Nice work by Chloe Litts

An honor to be recognized by the Campus Teaching Excellence Award from University of Illinois Provost. Immensely grateful to the students who wrote letters & U of I College of LAS Chemistry at Illinois for nominating. I've had a ball teaching (and learning) Thermodynamics/StatMech for over a decade.




Excited for group alumna Progna Banerjee, Ph.D who starts a tenure-track position and her new research group Loyola University Chicago. Congratulations and looking forward to many exciting things to come from the Banerjee Lab.

Congratulations Progna Banerjee, Ph.D on the start of your research laboratory Loyola University Chicago. Excited for you and your new research group. Glad to have been a small part of your scientific journey.

🚦🚦🚦B R E A K I N G N E W S 🚦🚦🚦 We've just published the preliminary program for the next Gordon Research Conferences on Plasmonically Powered Processes 2025! I cannot be happier and prouder for such a diverse & groundbreaking line-up! 🙏Thanks all! grc.org/plasmonically-…

In PNAS we report how electromagnetic fields direct charge flow, reaction pathways, & selectivity in CO2 reduction pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… Phenomenal teamwork with Frank Alcorn Northwestern collaborator George Schatz with Sajal Kumar Giri, @mayachatt_ & Rachel Nixon Chemistry at Illinois



Combining visible light & electrochemistry, a team led by Prashant Jain Prashant Jain has enhanced the conversion of carbon dioxide into valuable products & stumbled upon a discovery that opens new avenues for CO2 conversion & other chemical reactions. news.illinois.edu/view/6367/5245…

It almost reads like science fiction: pulling CO₂ right out of the atmosphere to create new hydrocarbon fuel, eliminating the need for extraction and new carbon emissions. A Chemistry at Illinois team has discovered that lasers could make it a reality. scitechdaily.com/two-for-one-de…

Happy to share our recent work on single-particle plasmon coupled circular dichroism (PCCD) in Nano Letters. Congrats to Ojasvi Verma and the whole team @ Stephan Link and Prashant Jain Prashant Jain . pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…
