Measuring and Decoding Spectra to Study Ultrafast Chemical Processes (My Adventures in Optimizing the Signal-to-Noise Ratio in the Laboratory and in Life)

The Diversity, Inclusion and Respect Committee of the ACS Puget Sound Section presents

Professor Munira Khalil
Leon C. Johnson Professor of Chemistry and
Department Chair, University of Washington

Professor Munira Khalil is a physical chemist whose research focuses on developing a microscopic understanding of how coupled electronic, vibrational, and solvent degrees of freedom optimize charge and energy transfer pathways in molecular photochemistry.

Munira received a B.A. in Chemistry and English from Colgate University before pursuing a Ph.D. at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. She completed postdoctoral research as a Miller Research Fellow at the University of California, Berkeley and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory before joining the University of Washington in September 2007.

Munira’s research has been recognized by the Dreyfus New Faculty Award (2007), Packard Fellowship in Science and Engineering (2008), CAREER Award from the National Science Foundation (2009), Sloan Research Fellowship (2012), Camille-Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award (2013) and the Journal of Physical Chemistry Lectureship (2014). She was named a Kavli Frontiers of Science Fellow in 2011 and the Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2017.
