We are incredibly proud of all our Illinois chemistry students who showcased their research during the Undergraduate Research Week Symposium. Your energy and enthusiasm were truly inspiring!🙌

We are so excited for the UIUC undergraduate research symposium this Thursday, where our very own undergraduate researchers, Allie and Saiesha, will present their work! The 2026 program and a full list of presenters can be found here: undergradresearch.illinois.edu/events/researc…

New paper alert: Nabhendu and Nicole's review of high-valent transition metal-oxo complexes just got published! Find it in Chemical Reviews here: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

We are so proud of our very own Niku Cowart and his decision to attend The Ohio State University in the fall to pursue his PhD is Chemistry! Best of luck, Niku. We are all excited to see what amazing things you do on your journey!

Today, NSF announced it has made offers & will award 2,500 Graduate Research Fellowships for the 2026-2027 academic year to outstanding graduate students across the U.S. pursuing research-based degrees in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. bit.ly/4cpAHBO
