Summer Lab Updates: June 2026

Summer is off to a busy start in the Reinhardt Lab!

  • Clorice, Agnieszka, and Mitch attended the 2026 Penn State Bioinorganic Workshop, where Clorice (supported by Agnieszka) co-taught a 4 hour computational workshop on computational chemistry for bioinorganic systems with Prof. Sayfutyarova from Penn State. Clorice and Elvira overlapped in the Hammes-Schiffer Lab, so it was a great reunion.

  • Marcos Ngo (UG, Class of 2026), has accepted a post-baccaulareate position with Prof. Kern at Scripps. Congratulations Marcos!
  • Justin Barrer and del cruser will be joining us as undergraduate research assistants this summer. Welcome!
  • Clorice’s research and lab was highlighted in a structure article https://www.cell.com/structure/fulltext/S0969-2126(26)00113-9
  • Clorice got a few grants submitted, and one recommended for funding (but stayed tuned for official announcement, never count your chickens before they hatch!)
