Soon, we will need a bigger pool!
This year, the ICHIC meeting was in Tianjin, China. It was a great conference, seeing what folks in the field have been up to over the last couple years.

Congratulations to Dr. Avery To, who is the chemistry recipient of this year's W.B. Pearson Medal for his thesis titled "A Curiosity Driven Exploration of Hypervalent lodine(III) Reagents". This is the highest level of achievement for PhD graduates in Science at Waterloo.
Well done, Avery!
Congratulations Rahila on successfully defending your final MSc paper! Well done.
After ~7 years in the group as a PhD and PDF, we now say goodbye to Dr. Avery To. You have set the bar high in every way, and you will be missed.
All the best in your next adventure!
To celebrate the successful Chem494s, MSc seminar presentations and Avery's departure, a lunch at the pub was in order.

At the end of every year, the thesis project students present their research on seminar day. Congratulations to Ashley and Kaidyn on your excellent talks, and thanks for all the hard work over the last two semesters.
