McGill Seminar-Dr. Antoine Simonneau: Reductive Chemistry of Small Molecule Through Interplay of Electron-Rich Metal Species and Main Group Lewis acids

Activation of small molecules by donor-acceptor systems is conceptually important as many catalytic processes rely on the synergistic action of electron-rich and -poor sites to cooperatively activate and cleave bonds. This pertains to both the biological and industrial chemistry contexts.

2026 Annual AMR Symposium

The McGill AMR Centre is hosting its 6th Annual Symposium on the theme One Health AMR. We are inviting you to join this in-person event to network and discuss antimicrobial resistance (AMR) related topics, AMR community research interests and needs.  Preliminary program includes keynote presentations, faculty talks, trainee flash talks, career luncheon and poster session and new fireside chat with keynote speakers.

McGill Seminar- Mike Fleischauer: National Research Council - Quantum and Nanotechnologies Research Centre

Dynamic measurements of samples and devices in real operating conditions can provide insight on complex reactions and processes. We’re particularly interested in how and why lithium-ion batteries (and components thereof) fare in harsh environments – e.g. at low and high temperature, and high(er) stress / pressure.
