Dr. Ben Swarts’ chemistry-driven tuberculosis (TB) research group draws from the fields of synthetic chemistry, biochemistry, and microbiology to develop tools for investigating and targeting the cell envelope of mycobacteria, which include the pathogen that causes TB.

The Swarts group, which is funded by the National Science Foundation and National Institutes of Health, is located in CMU’s new $95 million Biosciences Building and currently consists of Ben, lab technician Anne Poston, 8 undergraduate students, and 5 graduate students.

Summer remains the busiest time of year, when the whole group, joined by additional outreach students from neighboring community colleges, does lab research on a daily basis (and occasionally takes a break to float down the Chippewa River).

From the Department Chair

Welcome to a new year and new decade! We are excited to share with you recent activities and accomplishments of our faculty and students.

Research is the cornerstone of our programs. For over 50 years, every one of our chemistry and biochemistry majors has completed a faculty-mentored, thesis-based capstone research experience (CHM 491). We are proud to be the only one of Michigan’s 15 public institutions with such a requirement for all undergraduates. Students in our MS in Chemistry program have always completed research theses. And in the past decade, we have collaborated with other departments on initiating interdisciplinary PhD programs, including the PhD in Science of Advanced Materials and the MS or PhD in Biochemistry, Cell, and Molecular Biology. Our graduate and undergraduate students conduct cutting-edge research, present their findings at scientific conferences, and publish papers in quality journals.

Our faculty collaborate with students on research with interesting applications such as designing new molecules for drug delivery (Du, Lee, and Sharma), molecular tools for fighting tuberculosis (Swarts), designing new materials for batteries and electronic devices (Fahlman, Caruntu) and for biomedical applications (Li and Mueller), and improving chemistry education (Tomasik, Mueller). You may read about some of these and other faculty-student research stories in the following pages. Chemistry and Biochemistry department faculty were also recognized for their teaching and research. Drs. Gabriel Caruntu and Benjamin Swarts have each received the prestigious National Science Foundation CAREER Award. In addition, Ben Swarts was honored with the Henry Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Award and the CMU Provost’s Award for Outstanding Research and Creative Activity. The College of Science and Engineering has honored several of our faculty in recent years including Brad Fahlman and Janice Tomasik for Outstanding Teaching, Ben Swarts for Outstanding Research, and Dale LeCaptain for Outstanding Professional Service.

This year we redesigned the undergraduate chemistry major to prepare students for 20th century jobs. Concentrations are now offered in materials chemistry, environmental chemistry, chemical technology, and general chemistry. Students will still complete core courses in the classical areas: general, analytical, organic, inorganic, physical and biochemistry while choosing a concentration area for advanced elective courses. Undergraduate research remains the capstone experience for all students majoring in chemistry, biochemistry or chemical education.

The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry offers a variety of scholarships based on need, academic focus, career aspirations, and other specific criteria for students at every level. Approximately $40,000 in total is awarded every year, although amounts of individual scholarships vary. Contributions from alumni and friends are vital to help us sustain and expand our scholarship program.

Looking forward, to keep our alumni and friends informed, we plan to issue the department newsletter on an annual basis. We would like to include your news and stories in the next issue of newsletter. So, please stay in touch by letting us know your recent activities and accomplishments!

Thank you!

Ajit Sharma

As a clinical chemist who has been trained and has worked in various hospitals and medical laboratories and as a current faculty member of the Chemistry and Biochemistry Department, Dr. Sharma has always enjoyed helping students and collaborators to make the challenging but critical connections between chemistry and the medical world. This bridge between chemistry and medicine is very weak as shown by studies revealing the poor performance of medical and other healthcare students and professionals in biochemistry and related chemistry topics such as pharmacology. “Since modern medicine is heading towards molecular medicine, I expect this problem to worsen,” Dr. Sharma said. Already, today, medical errors are the third leading cause of death in the US, after cardiovascular disease and cancer!

To help alleviate this serious problem, Dr. Sharma has recently published an inexpensive self-learning medical biochemistry book and an accompanying question book using Apple’s incredible iBook technology, where one can not only read the book but see videos, learn complex concepts via PowerPoint presentations and answer interactive questions.

Dr. Sharma and his collaborators at CMU Medical School and in the Neuroscience Program have received grants from the American Heart Association and the National Institute of Health. Several biochemistry majors have opportunities to work on this collaborative project and primarily focus on PAMAM dendrimer synthesis, characterization and formulation, cell culture studies, and animal studies. Dr. Sharma’s laboratory is also involved in another project on dendritic antioxidants in collaboration with Dr. Choon Lee, a medicinal chemist in the department. In this project, students are involved in synthesis and characterization (in Lee’s lab) and biochemical studies such as DNA protection and estimation of antioxidant activities (Sharma’s lab) of these novel antioxidants.

