Having been bitten by the ultrafast bug, he headed to the University of Toronto to work with Prof. R. J. Dwayne Miller on multidimensional, fifth-order Raman spectroscopy of liquids (Ph.D. 2003).\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"letter-spacing: -.4pt\">Committed to the new field of multidimensional optical spectroscopy, Kevin moved to France, working in the Laboratoire d\u2019Optique et Biosciences, a CNRS lab located at Ecole Polytechnique in Palaiseau. Supported by a Human Frontier Science Fellowship, he joined Drs. Manuel Joffre and Jean-Louis Martin to build a two-dimensional infrared spectrometer to study biomolecules and develop new techniques, such as chirped-pulse up conversion to detect broadband IR pulses.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"letter-spacing: -.4pt\">In 2005, he established his independent research group at the University of Michigan\u2019s Chemistry department in Ann Arbor. At UM, Kevin has developed 2D-IR spectroscopy as a general tool to unravel complex dynamical phenomena in a range of contexts, from biophysics to organometallic catalysis. Some of his group\u2019s current interests include in operando 2D-IR spectroelectrochemistry as well as using ultrafast spectroscopy to understand how strong coupling to optical cavities can alter chemical reactions. In 2024, Kevin and his wife, fellow ultrafast spectroscopist Professor Jennifer Ogilvie, are moving their research groups to the University of Ottawa. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Host:\u00a0Lauren Buchanan<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vanderbilt Institute of Nanoscale Science and Engineering Colloquium Dr.\u00a0Kevin Kubarych Professor of Chemistry and Biophysics University of Michigan Vibrational Polariton Dynamics Probed with Collinear 2D-IR 02.19.25\u00a0 |\u00a0 4:10PM | 134 Featheringill Hall Bio:\u00a0A native of Brooklyn, NY, Kevin Kubarych studied physical chemistry at Brown University (Sc.B., 1996) working the lab of Prof. Peter Weber, doing&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3411,"featured_media":5741,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11,1],"tags":[23,18],"class_list":["post-5737","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-vinse-colloquium","category-news","tag-vinse-colloquium","tag-vinse-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5737","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3411"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5737"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5737\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5743,"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5737\/revisions\/5743"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5741"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5737"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5737"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/my.vanderbilt.edu\/vinsenews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5737"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
