The first research paper of the Simoska Lab is published in @nanoscale_rsc! We show the electrodeposition of nanoparticles on an array of ultramicroelectrodes. Congratulations to our awesome PI @oljasimoska, grad student @courtneyjoweber, and undergrad @Strom_Natalie1! ⭐️

Excited to share that our group has received funding support from the American Chemical Society Petroleum Research Fund (ACS PRF)! Grateful to my students and lab members for their hard work in preparing the proposal and supporting data under a tight timeline.

Stable reference electrodes for organic solvents—finally.
We report in ACS Electrochemistry development of an Ag/AgCl electrode that’s inexpensive (~$5), fast to make (~20 min), and stable for 21+ days in DMF, ACN, aniline & DMA—no water/O₂ exclusion needed. Work lead by our amazing graduate students @AlexReidellUSC, Christopher LeBarron, and our amazing undergraduate students including Meredith Stewart and Abby Koczaja.

Congrats, Olja!!! Well deserved, but I think you should win an award for being an advocate for ALL years of ALL students.
Humbled to receive the 2025 Dennis A. Pruitt Award for First-Year Student Advocacy. Watching students grow in confidence is the best part of my job. Thanks @UofSC, @UofSC_CAS, @UofSC_Chem: sc.edu/about/offices_and_div…
