Group is happy to welcome Jared, Jessica, and Laura as summer students. Jared is working with Minh and Rodrigo on photo excited states of a manganese-organic chromophore complex (as synthesized and studies by the Bergens group) for photocatalytic CO2 reduction. Laura is working with Rodrigo and Ismael on benchmarking methods for computing two-photo absorption. Jessica is working with Nathanael on exploring homodimers of asphaltene-model building blocks as well as some dimers of large asphaltene model compounds to explain experimentally observed NMR signals.
