Join the UO Women in Economics Club for vision board building and a chatty check in. Materials will be provided to collage your heart out! All are welcome, regardless of gender or major!
The UO Women in Economics Club (WiE) was established in 2023 to support and meet the unique needs of women and gender-diverse individuals in the male-dominated economics field. WiE strives to build community, empower, and increase participation in economics through academic and social events. The club hosts guest speakers, roundtable discussions, professional development workshops, and more. Students undergraduate through PhD are welcome.
"In a male-dominated field, the Women in Economics Club is the first opportunity I've had to directly collaborate with and support my female peers." -M.S. Economics '24

Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry Physical Chemistry Seminar Series
Professor Shaowei Li, University of California San Diego Hosted by: George Nazin
Title: On-Demand Control of Single-Molecule Chemistry through Vibrational Characterization and Manipulation
Chemical processes hinge on the dynamic rearrangement of nuclei within molecules. Controlling these motions with precision has been a long-standing goal in chemistry. My lab focuses on achieving this by manipulating interactions between individual molecules and their nanoscale environment. We engineer the potential energy surface at this scale to control molecular properties such as structure and reactivity. Using vibrational characterization techniques with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM)—including inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy, action spectroscopy, and our recent advancement in single-molecule infrared absorption spectroscopy—we analyze molecular responses to the variation in the nano-chemical environment by examining their fingerprinting vibrational modes at the sub-molecular scale. By precisely tuning the junction geometry, material, and the interaction between the molecule and other surface entities, we can selectively influence specific bonds, paving the way for bond-selective control in chemistry.
3:00–4:00 p.m.
