  • Fundamental Investigations of Electrocatalysis: Mechanistic Implications of Catalyst Electronic Structure

    Creator:
    Carvalho, O. Quinn
    Abstract:
    Heterogeneous catalysis modulates the rate and selectivity of reaction processes by stabilizing a series of intermediate states on solid surfaces, facilitating the production of many commodity chemicals modern society relies upon. Conventional, thermal catalytic processes—conducted at elevated temperatures and pressures—source thermal, mechanical, and chemical potential energy from carbon-hydrogen bonds— combustion...

  • Mathematical and Experimental Approaches for Designing Less Toxic Cryopreservation Methods

    Creator:
    Warner, Ross M.
    Abstract:
    Successful cryopreservation of all biological specimens would have an untold positive impact on medicine and scientific research. However, cryopreservation of the most complex biological specimens, such as tissues and organs, remains elusive. Vitrification, or ice-free cryopreservation, is promising for cryopreservation of complex specimens. The biggest challenge, though, is the toxicity...
