Excited to welcome Olufemi, the newest #PhD student in our group!

[Dr. Keisha B. Walters @keishabwalters]

A warm welcome to the newest PhD student in my research group, @Walters_PolyNEL. Olufemi Ogunjimi worked as a process engineer in industry for several years and completed his MS from Lagos State University before coming to @CHEG_UARK to earn a #PhD in #chemicalengineering.

Welcoming post-doctoral fellow, Fatema Tarannum, to our research group!

[Dr. Keisha B. Walters @keishabwalters]

Join me in welcoming Fatema Tarannum as a Post Doctoral Fellow in the @Walters_PolyNEL Polymer and Nanoengineering Lab and the @CHEG_UARK Department. She is the newest #research group member and we look forward to her impact on our #polymer and #nanomaterials projects.

[Walters Group_PolyNEL (Polymer & Nano Engr Lab) @Walters_PolyNEL]

All of Kayla's presentations at #AIChE2022 were well-received. She is headed toward the finish line, wrapping up her publications and dissertation.

[Dr. Keisha B. Walters @keishabwalters]

PhD Candidate, @KaylaAFoley1, gave two great presentations at #AIChE2022 on her poly(ionic liquid) research. Kudos to Kayla for providing #Leadership to our @Walters_PolyNEL research group.

[Walters Group_PolyNEL (Polymer & Nano Engr Lab) @Walters_PolyNEL]

Congrats, Kayla!

Congrats to Collin Britten! He is a recent @OU_CBME #PhD graduate from my @Walters_PolyNEL research group. Collin has joined @WyattTechnology as an Associate Field Application Scientist, and he is exploring his new environs of #Philadelphia, PA.

[Walters Group_PolyNEL (Polymer & Nano Engr Lab) @Walters_PolyNEL]

@OU_CBME @dvpapava Congrats!

[Walters Group_PolyNEL (Polymer & Nano Engr Lab) @Walters_PolyNEL]

Welcome David Chem, a new PhD student, to the Walters research group!

[Dr. Keisha B. Walters @keishabwalters]

Despite being spilt between 2 universities and in a Covid surge, my research group was able to all meet together today. We had some very productive discussions, and it brightened my day! @CHEG_UARK @OU_CBME #Polymer and #Nano #Engineering #Lab

[Walters Group_PolyNEL (Polymer & Nano Engr Lab) @Walters_PolyNEL]

New publication from my research group (w.recent PhD graduate, Collin Britten, and UG researcher, Kristen Lason) presents a new aqueous method for the rapid and facile synthesis of tertiary amine-pendant polymers with narrow molecular weight distributions.

@keishabwalters @DrVasquez_ChE Well, congrats anyways! Contrats?? Long week

[Prof Nisreen Alwan 🌻 @Dr2NisreenAlwan]

Myth: women ‘choose’ not to put themselves forward for jobs, promotions & upward opportunities. It’s a confidence problem.

Truth: the system actively discourages & obstructs women from doing so. It’s a stereotype, structure & a status quo problem.

Please do not invite me to do service that is not relevant to my research or my interests just because you want more women. Same goes for others from any underrepresented or historically marginalized group. #InternationalDayOfWomenInScience #WomenInSTEM
