class of OAC'60 Outstanding Teaching Assistant Award.Full time graduate students are nominated by undergraduate, graduate and faculty members for teaching duties completed in the previous calendar year and only one highly qualified applicant will receive it. Congratulations to Jennifer Crha, M.Sc. student in the Department of Chemistryfor winning the 3MT Community Choice Award for her presentation "Vaccines at Guelph".For more information on the University of Guelph 3 Minute Thesis (3MT) competition, please visit: https://www.uoguelph.ca/graduatestudies/3mt Congratulations to Farroq Raouf for winning 2nd place for his oral presentation in Inorganic and Materials at the 47th Southern Ontario Undergraduate Student Chemistry Conference (SOUSCC), held on March 30, 2019. The SOUSCC provides undergraduate chemsitry, biochemistry and related area research students with the opportunity to present their research to their peers and university faculty in addition to both government and industry representativesThis year the event was hosted by the Department of Physical and Environmental Sciences at the University of Toronto Scarborough. Congratulations to Jennifer Chra, MSc Student in the Department of Chemistry who will move forward to the University of Guelph 3MT Final Competition for her presentation titled Vaccines at Guelph.Special mention to PhD students: Shuai Chen and Michal Moore for participating in the competition as well!Great job!The University of Guelph 3MT Final competition will be held on April 3rd at 1:00 pm in the University Centre, Room 442. Please show your support for Jennifer Crha Congratulations to Professor Mario Monteiro forbeing recognized asone of the Royal Bank of Canada's Top 25 Canadian Immigrants for making a positive impact on the community since arriving in Canada. Recognized as one of nine 'Outstanding Reviewers' by the Canadian Journal of Chemistry! Acid mine drainage: electrochemical approaches to prevention, and remediation of acidity and toxic metals It is with extreme sorrow that the Department of Chemistry announces the passing of Prof. Paul Rowntree. Paul was serving as Department chair at the time of his passing. Please follow this link to his obituary. Our Department of Chemistry will host ChemEd 2021, largest conference for high school chemistry teachers in North American in the summer of 2021. From July 25 to July 29, chemistry teachers will gather on our campus to share their ideas, engage in hands-on workshops, present new demonstrations and participate in fun events. Our goal is to support quality chemical education in the high school classroom. We will be looking for volunteers to help with this worthwhile conference. To keep up-to-date, sign up to receive email updates on theChemEd 2021 websiteand follow us onTwitter.Bonnie Lasby and Jean HeinChemEd 2021 Co-chairs An informative walk through the process of designing a scientific poster. Many useful tips. Minuscule particles that approach the atomic scale often display new and exciting properties that differ from those in the bulk material. Nanoscience studies these materials that are used across all the other science fields, such as chemistry, biology, physics, materials science, and engineering. Toxicology studies the adverse effects of chemicals on humans and the ecosystem. To fully understand the adverse effects, Toxicology draws from a broad array of related fields of study.
