Emma Lord, MSc

Earlier this month, I had the honour of advancing to the Three-Minute Thesis (3MT) finals for the University of Toronto. In this competition, students have 3 minutes and one static slide to present their thesis to a non-expert audience. I’m excited to share the video recording my talk, where I describe my project on developing next-generation zinc batteries: youtu.be/PXZgpF2V3DM Thank you to the judges and coordinating team at UofT that make this competition possible!

🎉 Go Emma! Our ChemEng grad student Emma Lord is heading to the 3MT final! 🧪✨Join us Mar. 25 to cheer her on and see amazing graduate research in action. 📍 William Doo Auditorium, New College II 🔗sgs.eve.utoronto.ca/home/events/65…

Excited to share I successfully defended my MSc thesis yesterday! Thank you to the examiners who evaluated my work and to my supervisor, @Ding_Lab, for his guidance. Thank you to my many mentors and friends for their support throughout my time at Western. I am grateful to announce I will be pursuing my PhD this fall at the University of Toronto in the department of @ChemEng_UofT under the supervision of @yuweilai93.

Final conference of my MSc complete! I had a great time presenting one of my MSc projects and networking with other chemists at #CSC2025 last week in Ottawa. Thank you to the symposium organizers, Dr. Brosseau and Dr. Ogata, and to the CSC team who made this event possible.

Enjoyed attending and being part of the organizing committee for this year’s CanBIC (canbic.ca/index.html) conference! It was a great opportunity to learn from chemists and work with a great team. Thank you to @MJStillmanGroup and @Ding_Lab and hope to be back for CanBIC-10!

Check out this week's Tinker Tuesday where I make some fiery, carbon clouds! Join us at Western Science Rendezvous this Saturday from 12-6 pm in the Thompson Arena.

🔥🌈 Ready to light up your curiosity? For this #TinkerTuesday, volunteer Emma returns to turn up the heat with a dazzling flame test demo! Watch how different elements make fire change colour—science has never looked so bright! youtu.be/xYj_UU5RkfM

🎉 #TeamworkThursdays 🌟 Shoutout to the Communications Committee—the masterminds behind the magic of Science Rendezvous! 🚀✨ From crafting posts 📱 to designing graphics 🎨, they make science fun & accessible! 💡🔍 Let’s celebrate their hard work! 🙌💜 #SciRenUWO #SciComm

Kate is one of the most impressive students I've had the privilege of working with in @Ding_Lab. Way to go @RobergeKat69306!

Had so much fun showing how chemiluminescence, a process we study in @Ding_Lab, works! Join us at Science Rendezvous on May 10th for a full day of STEAM activities.

Had a great time at the Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) National Conference this past January! I was grateful to participate in and win 1st place in the 5 Minute Thesis (5MT) competition. Thank you to @WISEUofT for their impressive organization of this conference.

Enjoyed attending and presenting at ECS Western's 7th Annual Graduate Student Research Symposium last week!  Thank you to @WesUniECS for the great opportunity to share electrochemistry research with others at Western.

Had a great experience at the International Symposium on Electrochemistry and Surface Science (ISESS) recently held at @uofg. Grateful to have been selected as an oral presentation award winner and for the opportunity to connect with professors and students in electrochemistry.

Emma @EmmaMaeLord@Ding_Lab @westernuchem @westernuScience @WesternU has won a student oral presentation award in the 13th NAnoOntario Conference nanoontario.ca/the-13th-nanoo…

Thank you to Dr. Lagugné-Labarthet and Dr. Paul for organizing this conference!

@jwinslade_ Thank you Jess!

Congratulations @EmmaMaeLord !! Well deserved

The Ding Research Group is with a fantastic inorganic electrochemist @icjennikins at her 2024 Pattison lecture @westernuchem @westernuScience @WesternU

Emma @EmmaMaeLord @westernuchem @westernuScience @WesternU has made our brand new Ding Research Group web at publish.uwo.ca/~zfding/. Many thanks. Many more are coming.
