Dr. Russell’s graduate research focused onasymmetric catalysis, small molecule synthesis, and method development for catalytic, enantioselective processes. Dr. Russell completed a postdoctoral appointment at the University of Maryland where he also worked as a graduate recruiter to help increase the presence of minorities in the Chemistry department. His research at Maryland included synthesis and implementation of diazocarbonyl compounds for novel transformations. His current research is very diverse and includes synthesis and characterization of chalcones as chemotherapeutic molecules, conversion of agricultural waste into biofuels, use of functionalized nanoparticles as alternative therapies to cancer treatment and the investigation of transition metal catalysis of C-H activation from natural Representative Publications:

Biographical Sketch: Professor Marilyn Tourné (born Marilyn Prieto) received her Ph.D. from the University of Florida, Gainesville. Her current research focuses on explosive analysis using high-field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) and mass spectrometry (MS) which provides two separate orthogonal detection methods in a single trace explosives detector. Dr. Tourné is also interested in the development of novel analytical platforms to increase sensitivity, selectivity, and specificity of detection and deterministic identification of target analytes.

Department of English Tuskegee University Biographical Sketch: Professor Adaku T. Ankumah received her PhD from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She has examined gender and politics in the works of African women authors like Mariama Bâ, Ama Ata Aidoo and Tsitsi Dangarembga. Together with her collaborators, they are currently working on examining memory in literature and its role in helping those dealing with painful, fragmented pasts forge a wholesome future.
