It’s that bitter sweet time of year when some of our visiting students head back to their home labs after time with us. Thank you to Dahryn, from UWI-St. Augustine, for visiting us via the Emerging Leaders in the Americas Program.

We have had 4 undergraduates working with us this summer including 2 international students via Mitacs Globalink.
Members of the group have been attending several conferences including the U. of Toronto Green Chemistry Initiative Symposium, the CSC in Vancouver, the GCE conference in Long Beach and the IUPAC World Chemistry Congress in the Hague. Congratulations to Wynnry on her poster prize at the GCI Symposium.
Closer to home, we have been to St. Vincents Beach to see the whales, had a group BBQ and had visitors to the department including Prof. Kenichiro Itami (Job Lecturer from Nagoya University).

Wishing everyone a peaceful time! Our group has had a busy semester. The faculty SEA conference has been happening this week. Sara Cheema gave her Masters Research Seminar on Tuesday – the photo includes most group members and our wonderful collaborator Dr. Stockmann. We look forward to seeing many of our friends over the coming months and at various conferences around the world.
Below is a photo of Dr. Kozak wearing one of his new shirts from Party Puffin Apparel, https://www.partypuffinapparel.com/, watch out for more of these cool shirts over the Spring and Summer

Thank you to the Faculty of Science for organizing the SEA conference.
This was the first chance for members of our team to present their research in person. Congrats to all involved.
Sharing these posters today is in memory of Steve Westcott (Mount Allison Professor, Friend of the Group, Outstanding Chemist, Cat Whisperer, Rock Star and so much more). You will be missed Steve! Rest in Peace.

It’s an extra busy time of year in our group. We have new students arriving (more on them after our move), teaching beginning and a huge move!.
We got to take a look inside the moving to help us plan where we are going to store our glassware, equipment and chemicals. Here are some photos.
More will follow once we unpack and settle in. Please get in touch if you want to visit later this semester or in the coming years. I think this will be a fantastic location for a sabbatical or research visit.

Time for a new photo before Kori begins her studies in Dentistry, Tim moves to Halifax to postdoc at Dalhousie and Ju moves to Montreal to postdoc at McGill. Lots of changes on the horizon including the move to the new Core Science Facility. We are on the steps of the Chemistry/Physics building today. They’ll be another photo soon as we are missing Matthew, Claire and Cloe this morning…..and a third in September when new MSc students arrive 🙂