With the support from Dr. Sharma’s collaborator at Sparrow Hospital (Lansing), a summer workshop (National STEM training for Naval Sea Cadets) was held on campus during the past few summers. Last summer, about 24 cadets from all over the nation (including Puerto Rico and Hawaii) participated in the week-long workshop. The workshop included training on microscopes, instruments and blood banking in a simulated medical ship laboratory, investigation of microorganisms in the environment, preparing a disaster recovery plan for a hurricane on a coastal naval base, responding to blood banking needs for a simulated multiple trauma situation aboard a Naval hospital ship, visiting a forensic facility (law enforcement crime lab and/or medical examiner’s office), meeting with military medical professionals, touring medical laboratories and participating in evening activities with the concurrent POLA training including team building, swimming, movie liberty and physical training.

Alumni Highlight

Originally from Wayland, MI, Dr. Katie Herbert (formerly Katie Greenman) attended Central Michigan University as a scholarship athlete playing four years on the varsity softball team while majoring in chemistry during her undergraduate studies. She received both her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Chemistry from CMU, studying the phase separation behavior of POSS in polymeric thin films with Prof. Bingbing Li. She went on to attend Case Western Reserve University as a Ph.D. Student in the Department of Macromolecular Science and Engineering in July 2013 and moved with Prof. Rowan in the summer of 2016 to continue her studies at the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago. In 2019, she completed her Ph.D. with a dissertation focused on the targeted design of dynamic and mechanical bonds towards functional, responsive polymeric networks. Dr. Herbert is now a Postdoctoral Associate at the University of Colorado Boulder working with Prof. Tim White to develop biological applications for liquid crystalline elastomers.

Anja Mueller


With organic chemistry in full swing in Dr. Mueller’s class, the course uses active learning now exclusively; working in groups and learning group skills in the process. With the content adjusted and the textbook rewritten, the information is easier to learn and more useful for students going into the medical fields. The students very much enjoy the organic chemistry games for practicing learning concepts. With that practice, students’ grades have gone up considerably. The groups have also come up with their own games that they are using to practice in class.

The interdisciplinary water course ANT/BIO/CHM 250 ”Water – Life, Death and Power”, another fun course taught by Dr. Mueller, present all sorts of problems with providing clean water to all people. The course has also been used to teach problem-solving skills to the student groups. The students had to present a proposal to solve an actual water problem in an interdisciplinary manner. The students worked on great projects ranging from E. coli in the Chippewa River to the Enbridge Line 5 pipeline in Lake Michigan, invasive snake-head fish, and uranium in Navajo region drinking water. They even presented their projects to Michigan’s Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist and MI DEQ Great Lakes Senior Advisor James Clift! They both traveled to CMU specifically to talk to our students. The students presented well, and an excellent discussion ensued about how the State of Michigan can improve access to clean water for everybody.

The Mueller polymer research group has been successful as well. The team was able to publish research results about the removal of heavy metals from water in Water Science and Technology and Polymers journals. Another project on the advances in dry fuel cell membranes for PEM fuel cells was published in the Journal of Polymer Science.

Yanick Wanzi successfully defended his thesis and joined PhD program at Michigan State University. Aaron Argall joined a PhD program at Ohio State University. Shane Mann joined Pittsburgh State University. Sophie Bedford is now at Michigan State University. Cameron Fornwald is in medical school. Several others pursued a career in industry. This year’s ACS SEED high school student, Michael Powers, was a great help in the lab again.

In the year ahead, there will be more excitement to come. Particularly, the department changed the curriculum of the Chemistry major from a good, but standard program, to the only Michigan Chemistry program where the students can already specialize during their undergraduate years! With the program stressing research, all the students will have presented their own research results to the scientific community before they graduate, and some students will have their research published. This will make them competitive not only on the job market but also for entering prestigious research universities for their PhD.

In addition tomaterials and supplies, the grant alsoprovides stipends for undergraduatestudents doing lab work during thesummer, one postdoctoral fellow, aswell as an outreach program involvingarea community colleges.

A recent research paper published byDr. Swarts’ team was highlighted inChemistry world.

...Continued from cover

Over the last 3 years, Dr. Swarts’ team has published 14 research papers, with highlights including the development of 18F-trehalose, a new tool that may enable TB imaging in patients, and the development of a new class of bio-film inhibitors, which increase the effectiveness of existing anti-TB drugs and could help to shorten TB treatment times in the future. This research has led to patent activity and industry connections, including collaboration with medical imaging company SOFIE Biosciences and licensed compounds to Click Chemistry Tools.

