We are proud to announce that our very own Olivia Brown was featured in an ODU article, where they acknowledged her hard work in achieving the ACS SURF fellowship! Check it out here!

We would like to welcome Kyle Kellar to the Lambert Group! Kyle obtained his B.S. in Chemistry from Campbell University in May 2025 and joined our group shortly thereafter. Kyle will be trying to obtain his PhD in chemistry. He will be working on total synthesis projects in our lab.

The Lambert Group is proud to participate in the Project SEED program, which allows high school students to obtain useful research experience. We would like to warmly welcome Micah and Renee, two senior high school students! They will be conducting research in the Lambert Lab for the summer.

The Lambert Group was well represented at the Virginia Academy of Science Annual Meeting at UVA, where Shayne, Aiden, Olivia, and Gloria all gave presentations!

Congratulations to Shannon, who just published her paper on The Importance of Atomic Charges for Predicting Site-Selective Ir-, Ru-, and Rh-Catalyzed C–H Borylations in the Journal of Organic Chemistry!

Congratulations to Olivia Brown, who was awarded the ACS Division of Organic Chemistry Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship Award! Olivia was one of sixteen students to achieve this award! Great job Olivia!

We have three new undergrads joining our lab this semester, welcome Gloria, Aiden and Sara!

Congratulations to two of our undergrads, Olivia and Jon, for winning the best student poster award at the local Hampton Roads ACS Research Symposium! We are all very proud of your hard work!

We’re all so excited to receive the NASA – Virginia Space Grant Consortium 2025 New Investigator award! This grant will fund our exciting summer research program synthesizing models for lignin oxidation.
