Cyclic Voltammetry Boot Camp is a 3-day workshop designed to provide participants with the practical knowledge necessary to carry out robust cyclic voltammetry measurements in their independent research. The workshop includes both lectures and hands-on laboratory sessions.
Alex Peroff joined the Pine Research team as an Electroanalytical Scientist in 2016. Alex came to Pine Research after earning his Ph.D. at Northwestern University under the direction of Richard Van Duyne and Eric Weitz. Following his doctorate, Alex completed a post-doctoral position at SUNY Albany. Alex resides in the Durham, North Carolina area.
Dr. Kathleen Nevins is the Director of Undergraduate Laboratories within the UNC Department of Chemistry. Kathleen earned her Ph.D. in inorganic materials chemistry from SUNY Buffalo under Dr. David Watson and began working at UNC directly after graduate school in 2013.
Megan began her scientific career as an undergraduate at Caltech. There, she conducted research in the laboratory of Prof. Harry Gray, where she was introduced to molecular synthesis, spectroscopy, and inorganic chemistry. This introduction to coordination chemistry and organometallics served as the lens through which she approached heterogeneous electrocatalysis as a National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellow in the Surendranath lab at MIT. After receiving her Ph.D. in 2019, she joined the Long lab at UC Berkeley, supported by an Arnold O. Beckman Postdoctoral Fellowship and a University of California President’s Postdoctoral Fellowship Program Award. Her postdoctoral research focused on bringing molecular-level understanding to the factors governing the materials properties of metal-organic framework crystals. She joined the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 2022. Her favorite transition metal is Pt.
Jillian Lee Dempsey is an American inorganic chemist and the Bowman and Gordon Gray Distinguished Term Professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Currently, Research in the Dempsey group aims to address challenges associated with developing efficient solar energy conversion processes. We are particularly interested in charge transfer processes associated with solar fuel production, including proton-coupled electron transfer reactions and electron transfer across interfaces. Our research program bridges molecular and materials chemistry and relies heavily on methods of physical inorganic chemistry, including transient absorption spectroscopy and electrochemistry.
