Chris (a.k.a. "Manis") is a graduate student in the Cummins group. He has carried out studies on nitrogen transfer to organic molecules, highlighted by an organic nitrile synthesis using a tungsten nitride complex. Also, Chris has investigated unusually hindered octahedral tris-anilide complexes of tungsten.


Presently, Chris is investigating new multidentate enamide ligand architectures for applications in renewable energy projects including CO2 reduction.


Chris was an undergraduate at the University of Chicago, where he carried out research in the Hillhouse group. He has worked at QD Vision, and he loves to fish.
