AAAR Early Career Faculty events

AirUCI's AAAR chapter is announcing a series of upcoming seminars from early career faculty members at research universities.  Each speaker will give a research seminar, after which there will be about 20-30 minutes for a discussion about how they managed their career paths.  These events are great opportunities for graduate students and other researchers to learn how to pursue a faculty position at a research university. 
 
Their first seminar will be presented by Professor Rachel O'Brien of William & Mary College on Wednesday, July 22nd at 11am PDT.  Her group's research focuses on using mass spectrometry and spectroscopy techniques to study photobleaching in cloud water, aerosol particle photodegradation, and indoor surface film composition.  More information about her group's research can be found here.  Prof. O'Brien collaborated with the Nizkorodov group during her time as a graduate student at UC Berkeley.   
 
Our second seminar will be Professor Tara Kahan of the University of Saskatchewan on Wednesday, August 5th at 11am PDT.  Her group's research focuses on reactivity of pollutants at ice surfaces, pollutant fates in natural waters, chemistry on urban surfaces, and indoor air chemistry.  More information about her research can be found here.  Prof. Kahan was a post-doc with John Hemminger after graduating from the University of Toronto. 
 
Zoom details will be sent on the Monday before each talk. Contact aaarsc@uci.edu for additional information.
