Chemistry Students' Union of the University of Toronto

On Wednesday the 20th January between 1 and 2 pm Prof. S. O. Kelly will be giving an academic seminar on her research into the nanostructuring of electrode surfaces in developing sensitive biosensors to detect and predict the progression of cancer and other disease states. Research has gone into encompassing nanomaterials-based electrodes into a chip platform, a more robust and practical analytical format.

It will be located in Davenport East (3rd floor Lash Miller – directly below library). CSU is providing pop and a good selection of sandwiches.

This year, the McMaster Undergraduate Society for the Chemical Sciences (MUSCS) are hosting the 10th annual Southern Ontario Graduate Information Session at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario. At this session, representatives of 17 universities from across Canada will be giving presentations regarding their graduate programs in chemistry or related disciplines. This is an excellent opportunity for undergraduate chemistry students interested in pursuing graduate opportunities to examine the possibilities available throughout Canada. The session is completely free of charge and will include a complementary lunch. It will occur on Saturday the 30th of January between 11 am and 4 pm. Also, if students register in advance, MUSCS will subsidise travel costs to and from the event. You can register and get more information by e-mailing their VP Jeffrey Price at pricej4 [at] mcmaster.ca.
