Ph.D. students Liam Wilbraham of Chimie ParisTech, France and Ági Szécsényi of Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands, join the group as visiting scholars during Spring 2016.

They will collaborate with Gagliardi Group members. Welcome to Liam and Ági!

Joshua Borycz, graduate student, received a separate $600 travel award as part of his Doctoral Dissertation Fellowship (DDF).

He will use these funds to travel to the University of California, Berkeley, where he will attend the annual all-hands meeting of the Center for Gas Separations (CGS), an Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) in which Minnesota participates. He will present work on CO₂ capture in MOFs (metal-organic frameworks), which is directly relevant to the mission of the CGS. Congratulations (again), Josh!

Three new Gagliardi group graduate students — Hung Pham, Debmalya Ray, and Prachi Sharma — join the ICDC.

Welcome!

As part of the meeting, the DOE held a competition in which each EFRC Director was invited to nominate a graduate student and a postdoctoral researcher to present a talk about their EFRC research.

Samuel Odoh was one of 16 finalists – and one of three winners! – for his talk, “Metal-Organic Framework Nodes as Nearly Ideal Supports for Molecular Catalysts: NU-1000 and UiO-66-supported Iridium Complexes for Ethylene Hydrogenation and Dimerization.” Congratulations, Sam!

Group member Sam Stoneburner received a Robert L. Ferm Outstanding Graduate TA Award for general chemistry. Congratulations, Sam!

Group member Chad Hoyer was one of four winners of the University of Minnesota’s 2015 Graduate Student Research Symposium Beaker & Bunsen awards.

Group member Becky Carlson was one of four runners-up. Congratulations, Chad and Becky! We are very proud of you.

Former group member Allison Dzubak received an award for doctoral thesis excellence.

Congratulations, Allison!

Fifth-year graduate student and Gagliardi Group member Joshua Borycz has received one of nine Doctoral Dissertation Fellowships provided to the Department of Chemistry by the University.

The Doctoral Dissertation Fellowship program gives the University’s most accomplished doctorate candidates an opportunity to devote full-time efforts to outstanding research projects by providing time to finalize and write a dissertation during the fellowship year. Congratulations, Josh!
