Professor Christy Haynes (University of Minnesota) won the Theophilus Redwood Award from the Royal Society of Chemistry “for interdisciplinary work at the interface of analytical, biological, and materials chemistry and skills for passionately and effectively communicating science to broad audiences.” Christy was featured by the Royal Society here, and in a University of Minnesota press release here.
Congratulations to Christy Haynes, who has been awarded a prestigious Guggenheim Fellowship, which will help fund her sabbatical in Spain next year. The Guggenheim Foundation website states that “Fellowships are intended for individuals who have already demonstrated exceptional capacity for productive scholarship or exceptional creative ability in the arts.”
Congratulations to Kelly Zhang on being named a recipient of this year’s Paul Bender Memorial Award by the UW-Madison Department of Chemistry! Kelly is being recognized particularly for her CSN work investigating the morphology and dynamics of polymer-wrapped nanoparticles using most of the alphabet soup of NMR techniques, which you can read in her Analytical Chemistry paper linked here.
Congratulations to Meghan Cahill (Haynes group), an undergraduate researcher co-mentored by Natalie Hudson-Smith and Peter Clement, on being chosen as a winner of the Thomas DuBruil Undergraduate Research Award for 2018!
