His doc toral research focused on NMR spectroscopic studies of alkali metal reduce d polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. He then carried out postdoctoral resea rcher in Professor Sir Fraser Stoddart's group at UCLA\, where he focused on the synthesis of switchable and highly-ordered interlocked molecules in the form of bistable [n]rotaxanes. Dr. Aprahamian joined the faculty at D artmouth College in August 2008\, and was promoted to Associate Professor in 2014\, and Full Professor in 2019. His research group focuses on using structurally simple\, modular\, and tunable hydrazone-based building block s in the development of adaptive functional materials\, including switches \, sensors and fluorophores. Dr. Aprahamian is the recipient of the 2016 C ram Pederson Lehn Award in Supramolecular Chemistry\, and is a Humboldt an d Royal Society of Chemistry Fellow.\n DTSTART:20220322T170000Z DTEND:20220322T183000Z LOCATION:Room 10\, Maass Chemistry Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B8\ , 801 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Chemical Society Seminar: Ivan Aprahamian - Hydrazone-Based Switche s and Functional Materials URL:/chemistry/channels/event/chemical-society-seminar -ivan-aprahamian-hydrazone-based-switches-and-functional-materials-333780 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
