Fluorescence applications as Single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (smFRET) requires high photo-stability and brightness of fluorophores. A series of cyanine dye molecules have been synthesized with significantly enhanced brightness, lifespan and water solubility by covalently attaching triplet state quenchers (TSQ) to the fluorophores along with other structural modifications. The advanced physical properties of these new fluorophores have already led to several previously impossible research projects, and shed light on both cellular and molecular processes masked by ensemble averaging in bulk investigations.Zhou Zhou, Queensborough Community CollegeFlyer7Westchester Chemical SocietyZoom Seminar Safety, Fire, and Chemical Hazards in Special EffectsMonona Rossol, M.S., M.F.A., Arts, Crafts & Theater Safety, Inc.Flyer20Biochemical Topical GroupWebinar: Novel Inflammatory Pathways in Chronic Human Liver DiseasesRegistration Website22Hudson - Bergen SubsectionChemistry and Biology of Benzimidazoles: A priviledged heterocyclic scaffold for Medicinal ChemistryProf. Sabesan Yoganathan, PhD, Department of Pharmaceutical SciencesSt. John's University25New York Local SectionNational Chemistry Week - Sticking with Chemistry!Virtual Chemistry Demo ShowRegistration Website25New York Local SectionNational Chemistry Week - Sticking with Chemistry!Illustrated Poem ContestSubmission DeadlineRegistration Website25New York Local SectionNational Chemistry Week - Sticking with Chemistry!Adhere to Chemistry - Kahoot.it!Registration Website27Biochemical Topical GroupWebinar: Immune Contribution to Heart Failure and Therapeutic OpportunitiesRegistration Website28New York Local SectionThe December Indicator Submission DeadlineJames Flack Norris Award for Outstanding Achievement in Teaching of Chemistry earned by Prof. Paris Svoronos of Queensborough Community College Prof. Paris SvoronosProf. Paris Svoronos from Queensborough Community College is a recipient of the 2020 James Flack Norris Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Teaching of Chemistry by the Northeastern Section of the American Chemical Society.
