What You can Be with a Ph.D. from Yale

I am now a postdoc at the Stanford PULSE Institute, where I use X-ray spectroscopy to study light-induced changes in transition metal complexes. This work has immediate application in light-driven reactions that enable carbon bond-forming catalysis and potential future applications in solar energy harvesting.

In the long term, I plan to continue chemistry research.”

Reagan Hooper, Ph.D., Class of 2024
