Watch the Nobel Prize lectures in chemistry.
See the 2023 chemistry laureates Moungi Bawendi, Louis Brus and Aleksey Yekimov deliver their Nobel Prize lectures.
Where are you watching from?

I remember fondly of listening to her mandarin songs in high school, in the early years of coming to Canada. I always picked her songs at karaoke (and failed miserably). A favourite is the duet - “She cries before sleep”

Attending a conference in my hometown means I get to be a tour guide. 😉 Here’s the group at Lynn Valley Canyon! (I did not remember there were so many steps!)
A nice end to #CSC2023
Our group is at #CSC2023! Check out:
1- Brian’s talk at 2:40pm Monday in room 110
2 - posters from Yuwei and Bohan Wednesday evening
3- my talk at 12pm Thursday in room 204 (if not in a rush for lunch)
It’s the first conference for many group members!
Congratulations to the newly minted Dr. Malile (@BrioMali)! 🎉🥳He was the first to step into my (then empty) lab, helped realize many research ideas and has been with me through the good and difficult times. I’m so happy and proud to see the growth of a well rounded scientist!
5 undergrad students from @YorkUChem participated at #SOUSCC51. Notably, @AlexAkhundov from @christine_m_le group won 1st place in oral presentation in org/med chem, and Gabriela from Pietro lab won 1st place in oral presentation in phys chem!
Great talks also from Samantha (@chriscaputoTO), Chalisa (@TVandenBoer) and Mahya (@jchen_lab)!
Thanks also to the support from @JAWijngaarden
At urgent care clinic for over 2.5 h because a kid stuck a little rock in 4 yo daughter’s ear. 😡😞
Can we please fix the healthcare in Canada?
Hoping to see changes/recommendations implemented before becoming a statistic in the leaky pipeline (despite having an extremely supportive partner).
We’ve just published a preprint explaining our policy recommendations for funding agencies in detail and the research and rationale supporting them. Read & share to help us make change! tinyurl.com/2b5estfn #action4STEMMoms

Beautiful glistening trees on campus today.
And perfect snowflakes captured a couple weeks ago. Saw some today too.
I can think of several chemistry-related questions. 😉

CO2 level in YorkU exam centre (Sobey’s). After ~1.5h of students entering, it rose to >1200ppm.
Much worse than in April..

Latest work by @BrioMali shows Mn(II)-doped QD films photocatalyze reductive organic transformations with a boost in efficiency from enhanced Auger processes.

It’s never easy to branch out and tackle a new research area, but who better to do it than @BrioMali. Very grateful for his leap of faith and hard work that see this project come to fruition.
