This semester’s lab (and friends!) outing was an Escape the Room night! Tons of fun, even though we didn’t quite make it out. Next time!

Congrats to Mark on successfully defending his thesis! The hard work has certainly paid off. Your labmates are grateful for your mentorship and friendship.

Congrats to Kayleigh, as her hard work is paying off! She is a recipient of the Doctoral Dissertation Completion Grant for the spring semester. Time to get writing!

Thank you to Villanova University for hosting the 4th Philadelphia Inorganic Colloquium! Make sure to check out the PIC website for future meetings!

The College of Science and Technology announced the honorees of the 2016 Distinguished Faculty awards last week. Ann has received the Dean’s Distinguished Teaching Award. Congrats Ann!

Thank you for everyone who stopped by Kayleigh, Corey, and Anna’s posters and attended Ann’s talk at the ACS National Meeting in our city! We are very proud of the great representation by Temple University Chemistry in all divisions!

Had a question for us and didn’t get to ask? Feel free to contact us.

The group attended the 6th Mid-Atlantic Seaboard Inorganic Symposium, or MASIS, which was hosted by the University of Pennsylvania. The talks started off with Kayleigh Jones, who presented on her research about the interactions of Ti(IV) with the siderophore, DFOB. She was even tweeted by the Schelter group!Also representing Temple by hosting a talk were Ian McKendry (Zdilla lab) and Joe Becica (Dobereiner lab). We are very proud of the great turnout from Temple in both talks and poster presentations!

We couldn’t ask for a better lab outing than rooting for the home team on a beautiful summer evening! We saw several home runs and ate several buckets of crab fries in a Phillies victory over the Atlanta Braves.

Lauren Profitt passed her fifth and final cumulative exam! Congrats on accomplishing another benchmark of the program. Keep up the great work.

Great news for the lab this week!

Mark received Temple University’s Doctoral Dissertation Completion Grant for this fall and Lauren received Temple’s First Summers Research Initiative award. Awesome job, folks!