The entire group has been highly active in attending and presenting at regional and national conferences, with 2019 highlights including the American Chemical Society Fall National Meeting in San Diego and the North American Mass Spectrometry School in Madison, WI, which respectively featured Best Poster Awards won by undergraduate student Dillon Vannest and graduate student Nicholas Banahene.

Looking to strengthen the group’s TB research, Dr. Swarts went on his first sabbatical in Fall 2019, taking the opportunity to visit collaborators at TB research labs in California, Colorado, and New York. This coincided with the launch of CMU’s new bio-safety level 3 (BSL-3) TB research facility in late 2019, which is a rare research capability that distinguishes CMU from its peer institutions.

Brad Fahlman

Dr. Fahlman has been busy with textbook projects – the sole author of Materials Chemistry and Editor- in-Chief of Chemistry in Context. He is currently leading the efforts toward the 10th edition of Chemistry in Context, which will be released in Jan. 2020.

In collaboration with computational physicist Dr. Veronica Barone (PHY @ CMU), his research interests are focused on the development of new anode materials for metal-ion battery applications. Through funding from the Department of Defense (Ground Vehicle Systems Center, GVSC), Drs. Fahlman and Barone are currently investigating the reversible Li+ and Na+ capacity of doped titania nanoparticles and porous graphitic carbon nitride (g-

C3N4). Three students presented their

work at the Fall National ACS Meeting in San Diego, CA (Aug. 2019).

Gabriel Caruntu



The Nanomaterials group at CMU was very busy last year. Two graduate students, Swati Naik and Tommaso Costanzo, defended their Ph. D. theses in October 2018 and February 2019, respectively, and entered the workforce soon thereafter. Swati is now a Scientist with the Core Research & Development division at the Dow Chemical Company in Midland (MI), whereas Tommaso is a Microscopist at the Institute of Science and Technology in Vienna (Austria). Two other students, Prabodha Mendis and Suporna Paul, graduated with MS degrees and are now pursuing doctoral degrees at Michigan State University and the University of California at Irvine, respectively.

The group has continued to be productive in terms of scientific publications and presentations and outreach activities. Tommaso’s research poster was nominated for the Best Poster Award at the Materials Research Society fall Meeting in Boston in November 2018, whereas Benard’s poster won the Best Poster Award at the Michigan Microscopy and Microanalysis Society annual meeting in October 2018. Dr. GabrielCaruntu has delivered several invited talks in the past year, with one in Thessaloniki (Greece) in July 2019 and one at the Regional ACS Meeting in Saginaw in October 2019. In the summer of 2019, members of Dr. Caruntu’s research group started working on a $2M collaborative research project with the “Stefan Cel Mare” University in Suceava, Romania. This international collaborative project focuses on the design of dielectric thin films for energy storage and flexible electronics. In the fall of 2019 Dr. Gabriel Caruntu joined the Editorial Board of the Royal Society of Chemistry (UK) for a Nanoscience and Nanotechnology book series.

Dale LeCaptain

Dr. LeCaptain in partnership with the ACS Midland Sectioncreated a middle/high schoolplace-based learning chemistryexperience. The project was initially funded by the Dow Chemical Company in Midland to facilitate getting school kids testing the quality of their local watershed while learning a variety of STEM skills. Dr. LeCaptain’s team provided teachers with lesson plans and Environmental Protection Agency-quality water testing kits to use with their students in real-life situations so they can see how their work could make a difference in their own communities.

Data collected through this project will provide information for spotting positive and negative trends about the water quality. Their team has placed more than 50 test kits into area schools and community groups. The team effort is expanding through the entire American Chemical Society’s central region of Michigan, Ohio, West Virginia, and parts of Indiana and Pennsylvania. According to Dr. LeCaptain, the project allows the middle school teachers to expose their students to chemistry without having to have the knowledge themselves. It also was a great learning and teaching opportunity for CMU environmental science students. Each remarked on how much they enjoyed working with the students and being able to use in real-life situations what they’ve learned in their classrooms. (Originally reported by Gary H. Piatek and edited by Hannah Schmidtendorff ).

Dr. LeCaptain, along with his students in Quantitative Analysis (CHM 211Z) also headed to Beaver Island in spring 2019 for field experience emphasizing environmental analytical chemistry. They collaborated with CMU Institute for Great Lakes Research and the Beaver Island Boat Company. Students were having fun in Beaver Island (photo above).

On August 7-10, 2020, Dr. LeCaptain will again partnering with department colleague Dr. Janice Tomasik and Michigan Geographic Alliance’s Gabrielle Likavec to give a 3-day workshop on beautiful Beaver Island. The workshop features hands-on training with water quality measurements for middle and high school teachers. From classroom kits to scientific instrumentation, and in-field experiences.

