Farewell to Zhao! We wish him every success in his new position at UCSB. Zhao has been a prolific and beloved user of our facility. His presence and enthusiasm will be greatly missed.
Congratulations to Grace, Caden, and Alex on their publication, "Hydrogen bonding in cocrystals of trans-NiII(hfac)2(H2O)2"in @actacrystc.iucr.org. The paper is open access: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/iucr/doi/10....
We are so proud of our summer students, whose research with Alex culminated in poster presentations at the IUUR 2026 Poster Symposium. Congratulations on sharing your work and representing the Groups STEM Initiative at IU and the IUMSC so well!
Dorothy Hodgkin, Nobel Prize winner and crystallography pioneer, was born #OTD in 1910. Using X-ray crystallography she determined the structures of complex molecules including vitamin B10 and insulin: www.compoundchem.com/2019/05/12/h... #ChemSky 🧪
