Feb 14, 2020

A publication by Alex Izydorczak, a graduate of the Department of Chemistry, and Dr. Scott Simpson, assistant professor of chemistry, has been accepted for publication in ChemistrySelect, a journal of ChemPubSoc Europe.

Their publication, titled "Accurate Prediction of Gas Chromatographic Retention Times via Density Functional Theory Calculations: A Case Study Using Brominated Flame Retardants," looks at using computations to study polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), a class of legacy flame retardants.
