It is with great pleasure that the Department of Chemistry announces and congratulates our four outstanding first-year chemistry lab TAs for their exceptional performance throughout the Winter 2023 academic semester. Kelvin Olivares, Karley Zimmer, Matthew Hill and Adam MacKay have gone above and beyond in their roles, demonstrating a strong commitment to supporting student learning and academic success.
On Thursday, March 23rd, ninety Award Recipients, Presenters, Donors, and Guests gathered at the University Club for the 40th Annual Chemistry Undergraduate Awards Night, hosted by the Department of Chemistry. Assistant Professors Rui Huang and Derek O’Flaherty were the Masters of Ceremonies and ensured that the proceedings ran smoothly. Forty-five Chemistry students were recipients of University of Guelph Entrance Scholarships.
The Chemistry Department is pleased to recognize that Professor Michael Denk, who retired Dec. 31, 2022, has been awarded the status of Associate Professor Emeritus.
"This is an honour that acknowledges his consistent and valuable contributions to the University of Guelph and his commitment to maintain close ties with our department and institution."

Congratulations Professor Denk!
ACS journals are soliciting authors who are underrepresented in the chemistry community (most notably those who identify as BIPOC, LGBTQ, first generation, and those with disabilities) to submit their cover art. Each participating journal issue front cover will feature the artist’s artwork, as well as an editorial written by the artist describing their artwork and story. Artists need not be chemists, but the work and editorial should have a connection to the field of chemistry.
The Department of Chemistry has announced the winners of the 2022 Inaugural Martin Henry Bosch Scholarship in Chemistry and the Brock Chittim Graduate Scholarship in Chemistry.
Donors like Dr. Martin Bosch are providing essential support for students to pursue graduate education.
