Excited to share our latest paper in Small! We explore the use of catechol polymers as binder replacements for PVDF in organic cathodes, and also investigate how the polymer backbone structure influences its binding abilities. https://t.co/yxdJXnp32h

Just out in @ChemMater! We found that sulfonamide-containing materials are promising candidates as binders and that dimensionality is a key parameter for their use in lithium-ion batteries. Check it out here: https://t.co/mLqdznqA95

New paper out in @ACS_AMI! We synthesized a series of viologen polymers and studied them as cathode materials in lithium-ion batteries. We found that the choice of polymer backbone significantly influences the performance and charge storage mechanism https://t.co/h8nInR1xae

In light of the theatrical releases, my reaction started out as Barbie and ended in Oppenheimer 💁‍♀️

The 2023 cohort of the ACS Summer School on Green Chemistry & Sustainable Energy is an amazing, talented, diverse, and enthusiastic group. It's been a fun and educational week and we can't wait to see what they will do next! Learn more about the program: https://t.co/9TeWLDV5hb

Thank you to @christine_m_le and Marc Adler for organizing the Organic Chemistry in 2023 - Showcasing the Diversity of People and Pursuits and for allowing @WIC_Toronto to chair one of the sessions. #CSC2023

Had so much fun at the Women in Chemistry & Friends Dinner tonight with my fellow colleagues from @chemuoft #CSC2023

Interested in learning more about organic batteries? Come check out the talks by Dwight and Alicia this afternoon in the Polymers for Electrochemical Energy Storage/Conversion Symposium (west meeting room 116 & 117, 2-3 pm) 🔋🪫

[Seferos Group @SeferosGroup]

Looking forward to #CSC2023 next week! Come check out the group's talks on polymers for energy storage, degradation, and organic modification!

@chemie_lea @J_A_C_S @angelasmlin @helen_chem Woohoo it’s out! Loving all the figures 😍

[Alicia Battaglia @AliciaB_7]

@abbey_clap @helen_chem @MacroJrnls_ACS Ah I love this!! Looks amazing Abbey

Our first symposium is complete! Now for some highlights of the event: The symposium kicked off with a warm welcome from our wonderful WICTO co-presidents @chemie_lea and @AliciaB_7! Grad student flash talks - thank you to all who presented their amazing research.

[Working towards Inclusivity in Chemistry Toronto @WIC_Toronto]

Our first seminar talk co-hosted with @GreenChemUofT is done - a massive thank you to @ChemAshlee for coming to speak! It was a fantastic talk and an engaging round table discussion afterwards.

[Seferos Group @SeferosGroup]

Just out in @MacroJrnls_ACS! We use post-polymerization modification to synthesize well-defined catechol homopolymers with differing backbone architectures. This protocol is also quantitative in the gel state, allowing us to form insoluble networks. https://t.co/erxJfYIjKB

[Working towards Inclusivity in Chemistry Toronto @WIC_Toronto]

We are excited to announce that our first seminar series speaker of the year (co-hosted with @GreenChemUofT) is @ChemAshlee! Come see her talk in-person on Nov. 17th at 1pm (or email [email protected] for zoom link) and sign up for a roundtable discussion: https://t.co/M2tHeVuZUk

[Working towards Inclusivity in Chemistry Toronto @WIC_Toronto]

Mark your calendars for WICTO's first FREE professional development event on Nov 19th! Look forward to meeting recent chemistry UofT graduate alumni in an interactive Q&A panel regarding their career trajectories. Register before Nov. 5th: https://t.co/2M5dvkXT9O

[Working towards Inclusivity in Chemistry Toronto @WIC_Toronto]

We're excited to announce WICTO Symposium: Connecting through Chemistry! This is our first FREE full-day professional development event on Nov 19th that is open to all graduate students, undergraduate students, post-docs, faculty, and staff across all three UofT campuses.
