 \n\nMaking\, Breaking\, and Replicating Lipid Membranes in Synthetic Cell
 s\n\nLipid membranes in cells are fluid structures that undergo constant 
 synthesis\, remodeling\, fission\, and fusion. The dynamic nature of lipi
 d membranes enables their use as adaptive compartments\, making them indi
 spensable for all life on Earth. Efforts to create life-like artificial c
 ells will likely involve mimicking the structure and function of lipid me
 mbranes to recapitulate fundamental cellular processes such as growth\, t
 ransport\, and signal transduction. As such\, there is considerable inter
 est in chemistry that mimics the functional properties of membranes\, wit
 h the express intent of recapitulating cellular phenomena while also prov
 iding clues to how life might have originated. I will present recent effo
 rts from our lab to mimic some of the remarkable dynamic properties of li
 ving membranes. Leveraging the ability of small amphiphilic molecules to 
 react with one another rapidly and selectively in aqueous environments\, 
 our laboratory has developed methods for the abiotic synthesis of membran
 e-forming lipids from basic starting materials. These reactions occur spo
 ntaneously in water\, driving lipid self-assembly and the formation of ce
 ll-like membranes. While initial investigations from our laboratory prima
 rily yielded non-natural lipid analogs\, our recent efforts have shifted 
 towards the development of methodologies for synthesizing membranes compo
 sed of lipids identical to those naturally occurring in biological system
 s. I will also discuss work aiming to recapitulate lipid metabolic proces
 ses\, but in the absence of any protein enzymes. Finally\, I will introdu
 ce recent efforts to develop primitive lipid replicators that can drive p
 rotocell reproduction.\n\n\nTo learn more about Professor Neal Devaraj (U

DESCRIPTION:The Department of Chemistry is excited to host Professor Sijia
  Dong (Northeastern University) on Tuesday\, October 28\, 2025 for a depa
 rtmental seminar. \n\nPhotoenzymes are emerging protein-based photocataly
 sts that are repurposed from natural enzymes for non-natural reactions di
 fficult for small-molecule catalysts. They exhibit extraordinary selectiv
 ity\, scalability\, and tunability\, and offer a promising new toolbox fo
 r solar to chemical energy conversion and chemical synthesis. However\, t
 he understanding and design of photoenzymes pose several challenges. Firs
 t\, accurate first-principles simulations of the electronic structure of 
 macromolecules are usually computationally expensive\, especially those t
 hat involve strong electron correlation. In this talk\, I will discuss ou
 r computational strategies\, including data-driven methods and quantum co
 mputing\, particularly quantum annealing\, to tackle this challenge. Seco
 nd\, existing enzyme design strategies do not consider electronic excited
  states\, and photoenzyme engineering has mainly relied on directed evolu
 tion. I will discuss our work on physics-informed computational photoenzy
 me design\, where we combine physics-based simulations and data-driven me
 thods to demonstrate that microenvironment tuning is a promising design s
 trategy for photoenzymes and other macromolecular photocatalysts. \n\nTo

DESCRIPTION:The Department of Chemistry is excited to host Professor Chris
 topher Newton (University of Georgia) on Tuesday\, November 4\, 2025 for 
 a departmental seminar. \n\nDesign and Application of New Pericyclic Stra
 tegies \nThe overarching theme of our research program concerns the devel
 opment of new and general pericyclic strategies that enable e8icient acce
 ss to complex cyclic frameworks of biological importance. A hallmark of o
 ur approach is the design of atypical cycloaddition reaction partners tha
 t are at a high oxidation level (i.e.\, large degree of heteroatom incorp
 oration and/or unsaturation) in order to confer unique reactivity\, while
  also minimizing the need for redox manipulations post cycloaddition. A s
 ignificant challenge within this area is the development of methods that 
 remain operationally friendly\, for highly unsaturated heteroatom-rich mo
 lecules often exhibit challenging stability profiles. Generally speaking\
 , our approaches leverage fundamental structure and reactivity studies to
  inform the optimization of our proposed reaction partners in order to ga
 in kinetic stability without sacrificing desired reactivity. Once we have
  developed a new methodology\, our focus pivots toward applications in ta
 rget-oriented synthesis\, typically merging our abiotic pericyclic method
 ologies with bioinspired cascades.\n\nTo learn more about Prof. Christoph

DESCRIPTION:The Department of Chemistry is excited to host Professor Conno
 r Bischak University of Utah on Thursday November 6\, 2025\, for a depart
 mental seminar. \n\nStatic semiconductors\, like silicon\, powered the fi
 rst century of semiconductor technology\, but emerging frontiers now dema
 nd dynamic\, adaptable semiconductors. For example\, bioelectronics\, neu
 romorphic computing\, and reconfigurable photonics require semiconductors
  that adapt to their environment or change their optical properties on de
 mand. In this talk\, I will show how our group probes and then controls s
 tructural dynamics in two families of emerging semiconductor materials\, 
 conjugated polymer mixed conductors and hybrid metal halides. First\, I w
 ill show how tuning polymer morphology and ion chemistry dictates how ion
 ic and electronic charge carriers move through conjugated polymer mixed c
 onductors using nanoscale imaging\, in situ spectroscopies\, and high-thr
 oughput robotic platforms driven by machine learning. In the second half\
 , I will discuss how we control solid-solid phase transitions in two-dime
 nsional metal halide perovskites and use them to dynamically modulate the
  chiroptical properties of these materials. Together\, these studies illu
 strate how careful control of structural dynamics unlocks new design prin
 ciples and device opportunities.\n\nTo learn more about Prof.  research\,

DESCRIPTION:The Department of Chemistry is will be hosting Professor Sharo
 n Hammes-Schiffer (Princeton University) for a seminar\, "Nuclear-Electro
 nic Orbital Approach for Quantum Chemistry and Dynamics" on Tuesday\, Apr
 il 21 at 11.45am in French Science 2237. \n\nThe nuclear-electronic orbit
 al (NEO) approach directly incorporates nuclear quantum effects and non-B
 orn-Oppenheimer effects into quantum chemistry calculations and molecular
  dynamics simulations. This approach treats specified nuclei\, typically 
 protons\, quantum mechanically on the same level as the electrons with mu
 lticomponent density functional theory (DFT) or wavefunction methods\, su
 ch as coupled-cluster and multireference approaches. Nuclear delocalizati
 on and anharmonic zero-point energy are inherently included in energy cal
 culations\, geometry optimizations\, reaction paths\, and dynamics. The N
 EO approach also provides accurate descriptions of excited electronic\, v
 ibrational\, and vibronic states\, as well as nuclear tunneling and nonad
 iabatic dynamics. The real-time NEO methods enable nonequilibrium nuclear
 -electronic quantum dynamics simulations beyond the Born-Oppenheimer appr
 oximation for investigating thermal and photoexcited chemical reactions. 
 NEO calculations can be performed in implicit or explicit solvent\, prote
 ins\, or periodic solids. This talk will present foundational and recentl
 y developed NEO methods as well as chemical applications. The application
 s will include pKa calculations\, quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical
  free energy simulations of enzyme reactions\, photoinduced proton transf
 er\, high-pressure superconducting hydrides and ice\, and polaritonic and
  plasmonic chemistry.\n\nWe look forward to hosting Prof. Hammes-Schiffer
 . Learn more about the Hammes-Schiffer lab and their work on the developm
 ent and application of theoretical and computational methods to understan
 d the fundamental physical principles underlying chemical processes here:
