2021 Group lunch
|
With the kayaking plan foiled by poor weather, the group decided to gather outside for a short lunch and cake together. This is the first time we have been together since Christmas 2019. Could you tell that Nathaniel missed us?
|
Today a pit, tomorrow a catastrophe
|
|
Sarah, Emmanual and Yuan are teaching the world about micro-electrochemical methods. Specifically, the Mauzeroll lab's corrosion team is showing what we do and how we do it. It's not everyday we give away our lab's secret sauce!
Watch and learn from their new video made in collaboration with the ECS Montréal Student Chapter. |
D. W. Ambridge Prize
|
Samantha (now a Mauzeroll group alumna) was awarded the prestigious D. W. Ambridge Prize for her excellent academic record and impeccable doctoral thesis. The highly competitive award comes with an engraved plaque.
Good job Sam, keep up the great work! |

ECS Montréal Student Chapter - Chapter of Excellence Award
|
Congratulations to our very own ECS Montréal Student Chapter who were recently awarded the "Chapter of Excellence" award from the ECS. Out of 87 student chapters, only 2 are given this prize every year.
The ECS Montréal Student Chapter was founded by members of the Schougaard group in 2010 and has since expanded considerably. The chapter committee is now composed of 9 members from 5 different research groups and 3 different universities in Montréal. The annual symposiums hosted regularly attract over 130 participants from across Canada and the United-States. During this years first ever virtual symposium, Prof. Clare Grey from the University of Cambridge gave a talk about her research on Li-ion batteries. We additionally had a presentation from 4 students who were all awarded a 50$ Amazon gift card for their participation. At its zenith, over 100 participants were present. |
Congrats Dr. Gateman!
|
Congratulations to Dr. Samantha Gateman for her successful Ph.D defense. The virtual thesis defense was a first in the Mauzeroll group. We couldn't create the traditional blackboard art which is customary when a student graduates, but this will have to do. We wish you the best in your continuation!

Gordon Research Conference 2020
|
Congratulations to Janine and Isabelle for organizing the Gordon Research Conference (GRC) in electrochemistry this year in Ventura, California! This year was both the most attended itiration yet and also the most equitable in terms of male/female attendee ratio.
|
Life after graduation for an electrochemist
|
The Mauzeroll group participated in the mini-symposium hosted by the ECS Montréal Student Chapter detailing the options that electrochemists have after graduation. After seeing 3 short talks from electrochemists who are now in industry/academia, a Q&A session was held with electrochemists in academic, industrial and government positions to get their opinions on anything and everything.
|
Lisa Stephens, Ph.D
Farewell to our modeling champion (also a model student), Dr. Lisa Stephens, Devil's advocate. We ran a quick simulation and determined that there is a 100% chance you will have a sucessful career, wherever you end up. May your future endeavours be blessed with fine meshes and finer colleagues. May your points be spread far and wide.

Dr. Payne does it again
|
Congrats to Nick Payne (aka Payne, Ph.D) for publishing on porous substrate permeability in the journal of analytical chemistry! The Li-ion battery element was a particularly nice touch.

Halloween 2019 - Pumpkin Carving Contest
|
|
This year, the Mauzeroll group decided to honour Nobel laureate John B. Goodenough with a lithium-ion battery pumpkin! The LED lights show the flow of conventional current and the "O's" are made with defunct lithium coin cells.
Thank you to our master pumpkin carver, Nathaniel, for his talented artwork. |
Farewell, Anielli and Waldi!
|
Anielli and Waldimir have completed their 1-year post-doctoral fellowship in the Mauzeroll group and are returning to the motherland, Brazil!
We are all very sad to see them go but are happy to have had their assistance, leadership and friendship for the past year. Obrigado e até breve |
