From Oct. 13-15, Prof. Kerri Pratt attended the "Workshop on Chemical Atmosphere-Snow-Sea Ice Interactions: taking the next big step in the field, lab & modelling" at the University of Cambridge in Cambridge, England!

Congratulations to Matt!

Congratulations to Chemistry PhD student Matt Gunsch for being awarded an University of Michigan Rackham Conference Travel Grant ($800) to attend the 33rd Annual American Association for Aerosol Research (AAAR) Conference in Orlando, FL later this month!  Matt will present a poster on his research on the chemical composition of individual particles in northern Michigan from fieldwork at the University of Michigan Biological Station this past summer.

Prof. Pratt gives talk at International Global Atmospheric Chemistry Conference in Brazil!

Prof. Pratt gave a talk at the 13th Quadrennial iCACGP (International Commission on Atmospheric Chemistry and Global Pollution) Symposium and 13th International Global Atmospheric Chemistry Conference in Natal, Brazil today.  Prof. Pratt was also selected to participate in the Young Scientists Program at the conference this week.

Congrats to Nate!

Congratulations to second-year PhD student Nate May for receiving a Graduate Student Research Grant from the University of Michigan Rackham Graduate School!

Welcome Natalie, Olivia, & Stephen!
