Description:About the Seminar:\n\nControl of electronic spin relaxation\, v
 ia synthetic chemistry\, is an important area of research for quantum info
 rmation technology and next-generation medical imaging techniques. In part
 icular\, when considering the electronic relaxation of discrete molecules\
 , the local environment (including nearby spins) plays a significant role 
 in the rate at which spins relax. In this seminar\, I will discuss my ongo
 ing research efforts towards understanding how synthetic chemistry can be 
 leveraged to design more favorable environments for electron spin relaxati
 on.  Towards this goal\, I will show how changing the identity of the met
 al ions in the solid state can produce more favorable relaxation times eve
 n in the presence of unpaired electrons. I will then talk about my recent 
 efforts to design next-generation imaging probes using exchange coupled\, 
 dinuclear metal complexes. 4:00 pm
