Welcome to the Pratt Lab blog! Dr. Kerri Pratt is an assistant professor in the Departments of Chemistry and Earth & Environmental Sciences and faculty associate of the Program in the Environment at the University of Michigan. We study the chemical interactions of atmospheric trace gases, particles, clouds, and snow, with a focus on the Polar Regions and wintertime environments. Our interdisciplinary research has relevance to climate change, air quality, and human health. As an analytical chemistry lab, we primarily apply novel mass spectrometry techniques to our field research. We invite you to follow our adventures in (and outside!) the lab!

Paper published on incorporating snow chemistry research in the intro chem lab classroom!

Abstract ImageCongratulations to Pratt Lab PhD students Nate May and Stephen McNamara, as well as former post-docs Dr. Siyuan Wang and Dr. Katie Kolesar, on their manuscript published in the Journal of Chemical Education! It describes our novel introductory chemistry laboratory course that involves a semester-long authentic research project studying Arctic snow chemistry.
