YCIU Extended Seminar: Celebrating Dark Matter Day

11:00 AM – 12:30 PM

Kline Tower, New Haven, CT

The YCIU invites you to celebrate Halloween and Dark Matter Day with a special extended seminar event on Friday, October 30, 2026, in the Kline Tower 509 Lounge at 12:00 p.m. The event will feature a program of 1–2-minute lightning talks and collaborative discussions on dark matter. We strongly encourage students and early-career researchers to participate and share their work through either a lightning talk or a poster presentation. Whether you are a student, an active researcher, or simply interested in learning more about one of the universe's greatest mysteries, we hope you will join us…

Polymers on Metal Nanoparticles: beyond Surface Capping to Active Interfaces

3:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Sterling Chemistry Laboratory, New Haven, CT

Please join Yale Chemistry for a Silliman Seminar in materials chemistry with Prof. Jie He, Professor of Chemistry, University of Connecticut. Abtract: Loading catalytic metals on polymer supports to produce “soluble” catalysts has long been used in catalysis. Harnessing synergies at the interface of polymers and inorganic catalytic components is, however, still challenging. Our group works on developing new synthetic methodologies of hybrid polymer/inorganic materials (metal ions and nanoparticles) with well-defined chemical compositions, nanostructures and synergetic functionalities. We s…

2026 Chupka Lecture: Boron Nanoclusters

3:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Sterling Chemistry Laboratory, New Haven, CT

Please join Yale Chemistry for the 2026 William A. Chupka Lecture in physical and theoretical chemistry with Prof. Lai-Sheng Wang, Jesse H. and Louisa D. Sharpe Metcalf Professor of Chemistry, Brown University. Summary: The study of carbon clusters led to the discoveries of fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and graphene. Are there other elements that can form similar nanostructures? With this question in mind, we have been investigating the size-dependent structures and chemical bonding of boron nanoclusters using photoelectron spectroscopy over the past two decades. We have found that elementa…

Radial aromatics, metal-metal bonds, and anion receptors all under one roof

3:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Sterling Chemistry Laboratory, New Haven, CT

Please join Yale Chemistry for a Silliman Seminar in inorganic chemistry seminar with Prof. Raúl Hernández Sánchez, Norman Hackerman Welch Young Investigator and Assistant Professor at Rice University. Summary: Macrocyclic arene compounds have played a fundamental role in the development of supramolecular chemistry. Research on these systems have laid the foundations to explore and establish non-covalent interactions, e.g., hydrogen bonding, π···π stacking, C–H···π interactions. My research group has taken the basic principles of macrocyclic arenes to design scaffolds capable of tubularly c…

Chemical approaches to regenerative organ repair

3:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Sterling Chemistry Laboratory, New Haven, CT

Please join Yale Chemistry for a Silliman Seminar in organic chemistry with Prof. Michael Bollong, Associate Professor, Department of Chemistry, Early Career Endowed Roon Chair for Cardiovascular Research at Scripps Research. Abstract: Despite perceived organismal complexity, mammals possess relatively poor regenerative potential compared to certain lesser species of Animalia (e.g., amphibians). Indeed, there are many human disease states where an insufficient regenerative response limits organ repair and is determining of disease etiology (e.g., heart failure, T1D, IPF). To overcome these…

Color as a Field of Study: New Perspectives from Asia

8:00 AM – 4:00 PM

New Haven, CTapproximate location

Conference organized by Yingxue Wang, Quincy Ngan, Mimi Yiengpruksawan and the Council on East Asian Studies at Yale University Color is woven into the fabric of human culture, shaping artistic practice, systems of meaning, and engagements with the natural world. Across Asia and beyond, color has historically been a precious resource: extracted from minerals, plants, and animals; synthesized through chemical technologies; and traded through regional and global networks. Applied to nearly every crafted object and built environment, color has mediated visual perception, structured aesthetic h…

Atomic Precision as a Path Towards Precious Metal-Free Catalysts

3:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Sterling Chemistry Laboratory, New Haven, CT

Please join Yale Chemistry for a Silliman Seminar in inorganic chemistry with Prof. Gwendolyn Bailey, Assistant Professor, Department of Chemistry at University of Minnesota - Twin Cities. Summary: The global transition toward a secure energy economy is constrained by our reliance on scarce, precious metals, highlighting an urgent need for the development of catalysts composed of earth-abundant elements. While multinary metal chalcogenides offer a vast, programmable design landscape for replacing these critical materials, their cooperative, multi-center mechanisms remain a "black box" that…

Things to Do is the public events board that comes with Waoo Road Trip: concerts, markets, festivals, workshops, theatre and community events, collected automatically from public venue and organiser calendars so you do not have to check twenty of them yourself. Reading the board needs no account. Anyone with a free Waoo account can submit an event for review, and signed-in visitors can star anything here to keep it, or drop it onto a trip.
