There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Summary Sentence: Center for Selective C-H Functionalization is hosting a series of symposia exploring the frontiers of C-H functionalization
Full Summary: Seth Marder, professor in the School of Chemistry and Biochemistry will talk about "Advances, Challenges and Opportunities for Direct C-H Bond Functionalization in Materials Chemistry."
Seth MarderA virtual symposium on C-H functionalization will take place Tuesday, March 28th at 4 PM in Howey (Physics) 081 (please see accompanying flyer). Through Georgia Tech's involvement with the NSF Center for Selective C-H Functionalization (http://www.nsf-cchf.com/), this C-H symposium will be open to all School of Chemistry and Biochemistry professors, staff, and students. This symposium provides an opportunity to discover and discuss topics at the frontier of synthetic chemistry. The speakers include our own Seth Marder, along with Sarah Reisman (CalTech), Erik Sorensen (Princeton), and Peter Zhang (Boston College).
