Jason was selected on the basis of his demonstrated ability and promise in research and his performance in his graduate courses.
Congratulations on the award, and don't spend it all in one place (unless it's taking the group to Korean BBQ).
Ryan and Farhana are done their coop placements and now they head back to school. Amy is done her eight-month placement and is headed back to Newcastle.
Thank you all for the hard work you've put in over the past semester(s) and good luck with your studies.
May 1st Update - The balance has been cleaned, and isn't isatin-orange anymore. Hooray!!!

Congratulations to Amy for the excellent presentation on her work on the halogenation of indole derivatives. Well done!
Based on our collaborative research into organic electrolytes with the Nazar group, Graham has been accepted as the newest member of the Waterloo Institure for Nanotechnology.
Graham has been recognized as one of the 10 best reviewers for Tetrahedron Letters. Thank you Elsevier, and the journal’s Editor, Professor John L. Wood, for the award.
Two new coop students have joined the lab for the Winter semester. Welcome Ryan Moreira and Farhana Abbas.
Our JACS paper has been selected for review by the Editorial Board of SYNFACTS "for its important insights".
Thank you very much!
A reprint of my personal copy is found here.
Graham was informed that he is a recipient of the Thieme Chemistry Journal Award for 2014.
Recipients are loosely defined as promising young professors at the beginning of their career (more or less), and every year a few of them are chosen to receive free print and electronic subscriptions of Synlett, Synthesis, and Synfacts as a gesture of encouragement.
Thank you to the editorial boards of the three journals for you consideration, and thanks to the group for their hard work.
