Congrats to Team Rhenium (Gannon and Jeremy) upon the renewal of our NSF grant on N₂ splitting and ammonia formation. This is an awesome collaboration with Jim Mayer and Bob Crabtree at Yale, as well as Alex Miller at UNC and Alan Goldman at Rutgers. We’re looking for continued success and additional co-workers!

Congratulations on Ken on completion of his Master’s degree in the group. He distinguished himself as a thoughtful lab safety officer and contributor to the group. Ken will be continuing his chemistry career as a teacher in his home country of China. We wish him the best in the future!

Congratulations to Sam Bhutto, who is the recipient of a 2019 Prize Teaching Fellowship. This is a University-level award that recognizes our best teachers, and Sam earned it through outstanding work as a Teaching Fellow in Chem 226L (Intensive Advanced Chemistry Lab). Great job, Sam!

We are gratified that the U.S. Department of Energy has chosen to fund our project “Tandem Catalytic C-H Activation and N₂ Activation Using Iron Complexes.” This grant, starting Sept. 1, will support Sam’s continued work on a project started by Sean and Danny, which uses atmospheric N₂ to form organic compounds. Onward and upward!
