The Wong Lab

Congrats to Rima on being awarded the P-Chem Undergraduate Fellowship! Rima will be working in the lab this summer to measure and control the deposition of organic thin films. Great job, Rima!

The lab has been awarded some new funding from the American Chemical Society’s Petroleum Research Fund for our research on the aggregation of large aromatic molecules. These molecules form aggregates that are similar to the asphaltene aggregates in heavy crude oils that clog and foul pipelines. Particular congrats to Morgan who contributed some key preliminary results to our proposal. Thanks, ACS!

Congrats to Madi who won a travel award from the Society for Advancement of Chicanos/Hispanics and Native Americans in Science to attend their annual SACNAS conference in San Antonio this fall. Well deserved! Congrats, Madi!

Kelly and Madi’s paper demonstrating single-shot spectroscopy in an organic film has been published in MRS Advances! Great job!

Madi has been awarded a CURE Undergraduate Summer Research Fellowship. This award will allow Madi to continue her research over the summer. Congrats!

We’re happy to have the opportunity to work with Evan and Brian this quarter, on a nanocrystal synthesis project and a Monte Carlo simulation project, respectively. Welcome to the lab!

Michael is now officially a PhD candidate. Great job, Michael!

Congrats to Morgan on presenting her exciting new simulation results at the 77th annual Oregon Academy of Science meeting, this year held at George Fox University. Great job, Morgan!

The lab has been awarded an NSF CAREER Award to continue our in situ studies on molecular aggregation!

Congrats to Madi on her “Best Content” award at the Northwest Regional APS Conference for Undergraduate Women in Physics! Well deserved!
