Faculty of Sciences- Chemistry
University of Prince Edward Island
Canada
Biography
She did her Phd from Alberta. She have served at post doctoral positions in University of Alberta from 1994 to 1995 & in University of Windsor from 1995 to 1997. Currently she is working in UPEI, Canada at the post of Associate Professor.
Research Interest
Dr. Nola Etkin researches the preparation of new types of metal-containing compounds that can be used as catalysts for industrial processes, such as olefin polymerization—the making of plastics. Her research targets specialty application plastics, including those that are strong or have high melting points. She is also interested in the synthesis of medicinally important compounds
