+1 volunteer!

It was great to visit the @vassar.bsky.social Chemistry Department and meet with some fantastic students and faculty. Especially awesome to see former colleague Myles [email protected] crushing it!

Excited to welcome Morgan Hern to the group as a new PhD student! Morgan is originally from Mooresville, NC and graduated from Appalachian State University earlier this year. We can't wait to see what you accomplish!

Happy Holidays from Barnett Group and Friends!

Congrats to Miranda Stewart and Marina Zapesochny for winning Chemistry Department Junior Awards!! If you're on a grad admissions committee, be on the lookout for their applications to your program this Fall!

New group swag, new group photo!

It's a great day for #MyFirstChemSci! In our new paper led by grad student Bevan Whitehead, we show that a fluorophilic Zn-based metal–organic framework shows a very large selectivity for CF4 adsorption over N2... just not in the way we thought it might. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Sensing that unseasonably warm (70 ºF ?!) temperatures await, the group emerges from its Hutchison lair for a new photo

We're excited to welcome Justin Hao (UR '27) to the group! Justin hails from Southlake, TX, and will be working with Lucy studying the chemistry of high-valent iron complexes relevant to oxidation catalysis. Welcome Justin!

We're super excited to welcome Irin Elizabeth Aby to the group as a new PhD student! Irin completed her joint B.S./M.S. at IISER Thiruvananthapuram, and will be designing new sorbents for the capture of perfluorinated compounds. Welcome Irin!!

*taps mic* Is this thing on? Hi #ChemSky! We're thrilled that Lucy Huffman (Walters Teaching Award) and Hope Silva (Junior Award) were bestowed with some hard earned awards at the Department's awards ceremony today. Way to go you two!
