Using molten salts to probe outer-coordination sphere effects on lanthanide(iii)/(ii) electron-transfer reactions

Tom McCusker gave his 7th semester presentation, discussing his work with lanthanide hexamers in aqueous solutions. Way to go, Tom!

Alice Lulich, Anamar Blanes-Dias, Sabrina Jackson, Maddie Shore, and Sara Auffant all presented posters at the International Conference on Coordination Chemistry. This is by far the biggest group that we've brought to a conference and everyone did a fantastic job!

Maddie Shore won a Poster Award for her poster presentation at the International Conference on Coordination Chemistry. Nice work, Maddie!

Meiling Spelic presented at the Graduate School Literature Seminar, discussing the complexities of actinide molten flux.

Alice Lulich presented at the Graduate Student Literature Seminar. Her topic was on scintillation compounds, their design and limitations.

The group went to Fort Hunt Elementary School and volunteered at their science night. Demos included luminescence, liquid nitrogen, and making bouncy balls. What fun!

Sabrina Jackson passed her qualifying exam and is now a PhD candidate. Congratulations!

Tom McCusker passed his original research proposal. Way to go, Tom!

Alice Lulich, Meiling Spelic, and Gunjan Gupta all joined the lab. Welcome to the Knope Group!

Our fourth years (Maddie Shore, Lulio Sans, Anamar Blanes, and Morgan McDonald) all gave wonderful 7th semester talks. Nice job, team!

What a special day! Congratulations to Alex, our most newly minted Ph.D. Alex recently started a position at Inpria as a Senior Staff Chemist.

Congratulations to our undergraduate researcher Anuj Dutta for successfully defending his honors thesis! Good luck in med school!
