Virtual Visit 2020 – MIT Department of Chemistry

A note from the Department Head

Welcome all! We are so grateful to all of you for your flexibility and understanding as we work to put together a Virtual Visit of the MIT Chemistry experience in lieu of our usual Visiting Weekend. Below you will find a comprehensive list of live Zoom events, videos, and other links that will hopefully help to give you an idea of our department. Please feel free to reach out with any questions that may arise, and we hope to see you in Cambridge this fall!

Best Regards,

Troy Van Voorhis

Experience MIT Chemistry

Videos

As part of your Virtual Visit, members of the Department of Chemistry staff, faculty, and student groups have put together a series of informational videos for you to enjoy:

Visit this link to tour the MIT-Harvard Center for Magnetic Resonance with Professor Bob Griffin.

For a welcome tour with Department Head Troy Van Voorhis, a tour of Professor Gabriela Schlau-Cohen’s laboratory, information from Assistant Professors Dan Suess and Xiao Wang, and to meet members of the Chemistry Alliance for Diversity and Inclusion, visit the Chemistry Virtual Visit Video Series.

To access the video series, you will need to create a Touchstone collaboration account. Information on how to do that can be found here.
