Graduate students Anoklase Ayitou and Barry Pemberton were selected for the American Chemical Society Summer School on Green Chemistry and Sustainable Energy at McGill University in Montreal, Canada, in June.

Ayitou and Pemberton work with Sivaguru Jayaraman, associate professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. “Both of them are working in the area of green chemistry, and this summer school initiative aims to nurture future leaders in the field of green chemistry,” Jayaraman said. The summer program is sponsored by the American Chemical Society Petroleum Research Fund.
