PFAS, Environmental Chemistry, and how You can be a Greener Chemist - a chat with Dr. Shira Joudan
<p>Dr. Shira Joudan is a currently a postdoctoral researcher in environmental chemistry at York University in Toronto. She completed her PhD in the department of chemistry at the University of Toronto in 2020, and in 2023 will start as an assistant professor in the department of chemistry at the University of Alberta in Edmonton. Her research focuses on the fate of organic contaminants in the environment, and how transformation reactions impact how humans and ecosystems are exposed to potentially toxic chemicals. For the past 7 years, a major focus has been PFAS – per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances. Shira is also interested in green chemistry and previously attended the ACS Green Chemistry Summer School. Outside the lab she likes live music, canoeing, and doing fun things with her friends.</p> <p><strong>Episode Links (discussed in podcast)</strong></p> <p>1.)

NOBCChE, Solid State Chem, and Spiderman Shenanigans - a chat with Dr. Isaiah Speight
<p>Dr. Isaiah Speight (he/him) is currently a NIGMS postdoctoral fellow at University of California, Irvine in the lab of Prof. Vy Dong. His postdoctoral work focuses on developing new technologies to enhance peptide synthesis. As a native of the Hampton-Roads area of Virginia, Isaiah earned his B.S. in chemistry in 2016 from Norfolk State University. During this time, he did research with Prof. Olufemi Oyesanya in the area of polymer synthesis, and with Prof. Steven Townsend in advanced carbohydrate synthesis. Isaiah then moved to Nashville, where he completed his Ph.D. in 2021 from Vanderbilt University with Prof. Timothy Hanusa. During his time as a Ph.D. student Isaiah developed new mechanochemical methods for making inorganic and organometallic reagents ranging from calcium complexes and mercury metal organic frameworks to Grignard reagents from fluorinated compounds. In addition to his bench work, Isaiah works very closely with the National Organization for Black Chemists and Chemical Engineers initially serving on the Executive Board as their National Student Representative and currently as their Western Regional Director. In these roles, Isaiah works to continue to create communities for black scientists to thrive in as well as build connections to create new opportunities for these students to be successful in.
