The Engle lab is excited to present its very own Vacuum Atmospheres NexGen Inert Atmosphere glove box — under argon atmosphere! With our solvent purification system nearly finished, the lab is prepared to carry out any and all air- and moisture- sensitive reactions with ease.

TSRI teamed up with Jorg Meyer of  JC Meyer Solvent Systems to put together an instructional video about Grubbs-type solvent purification systems: how they work, how to maintain them, and how to refill them.

The group’s pumpkin carving skills were put to the test on Halloween. Candy was eaten, cider was imbibed, and fun times were had by all. Miraculously, Hermione was still white at the end of the night.
