Natalie Condino, a PhD candidate in the Auzanneau Lab received the Outstanding Oral Presentation award at the 20th Midwest Carbohydrate and Glycobiology Symposium held at the University of Toledo. Her presentation entitled, "Promoting anomerization of N-acetylglucosamine glycosides with a dibromomethane and dimethylformamide system" is a continuation of work previously published in Molecules.
The L. Chen group recently published their latest work in Nanoscale Advances entitled, "A density functional theory investigation of ammonia oxidation pathways on nickel oxide." The paper explores the use of advanced computational methods in probing the mechanism by which nickel-based materials function in direct ammonia fuel cells - an area of growing interest in renewable energy research.
