Lars Grabow receives NSF CAREER Award 2015
What do Lars Grabow and methane have in common? They are both very happy! 🙂 And Lars Grabow will be even happier, when he finally succeeds in making methane less happy, by selectively activating only its first C-H bond without overoxidizing it to CO2 and H2O. Read the full story in the UH Cullen College of

Our results on the effect of water during CO oxidation on gold are published in Science!
Graduate student Hieu Doan developed a comprehensive computational model for Au/TiO2 catalysts, which suggest a novel mechanism for CO oxidation in the presence of water. The work is a collaboration with Profs. Bert Chandler and Chris Pursell at Trinity University San Antonio. Gregory Mullen and Buddie Mullins have published a Perspective on the article, and
