The first talk was given by former member Christian Malapit, who is currently undergoing a postdoc in Melanie Sanford’s lab at the University of Michigan. He did a great job, Congrats Christian!
Don and Katie (Katherine) helped our collaborators in the Suib group with work detailing the oxidation of amides to imides by MnO catalysts. Congrats guys!