The students of CMU’s American Chemical Society had an awesome and productive year! Multiple active student members attended and presented research posters at the fall national ACS conference in San Diego California as well as at several other conferences and events around the region. The organization sold chemistry notebooks, goggles, and glasses to students new to chemistry laboratory and study guides for students taking ACS final exams.

The organization also put on a chemistry week focused around the theme of “Marvelous Metals” with numerous demonstrations throughout the week as well as other events. Some of the events included a volunteer program-in-a-box event, green chemistry events, and a wonderful networking and educational event with guest speaker Tom Lane, the 2009 national ACS president.

The organization had a few social events over the course of the year including an outing to Papa’s Pumpkin Patch for the local apple festival. Another event the organization held in the last year was lab tours. Students interested in getting involved with research here on campus were split into groups and were guided through the labs of the Biosciences and the Dow Science buildings. Students were given chances to look firsthand at the tools and instruments used in campus research and were given time to talk to the professors conducting said research.


Stephen Juris

Dr. Juris has formalized his joint appointment with the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry in 2018. Dr. Juris has been a part of the faculty at CMU since 2006 and has been teaching in both the Chemistry and Biochemistry and Biology departments since then. Academically, Dr. Juris continues to teach in the Biochemistry program, including the year-long Biochemistry course for Biochemistry majors and the one-semester Biochemistry course offered to both Chemistry majors and Biology majors. Within Biology, Dr. Juris teaches courses including Immunology, Foundations in Cell Biology, and Biotechnology. Dr. Juris is currently writing a textbook for Immunology for senior-level undergraduate students and entry-level graduate students.

Dr. Juris research continues to focus on the biochemical characterization of the actin-cross-linking domain (ACD) of a toxin produced by the pathogenic organism Vibrio cholerae. Undergraduate and graduate students characterize non-functional dominant-negative mutants that we have isolated in a screen in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to determine amino acids important in the activity. They also work towards identifying the three-dimensional structure of this domain so that the research team might infer key components required for its activity.

Recently, Dr. Juris’ research students have been focusing efforts on the identification of a substrate-binding domain that, on the basis of research hypothesis, is located close to the N-terminus of the protein based on our dominant-negative mutant studies. Furthermore, students have modeled the structure of the ACD domain based on the structure of a similar ACD domain from another toxin. The lab hopes to use these data to further characterize important components involved in the function of this novel domain.

Phil Squattrito

Dr. Squattrito completed his 30th year at CMU in May 2019. In recent years, Dr. Squattrito has been teaching primarily general chemistry (CHM 131 & 132), including to at least a few children of his former students. He also makes the occasional foray into the inorganic area, for example teaching Advanced Inorganic (CHM 531) last spring. He looks forward to getting back into Inorganic Chemistry (CHM 331) at some point to once again give our chemistry majors a tour of the periodic table according to Squattrito.

Applying crystallography to problems of chemical interest continues to be an active area of research for Dr. Squattrito. He has recently collaborated on papers with Drs. Mohanty and Jensen featuring the use of structural information to illuminate the behavior of some organic compounds from their labs. One of these papers was featured on the cover of Acta Crystallographica Section C in 2018. He also continues to study the structures of metal sulfonates, publishing a paper this fall on the topic.

Dr. Squattrito has been an active participant in various aspects of university governance, including serving as chairperson of the Academic Senate for two years in the early 2010s, and as an officer of the CMU Faculty Association over the past ten years.


New curriculum trims the number of required courses, offers more specialty electives

Central Michigan University undergraduate chemistry majors now have four new concentrations and more specialty courses designed to give them added flexibility to tailor their education.

The Curriculum committee, led by Dr. Anja Mueller, revamped the chemistry offerings to meet growing expectations that chemistry undergraduates coming out of college should have strong specialized skills to make an immediate contribution to industry or academia.

The curriculum of the new concentrations is designed to give students a solid chemical science foundation and marketable skills in each specialty area, said Bingbing Li, an associate professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry in the College of Science and Engineering.

The new concentrations are:

• Materials chemistry: For students interested in the development and applications of polymers and nanoscale structures.

• Environmental chemistry: For students who are interested in understanding the impact of chemical substances on the environment.

• Chemical technology: For students who are interested in developing the skills to work in the chemical, pharmaceutical, biotechnological and related industries.

• General chemistry: For students who are interested in maximum flexibility for their program of study.

All chemistry majors, regardless of concentration, start with the same foundational and core courses (analytical, biochemistry, inorganic, organic and physical chemistry) then specialize with advanced courses and electives tailored to the concentration. They also are required to do an extended research project in collaboration with a professor of their choosing.

For detailed information about courses and content, students may contact the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry or their academic advisor.
