From Molecules to Materials: Molecular Engineering of Emergent Function in the Solid State

30th Annual Karen E. Wetterhahn Science Symposium at Dartmouth College

Dartmouth Undergraduate Advising and Research is thrilled to present Katherine Mirica, Associate Professor of Chemistry, who will deliver this year's keynote address, "From Molecules to Materials: Molecular Engineering of Emergent Function in the Solid State."

Professor Mirica is a materials chemist who came to Dartmouth in 2015 after competing a postdoctoral fellowship at MIT. She received her BS in chemistry from Boston College and her PhD in chemistry from Harvard University. Her research group applies experimental strategies in materials chemistry to global challenges in healthcare and the environment. They place a particular emphasis on the design and synthesis of responsive materials that are compatible with electronic sensing devices. Among the many awards recognizing her strengths as a scholar, Professor Mirica was given the 2021 Karen E. Wetterhahn Memorial Award for Distinguished Creative or Scholarly Achievement, making her a fitting keynote speaker for the Wetterhahn Science Symposium.

Professor Mirica's keynote address is followed by the announcement of awards given by the Christopher Reed Science Competition, Library Research in the Sciences Prize, WISP Sophomore Scholarships and WISP Research Engagement Award.
