Description
As of fall 2007, I have been a research student under the advisement of Dr. Martin Walker. Our reseach covers various green chemistry topics, including our most recent work with transacylation.
The project, which was originally begun by Jennifer Head and Matthew Hudson, has been passed on to myself for both completion and submission of final results.
Along with this research, I am working with Potsdam undergraduates Joe Panaresi and Mary Mapelli
