Wonderful week attending the Organic Reactions and Processes GRC, as both a presenter and discussion leader. Thank you to Phil Wheeler and Alex Grenning for the invitation.
See y'all next year!
Dr. Avery To, who successfully completed his PhD defence this morning. Congratulations from all of us!!!
The first of our three summer students has arrived in the lab. Welcome to UWaterloo science student Isabel Song, who is funded through the NSERC USRA program.
At this year's GWC2 AGM, Carlee won both the Chem795 Doctoral Seminar Award and the Charles S. Humphrey Award. Add this on top of the NSERC Doctoral Award and she's having a great week.
Congratulations from all of us!
After a couple years playing in the area of deuterium chemistry, Ben successfully defended his MSc thesis titled "Synthesis of Deuterated Benzene for a Circular Deuterium Economy". It was all-around a great thesis and defence.
We wish you all the best in your future travels.
Our first joint paper with the Dieckmann lab is published. Avery built the molecule and Natasha & Lindsey played with it in the NMR.
More to come, including various isotopically-labelled variants.
At the end of every Chem392 project, the student delivers a seminar on their project. Teegan gave an excellent talk on cyanation of sulfoxonium ylides. Well done!
Congratulations, Avery, on winning a Fall 2023 Graduate TA Award for your work with Chem262.
Congratulations to Carlee on winning this year's Chem 795 Seminar Award! In addition to the $$$, she will be deliver her talk at this year's GWC2 Annual General Meeting in May.
