What can I expect in the Stradiotto Group? Researchers
in the Stradiotto group gain experience in designing and preparing new organometallic complexes, as well as in studying the stoichiometric and catalytic reactivity properties of
these new species; such experiments commonly involve the use of modern inert
atmosphere techniques (glove box, Schlenk).
Researchers in my group also become proficient in the use of modern
structural elucidation methods, utilizing either instrumentation available
within the Department of Chemistry at
Dalhousie University (e.g. GC-MS, IR, Raman, solution 500 MHz NMR, etc.) or other modern materials
characterization facilities made available through the Institute for Research in Materials at
Dalhousie University (>$10M facilities installation). Work in the
Stradiotto group is a truly collaborative effort at all levels, from the
advancement of projects to the preparation of manuscripts for publication in
top-ranked journals. The group fosters a research environment in which
students can develop and actualize their own ideas, within the context of the
research directives of the group. Presenting research at conferences and
other scientific meetings is also an important facet of professional
development, and students in the Stradiotto group are encouraged to do so.
Though our research motivation originates in academic exploration, we have
attracted the interest of industrial partners; in this regard, we
subsequently explore ways in which to commercialize our research findings, in
collaboration with the Dalhousie University Industry Liaison and Innovation
Office. Personnel trained in the Stradiotto research group are equipped with
highly marketable research and other professional skills that enable them to
take up high-profile positions in both academic and industrial settings. How do I get in touch with the Stradiotto Group? You
are encouraged to contact any one of the current members of the group and ask
questions about life in the Stradiotto group; a complete list of the current group
members may be found by clicking here. Additional contact
information for Professor Stradiotto can be found returning to Stradiotto Group Home. What is Department of
Chemistry was initiated with the appointment of George Lawson in
