Making the “Wave”Driver Bipotentiostat

The second installment in our “waves” series is here!

We hope that you are caught up with our newsfeed! If not, we recommend starting with the first article in this series, which describes our use of “Wave” in product names. Our first article focused on the WaveNow. In this article we take a look at upgrading our older CBP bipotentiostat, to a more modern WaveDriver bipotentiostat. Readers will get a sense of the history of our bipotentiostat, as well as learn a thing or two about how modern potentiostats work and their relationship to the computer used to operate them.

Fast-Scan Cyclic Voltemmtery of Adenosine – Challenging Research by the Venton Lab

Today we feature the lab of Dr. Jill Venton, Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Virginia. Dr. Venton is also affiliated with the Neuroscience Graduate Program and the UVA Brain Institute. Dr. Venton earned her Ph.D. at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, under the direction of Dr. Mark Wightman. Following a post-doctoral research position at the University of Michigan under Dr. Robert Kennedy, Dr. Venton established her research career at the University of Virginia.

From the University of Virginia (Charlottesville, VA USA), the Venton Group takes a break from research to smile at the camera. Front, left to right: Yuanyu Chang, Jason Borgus, Scott Lee, Ying Wang.

Electrochemical Education for our Food, Energy, and Water Challenges

The theme of the 255^th ACS National Meeting is Nexus of Food, Energy & Water: Adapting to Future Challenges. The Sunday opening session speakers include leading experts in renewable energy, water treatment, and smart agriculture. It is likely these talks will present many challenges we face in society and how chemistry can provide solutions to these problems. The talks may also enlighten some chemistry and engineering students in high school, undergraduate, and graduate school to pursue research careers. Today’s younger generation are tomorrow’s research leaders. A thorough chemical education is necessary for our students to solve the challenges that await them. One area of chemical education that has been lacking in most academic institutions is electrochemistry. Concerning our challenges in food, energy, & water, electrochemistry plays an important role in all of those topics.
