Cathleen Crudden receives 2015 Killam Research Fellowship

April 16th, 2015

Professor Cathleen Crudden of Queen's University (Canada) and the Institute of Transformative Bio-Molecules (ITbM), Nagoya University (Japan) has been selected as one of the six recipients of the 2015 Killam Research Fellowship, administered by the Canada Council. The Killam Research Fellowships support scholars engaged in ongoing projects of outstanding merit and widespread interest in their fields. Prof. Crudden is supported for her ongoing project, "Organically Modified Metal Surfaces: Biosensing and Beyond".

Prof. Crudden centers on the use of catalysis for organic synthesis and materials chemistry. Her key focus is to use boron chemistry to conduct catalysis in an efficient and green manner. At ITbM, Prof. Crudden is mainly involved in the development of molecules that selectively induce plant growth along with bio-imaging.
