Naomi has officially joined the Clark group as a first-year PhD student 🎉 She will work on aluminum and technetium chemistry as a part of efforts to understand the nuclear waste chemistry at the Hanford Nuclear Waste Site. Welcome Naomi!!
Taylor gave his 2nd year seminar on deconvoluting solution X-Ray scattering data through MD simulations. Congrats, Taylor, for passing this milestone in your research journey!
Our 2025 Secret Santa gathering was a cause to celebrate all! We celebrated Yihui’s graduation, Ege and Jadon’s PhD candidacy, Taylor’s imminent second-year seminar, and, finally, Hemanth’s time in the Clark group. We ate, drank, gave gifts, hung out with Chubs and Dr. Bonzo, and had a wonderful time. Thank you, Hemanth, for sharing everything…
Yihui successfully defended his thesis titled “Structure and Dynamics of Ion Networks in Concentrated Aqueous Electrolytes”. Congratulations Dr. Wei!
Jadon and Ege both passed their proposal exams and are now officially PhD candidates! 🎉
Simantini was at the ACS 2025 Fall gathering, representing the Clark Group. She presented her work on understanding ion mobility cluster topology and transport in concentrated LiCl electrolytes.
GRC was a blast! So much scientific socializing (some call it networking) and learning about cutting-edge research on the chemistry and physics of liquids! All of us presented our work in poster sessions. We did not neglect to pay a visit to MIT and Harvard. The titles of our presented works were as follows: Simantini:…
Jadon and Ege passed their pre-oral exams! Congrats to both 👯
All our third years passed their proposal exams and are now officially PhD candidates! We are excited to see all the amazing science they will continue to produce. Meanwhile, for now, congratulatory cheesecakes are in order.
Ege and Jadon have given their second-year physical chemistry seminars and both did a great job!
