Cannon lab members Matt Schmidt ’18 and Natalie Dwulet ’17 were featured in a recent article on Oxy’s website highlighting their work in the summer research program. We’re always excited to share our love of o-chem with our friends!

This week was Occidental’s summer research conference. We had a great time sharing our work this summer with our peers and learning about what all the other researchers on campus accomplished!

Members of the Cannon lab attended the 45th National Organic Symposium at UC Davis. Lots of fun and great science in the Central Valley!

Summer research has started. A big group of undergrads pushing back the frontiers of science!

Congratulations to Cannon Lab members of the Occidental College Class of 2017!

Nick, Natalie, and Ed presented posters at the ACS National meeting in San Francisco. It was great to share our work and learn a lot about new chemical advances!

Natalie Dwulet is a recipient of a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship, and Nick Foy and Alex Rand were also awarded honorable mention!

All six of Occidental’s awardees this year were chemistry or biochemistry majors!

Congratulations!

Molly Brown ’18 is one of this year’s Fletcher Jones Science Scholars at Occidental! This prestigious award will support Molly’s research to develop new carbon-carbon bond forming reactions in our lab for the next year, and allow her to present her discoveries at a national conference of her choice. Congrats!

Members of the Cannon Lab presented on their research at this year’s Southern California Conference on Undergraduate Research and UC Riverside yesterday. Students enjoyed talks and poster presentations by their peers at nearby colleges and universities.

This year’s chemistry tea was another fun afternoon of good food and chemistry. Students and faculty mingled to talk about chemistry research while enjoying tea, pie, and of course Prof. Lasater’s tea cookies!
