We are very happy to welcome within the Joint Online Colloquium Series with the CataLysis network:
Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering, University of New Mexico
Topic: Single atom catalysis: from an academic curiosity to industrial applications.
Prof. Abhaya K. Datye research group has pioneered the development of electron microscopy tools for the study of catalysts. His current work involves fundamental studies of catalyst sintering, especially the stabilization of isolated single atoms on supports for high temperature catalytic applications such as exhaust catalysis and alkane dehydrogenation. His research has been recognized through numerous awards, including the Robert L. Burwell Lectureship of the North American Catalysis Society (2019), Walter J Weber Distinguished Lectureship from the University of Michigan Chemical Engineering (2019), Eastman Lectureship from the University of South Carolina (2019) the John Matthews Lectureship from the Microscopy Society of South Africa (2012) and the 2008 Award for Excellence from the NSF IUCRC program, In 2016, the ACS publication Chemical & Engineering News included his research on single atom catalysis as one of the top 10 stories for the year.
We cordially invite all members of the CataLysis network to the lecture.
The link to the video conference will be circulated within the CataLysis Network via E-Mail.
