Congratulations @progna_physics on the start of your research laboratory @LoyolaChicago. Excited for you and your new research group. Glad to have been a small part of your scientific journey.
Shoutout to my PhD advisor @plasmon at the @UofIllinois who helped me transform from a physics student into a chemistry researcher. Many attributes that I will be carrying forward as a researcher & mentor, will be influenced by the formative years spent with his group.

Excited for group alumna @progna_physics who starts a tenure-track position and her new research group @LoyolaChicago. Congratulations and looking forward to many exciting things to come from the Banerjee Lab.
I'm excited to start my impendent laboratory as a tenure-track professor at @LoyolaChicago this month! My "PBEnergyLab", will be working on designing batteries to be non-combustible, cost-effective, efficient: and built with elements sustainably sourced within the US.
