“Dissecting B. burgdorferi Gene Regulation: Single-Cell Approaches and Regulatory RNA Networks,” presented by Dr. Phil Adams, National Institute of Allergy & Infectious Diseases.

Presenter and title to be announced.

In this seminar, Dr. Gary Douberly, Chair and Professor in the Department of Chemistry, will present “Spectroscopy of Molecular Aggregates in Helium Droplets.” The seminar will be hosted by Dr. Ursula Mazur.

In this seminar, Dr. Kristen Johnson, hosted by Dr. Ursula Mazur, discusses how self-assembly within model cooking-emission films influences atmospheric oxidation. Using spectroscopic and microscopic techniques, the study reveals that organized molecular structures slow chemical aging, alter film morphology, and affect the persistence and evolution of organic aerosol particles.
