Chan Research Group - 2016 in Review

2016 was an eventful year for the Chan Research Group. We had two graduate students and a visiting researcher join our team, major renovations done, instruments purchased, and our first paper published. Here's looking back at our first year of operation:

Feb 2016:   Dr. Chan was awarded an NSERC Discovery Grant.
Mar 2016:   Renovations to our D'Iorio 327 and 320 labs began.
Apr 2016:   Thomas Brossier, visiting MSc student from Paris, arrived in Ottawa.
Jun 2016:   Guoxian and Craig joined us as grad students.
Aug 2016:   Lab renovations complete. The Chan Group moved in.
Dec 2016:   Published our 1st paper on sulfonamide emitters in ACS Omega [link].
