Congratulations Shannon Stahl of UW-Madison Chemistry, newly inducted #NASmember! #NAS161 #chemistry

Congratulations to our newest PhD, Eric Weeda, who gave an amazing talk on his thesis research on lignin deconstruction and valorization. UW-Madison Chemistry Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center (GLBRC) UW Energy Institute

Congratulations to two of our outstanding group members, Jesse Martinez and McKenna Goetz, for their UW-Madison Chemistry GSFLC Mentor Awards!! Thanks for all you do to support others! This recognition is so well deserved!

Congratulations to Professor Dan Suess, Professor Alison Wendlandt, and Professor Bin Zhang, who have all earned tenure effective July 1, 2024! chemistry.mit.edu/chemistry-news…

Melissa and Maize (Davies group/Emory) show how an iron fuel cell electrocatalyst from PajaritoPowder crushes the competition in this synthetic aerobic oxidation reaction - converting hydrazones to diazo compounds for C-H insertion and cyclopropanation pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Finishing with flair, Melissa (Hopkins) Hall defended her thesis and leaves a legacy of exciting research. Congratulations, Melissa!! UW-Madison Chemistry

We're celebrating Chair Clark Landis today! Professor Landis delivered his retirement seminar and we learned a lifetime of work cannot be summed up in just one hour. Congratulations on your retirement, Professor Landis!

The Schreier Group is hiring a postdoc to work on exciting electrochemical scale-up and reactor design in collaboration with the pharmaceutical industry. We aim to fill the position by September 2024. Send your CV with publication list to [email protected] ⚡️🧪!

Couldn’t image a better mentor, committee member for many Stahl group students, and colleague. We’re still in a state of disbelief, but he’s going out at the top of his game!

The Stahl Group is doing nickel chemistry?!? Just ask Zhiming, who just completed an entire PhD thesis on the topic. We're looking forward to your upcoming papers - congratulations, Zhiming!

Asmaul and Tianxiao take us one step closer to eliminating peroxides and other undesirable oxidants in organic chemistry. Thanks to Darren Poole GSK for med chem contributions! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Zn and Mn are commonly used reductants in organic chemistry - but what are their redox potentials in organic solvent?!? Zhiming and Ruohan provide an answer and show why it matters in Ni XEC reactions. UW-Madison Chemistry Nature Chemistry (full access link) rdcu.be/dTa4I

Excited to share this capstone of Eric Weeda’s thesis: aerobic oxidation method for lignin conversion to aromatics - continuous process readily generates aromatics on 100 g scale, with line-of-sight to more.

Excited about our recent work! With Stahl Lab and a consortium of pharmaceutical companies, we built reactors to scale organic electrosynthesis. We found that mass transport and reaction mechanisms interact to define the reaction outcome! ACS Central Science tinyurl.com/3cyhbr5s
