June 2014 Dear Conference Attendees and Guests, Welcome to the University of Montana! There are few universities in the world that combine the quality of people, breadth of programming, tremendous stakeholder support, and stunning beauty of this University. It is a privilege to serve as its President. Nestled in the heart of western Montana’s stunning natural landscape, the University of Montana is a place where top-tier students, educators and researchers from across the country and around the globe come and thrive. The University draws a diverse population to Missoula and helps cultivate an educated, engaged and vibrant community. Roughly 15,000 students attend UM and Missoula College, where they receive a world-class education in a broad range of subjects that include the trades, liberal arts, graduate and postdoctoral study and professional training. The main campus spans 56 acres at the base of Mount Sentinel along the Clark Fork River and includes the park-like Oval at the center of campus, more than 60 architecturally unique buildings and a 25,200-seat football stadium. Our 180-acre South Campus offers student housing, a golf course, soccer fields and an outdoor track facility. Missoula College occupies two sites in central and west Missoula. Every day, I see students who discover something new about the world around them, faculty members who dedicate themselves to the disciplines they love and to their students, staff members and leaders who work tirelessly to serve the University, friends and alumni who give generously to support the next generation of students, and community members who take part in the excitement of the academic, cultural, and athletic events. As President of the University of Montana, I am pleased to welcome you to our University for the 69th Northwest Regional Meeting of the American Chemical Society. I hope that while you are here you will be able to enjoy some of the unique qualities our university and the town of Missoula have to offer. Best wishes towards a productive, rewarding and enjoyable conference. Sincerely, Royce C. Engstrom President University of Montana RCE/rp Englet907

Northwest Regional Meeting of the American Chemical Society June 22-25, 2014 University of Montana Campus Missoula MT
Welcome to Missoula and thank you for joining us at NORM 2014! On behalf of the Montana Local Section of the American Society, I would like to welcome you to the 69th Northwest Regional Meeting (NORM 2014) of the American Chemical Society on the University of Montana campus. We have a variety of scientific programming and social/networking events. NORM 2014 will feature symposia, general, and poster sessions in analytical, organic, physical, and inorganic chemistry, biochemistry, and chemical education. The "Small Forces, Mountainous Outcomes" symposium, supported by the ACS Division of Organic Chemistry, will feature plenary lecturer Julius Rebek, Jr., of Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla. Inorganic chemistry symposia will focus on "Nanomaterials" and "Bioinorganic Chemistry." Biochemistry symposia include "Bringing the Protein Structure Initiative to Your Laboratory" and "Protein Dynamics," with keynote speakers Valerie Daggett from University of Washington and Daniel Raleigh from Stony Brook University. The physical chemistry symposium will emphasize applications of fluorescence spectroscopy, with Lenny Brand from Johns Hopkins University as a speaker. The "Translating Chemistry into Medicines" symposium, supported by the ACS Division of Medicinal Chemistry, will feature Bruce and Cyndie Maryanoff, ACS fellows and longtime associates with Johnson & Johnson. In addition to the extensive educational opportunities, NORM 2014 will include a graduate school recruiting lunch for undergraduate students with representatives from regional chemistry graduate schools, and an undergrad breakfast featuring a panel of notable chemists. The meeting also features an interactive poster session and the “Finding Your Pathway” workshop presented by ACS Career Services. There will be a Tuesday evening Awards Reception honoring the recipients of the ACS Division of Chemical Education Glenn & Jane Crosby Northwest Region Award for Excellence in High School Teaching, the E. Ann Nalley Award for Volunteer Service to the ACS; and the Stanley C. Israel Award for Advancing Diversity in the Chemical Sciences. Attendees can taste regional beer while they tour the Big Sky Brewery or spend an evening at Ogren Park Allegiance Field watching a minor league baseball game between the Missoula Osprey and the Helena Brewers. Come enjoy some great science and the long summer nights in Missoula at NORM 2014!

June 22, 2014 Dear ACS regional meeting attendees: It is a pleasure to welcome you to this year’s Northwest Regional meeting. The Northwest Region continues its tradition of excellence in sponsoring these meetings each June. While over the years the meetings have been held in a variety of locations, the quality of research and the collegiality of the participants has been a unifying feature. Past meetings have provided unsurpassed opportunities for interaction with regional colleagues, exchange of ideas, and enhanced networking for chemists living and working in the region. This year’s meeting promises to continue in that tradition. As you can see from the technical program, much work and effort has gone into making this meeting a success. From the Local Organizing Committee, to the Region Board, many hours have gone into ensuring that your experience will be both enjoyable and rewarding. Of course the meeting could not happen without your participation. On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Northwest Region I wish to thank you for your attendance and extend a special thanks to those participants that have contributed oral or poster presentations. We are excited once again to celebrate the world-class chemistry going on in the Northwest Region and welcome you to NORM 2014. Sincerely,
Matt A. Peterson President, Northwest Region Board of Directors

Workshops at NORM 2014
Tuesday, June 24 – UC Room 332
8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. ACS Career Workshop: Finding Your Pathway
Learn about the four main career pathways available to chemical professionals: higher education,
industry, government, and entrepreneurial careers and why each one may or may not be the right
choice for you. This workshop is not only ideal for graduate students and recent grads, but also
experienced professionals who are considering a career change. In addition to learning about
which types of careers are available in each pathway, you'll also learn about the job market and
hiring trends to help you make your choice. The workshop allows time for you to inventory your
own values, interests, background, strengths and weaknesses so that you can select which career
pathway you'd like to explore in detail. Complimentary to pre-registered attendees.
1:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. ACS Career Workshop: Résumé Reviews
ACS career consultant, Jeff Moore will also be available to provide one-on-one résumé reviews
and career assistance. Appointments are 30-minutes in duration. Please bring a copy of your
résumé with you to your session. Sign up will be available at the ACS Registration desk in the
foyer. Complimentary to pre-registered attendees.
