Department of Chemistry, McGill University Regular Researcher Since 2007, my research group in the Department of Chemistry at McGill University works at the interfaces between the fields of material chemistry, coordination chemistry and organic synthesis. We conduct research in the domains of catalysis using both the heterogeneous and homogeneous approaches and more sustainable nanoparticle synthesis. We have

Department of Chemistry, McGill University Regular Researcher The group works in the design of both electrode and electrolyte materials for advanced batteries with both improved performance and a reduced environmental impact. Key Words : solid-state chemistry, electrochemistry, materials for advanced batteries, high-throughput synthesis, X-ray diffraction Address : Department of Chemistry McGill University 801 Sherbrooke St.

Department of Chemistry, McGill University Regular Researcher Organic molecules play an integral role in human health and well-being. Their production is also intimately linked to the earth’s carbon cycle, and affects many of humanity’s most pressing challenges, including the changing climate. Improving the properties of existing chemicals, while also increasing the sustainability of their production

Chemical Engineering, McGill University Regular Researcher The Catalytic Process Engineering (CPE) laboratory is engaged in the development and understanding of heterogeneous catalyzed processes and reactor engineering concepts dedicated to sustainable energy conversion technologies. For example, we focus on thermo-catalytic and plasma-catalytic conversion of CO2, CH4 and N2 into value-added chemicals. Key Words : heterogeneous catalysis,

Department of Chemistry, McGill University Regular Researcher Our group believes that nature has something to teach humans about how to make better materials in a more sustainable way. Living organisms rapidly fabricate a range of high performance biopolymeric materials from biomolecular building blocks (e.g. proteins) via green bottom-up assembly processes. These materials provide important role

Department of Chemistry, McGill University Regular Researcher Our research group develops novel organocatalysts for a range of transformations, including sigmatropic rearrangements, cycloadditions and biomimetic polyene cyclizations. Key Words : organocatalysis, iminium catalysis, pericyclic reactions, total synthesis Address : Department of Chemistry McGill University 801 Sherbrooke St. West Montréal, Québec H3A 0B8 Contact : jim.gleason@mcgill.ca Website
