Interested in #perovskites? Read "Reducing hot carrier cooling rate in metal halide perovskites through lead vacancies: time-domain ab initio analysis" by Oleg V. Prezhdo USC Chemistry, Wei Li et al. doi.org/10.1039/D4QI00…

My lab USC Chemistry has a postdoc position open for an enthusiastic individual interested in protein posttranslational modifications. Background in carbohydrate or peptide/protein chemistry is a plus but not a requirement. theprattlab.com

The Fieser Chemistry Research Group at USC wants to learn more about what you know about plastic sustainability so we can put the best information on our education website. Please fill out the brief survey and share this post! forms.gle/WRxFi6uThdwu5Z…

Congratulations to Dr. Velazquez for successfully defending his Ph.D. thesis this week! We are all very proud of you and impressed by all the exciting science you accomplished these past five years. Wishing you the best on your next chapter! 🥂🍾 USC Chemistry

Leadership news: Stephen Bradforth, Professor of Chemistry, has been appointed Executive Vice Dean of USC Dornsife. He'll work with Interim Dean Moh El-Naggar to maintain continuity in academic operations across the college, supporting Dornsife’s faculty and students.

Thanks so much to Karla for interning in our lab this summer from cerritoscollege It was a real pleasure having you work with us. You did great! USC Chemistry

Here is our recently published work on using light and photoacids for controlling CO2 in a conventional non-aqueous CO2 sorb material. The trick is to use protons (the fulcrum of the lever in the image below) to couple the two equilibria. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Thanks for continued support from and collaboration with Veronica Augustyn and Rodríguez-López Electrochemistry Lab at Illinois . Thanks for support from DOE Office of Science . Congratulations to authors (specifically to Berk Delibaş who is on Twitter/X).

Happy first day of classes, Trojans! Here's to a fall semester filled with learning, growth and new connections. Fight On! ✌️

Last week, we welcomed our first year Ph.D. students during our orientation week for Fall 2024! We are excited to see all the amazing things you will do at USC! A special shout-out to USC CGSO for helping with hosting the ice cream social and trivia night! Lastly, Fight On! ✌🏽

I can't believe this program between USC Chemistry & cerritoscollege has been running for 14 years now and has reached almost 50 students. All the interns have transferred to 4-year universities and over 95% have majored in STEM. dornsife.usc.edu/news/stories/u…

Our recent collaborative work with Dmitry Eremin Fokin Lab USC on assessing the oxidative effects of micro droplets was just accepted in Angewandte Chemie . We use a series of ferrocenes to calibrate the extent of oxidation in nebulized sprays. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…
