Jordan Galloway, a second year CCB students, spent his summer working at Idaho National Lab working in the nuclear science and technology division as part of his recently awarded GEM fellowship! Congratulations, Jordan, on a summer well spent.
Two new faculty are joining Chemistry and Chemical Biology: welcome to Professors Aurora Pribram-Jones and Shahar Sukenik! The Pribram-Jones group uses paper-and-pencil work, exactly solvable model systems, and computational studies to investigate the limits and breaking points of modern...
Professor Ryan Baxter has been funded by the NSF with a 5-year CAREER award. Professor Baxter is developing new strategies for initiating radical reactions through single-electron transfers. Because one electron reactions (radical reactions) are traditionally viewed as highly reactive and difficult...
Professor Ben Stokes received a grant from the Hellman Fellows Fund to develop new catalytic alkene functionalization reactions for the synthesis of quaternary carbon-containing compounds of pharmaceutical relevance.
For the first time, UC Merced’s doctoral programs in the sciences have been ranked among the best in the nation, according to U.S. News & World Report’s 2019 edition of Best Graduate Schools.
The School of Engineering celebrated its third appearance in the rankings, and this year marks UC...
Professor Hrant Hratchian's work published in JCP is chosen as an Editor's Pick! In this collaborative work with Dan Neumark's spectroscopy group at UC Berkeley, electron velocity-map imaging spectroscopy of cryogenically cooled TiO3H2− anions is used to reveal Herzberg-Teller...
Professor Anne Kelley has been named a 2018 Fellow of the Optical Society of America. Founded in 1916, The Optical Society (OSA) is the leading professional organization for scientists, engineers, students and business leaders who fuel discoveries, shape real-life applications and accelerate...
Professor Christine Isborn's recently published paper in the Journal of Chemical Physics describing a new method for modeling absorption spectra for molecules in solution has been chosen as an Editor's Pick.
Xi Chen, a graduate student working with Aleksandr Noy, recently received a graduate fellowship for his work on carbon nanotube-based devices for biosensing. More details on the fellowship can be found on the UCOP website.
Five UC Merced students brought home awards for their research at this year’s Society for Advancement of Chicanos/Hispanics and Native Americans in Science (SACNAS) Diversity in STEM conference.
