Stoked to share that Iโll join @MichiganChem this Fall to pursue a PhD in Chemistry. ๐ฅณ Looking forward to working more on bioinorganic chemistry & chemical biology, and living in the bustling university town of Ann Arbor!
Thrilled for what awaits @UMich ๐๐

20 years of the Lehnert Lab!!! ๐
So special celebrating two decades with some of the past and present members who built this lab.
Amazing science, incredible people, and unforgettable memories.
Hereโs to the next 20! ๐ฅ

A potpourri of RIXS with a dash of NRIXS: The 14th International Conference on Inelastic X-ray Scattering (IXS2026) held @argonne was fun!
Nicolai gave a talk on the role of NRVS in deciphering the electronic structure of iron nitrosyls, and @AdityaBasu2001 presented a poster. โ at Lemont, IL

The Lehnert Lab had an exhilarating week in Chicago for #ACSFall2026!๐งชโจ
Nicolai gave a talk at the symposium celebrating Prof. Ed Solomon.
Lizzie, Aditya, Arup, Cybele, Daniel, Lily, Nicole and Summer presented posters.
Aditya also delivered a talk.
And Lily won a poster award! โ at Chicago, IL

We had an amazing time these past couple days attending Ohio Inorganic Weekend at Kent State! Many of us presented posters, and @AdityaBasu2001 gave a fantastic talk which he won best oral presentation for!! Way to go! :)

Our group had a whole lot of fun at MICS hosted by @waynestatechem
@MichaelOLengel presented a talk and rest of us presented our posters! @NabhenduP @AdityaBasu2001 @MichiganChem

Thank you @argonne & @NSF SEES for organizing this gem of a workshop!
Incredibly grateful to have learned about Synchrotron Mรถssbauer & NRIXS from Dr. Sturhahn, Dr. Alp, Dr. Toellner & Dr. Zhao.
The passion of my fellow Fe chemists & earth scientists have truly inspired me. โ at Lemont, IL
Nicole and @AdityaBasu2001 had a good time at The 2025 APS/SEES CONUSS/PHOENIX School at Argonne National laboratory!

Wrote the final of the echem class I took this sem: prolly the last course I would ever take.
From Laplace transforms to Fickโs laws; from double layer capacitance to Fermi level; the learning curve was steep but sweet.
Started out UG with quantum chem, & now ending with echem ๐ฅน โ at Ann Arbor, MI

First poster session of grad school: DONE! โ
Loved all the connections & conversations at the Ohio Inorganic Weekend 2024 @waynestatechem.
The talk sessions featured cool single mol photocat, organocopper(III), 2ยฐ coord sphere mimics, NH3 activation, Ln separation & orgmet SMM. โ at Wayne State, Detroit
