If you are having trouble reading this email, you may view the online version. On Monday, September 2, the Google Service Team will delete all labeled files and folders owned by alumni, former students and former employee accounts that have been suspended for two or more years (prior to May 2022). This action will help NC State meet its Google Workspace storage quota. To learn more about this project, see the initial initial campus notification. What You Can Do Now 1. Use Drive Labels to identify files shared with you but still owned by suspended alumni and former employee accounts. Carefully review any Google Shared Folders that former users might own. These folders and their contents are slated for deletion unless action is taken. Google Shared Drives will not be impacted. For additional information, see Google Shared Drives vs Google Shared Folders. 2. View any impacted Google Drive files visible to you by: Clicking the following links in each category. PENDING DELETION – Alumni – Phase 2 (including Undergraduate, Graduate, PhD, etc.) Any file shared with you by a user classified as a graduated student before May 2022 will appear in the list and is scheduled to be deleted. Use this label if you have collaborated with students who graduated before May 2022. PENDING DELETION – Former Employee – Phase 2 Any file shared with you by a user classified as a former employee before May 2022 will appear in the list and is scheduled to be deleted. Use this label if you have collaborated with former employees whose accounts have been inactive for two or more years.   Creating your own search. Log in to drive.google.com with your Unity ID and password. From the Search field at the top of the page, click the Advanced Search icon. Click in the Labels search field. From the drop-down list, choose the label PENDING DELETION – Alumni – Phase 2 or PENDING DELETION – Former Employee – Phase 2 (Only select one label to search at a time,). Click Search.

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!

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’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

Ann Marie May (Postdoc Candidate from UNC CH) will have the floor

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!

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!
