Kortney Melancon

Kortney Melancon

Kortney Melancon is a fourth-year graduate student in Dr. Cundari’s research group. Kortney’s current research encompasses computational investigations concerning both inorganic and organic systems. This research covers computational studies on metal-metal interactions and the resulting spectroscopic phenomena in complexes that contain closed-shell Group 11 transition metal cations as well as computational investigations into N-heterocyclic carbenes as recyclable, polymeric catalysts.

Kortney received her B.Sc. in chemistry from Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas in May 2016.
