Mike Rosko’s JACS paper titled “Long Excited-State Lifetimes in Three-Coordinate Copper(I) Complexes via Triplet−Triplet Energy Transfer to Pyrene-Decorated Isocyanides” is now online. Congratulations to Mike!
Congrats to Irene Dzaye for Passing Her Prelim!
Irene presented her preliminary oral exam covering her work on Cr, Ru, and Re complexes featuring dqp ligands which each model different charge transer motifs.
Michael Rosko Wins the Robert A. Osteryoung Award for Research.
Michael’s excellent work on Cu(I) and his recent graduation with a Ph.D. in chemistry are well deserved given both the quantity and quality of research he has been a part of during his time in the Castellano Group
Group Meetings resume on June 14-th
Ann Marie May (Postdoc Candidate from UNC CH) will have the floor
2024 Spring graduation event
Congrats to our spring 2024 graduates Dr. Michael Rosko and Emma Messina! Emma will be continuing to grad school The University of Washington. Our group also had a blast attending Nobel Laureate Dave MacMillan’s talk as well as getting a chance to meet him!
Good job Emma!
Congrats to our undergrad researcher Emma Messina for presenting her senior thesis! “Photocatalyzed Hyperpolarization of Nitrate using Signal Amplification by Reversible Exchange”. Her hard work and dedication have paid off!
Castellano group at the Department of Chemistry poster session
The group had a blast at the departments 25th annual poster session! Our 2nd year grad students Adrienne Faulkner and Conor McCormick presented posters as well as 3rd year student Azka Arshad and post doc Alex Barth. Congrats to all who attended for the great work shown off!
Well done Mike!
Congrats to our latest PhD graduate, Dr. Michael Rosko
