Congratulations Shira!

☺️ thanks Shira!

Haha yes, I'm familiar with the Toronto racoons! Interesting that you haven't seen them in the prairies, maybe not as much accessible waste food?!

Thanks Derek!

Thanks Garrett!

Thanks Thomas, looking forward to being part of the team soon!

Thank you!

Thanks Rachel! ☺️

Thanks!

My research will focus on the study of atmospheric aerosols and environmentally relevant films using single particle and surface sensitive methods! I'm looking forward to starting a new Canadian chemistry adventure! 🇨🇦 🌥️

Why should you care about indoor air?

1) You spend over 90% of your time indoors.
2) Chemical concentrations are typically higher indoors.
3) You breathe in a greater air mass than you ingest water mass.
4) You can't control the air you breathe in public spaces.

Isn't this post ironic, don't you think? But seriously worth a read! www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2024/jan/02/smartphones-attention-economy-reclaim-free-time?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other

We report a new method for determining the viscosity and surface tension of supercooled liquid droplets using electrodynamic levitation and phase analysis of shape oscillations. The method u...

Happy to use my first skeet to announce publication of the FINAL paper from my PhD work & it's a radical one (pun intended)! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....
We used neutron reflectometry to show aqueous phase oxidation of organic films at the air-water interface is important for atmospheric aerosols.
