Jenna (PhD candidate, Kerton group) is contributing pieces to the RSC journal blogs. Today, her short summary of North’s paper on novel Al complexes for carbon dioxide activation was published. You can find it here.
More information on the application process and grad studies in chemistry at Memorial Univ. can be found on this departmental site.
If any questions aren’t answered there, drop Fran or Chris a line
Dr. Kozak and Dr. Kerton have both had papers accepted during the holidays for a forthcoming special issue of the RSC journal Catalysis Science & Technology. This issue will focus on the important topic of conversion of carbon dioxide into value-added organics, which is guest edited by Arjan Kleij, a world leader in this area from the Institut CatalΓ d’InvestigaciΓ³ QuΓmica, Tarragona, Spain.
Dr. Kerton is also a co-author on a paper published by Prof. Ning Yan at the National University of Singapore, which is about the direct conversion of chitin into a N-containing furan (3A5AF).
Congratulations to all the co-authors on these papers!
