This award is sponsored by Mettler Toledo, awarded annually since 1968. This prestigious award recognizes distinguished achievement in the field of thermal analysis, including but not restricted differential thermal methods, thermogravimetry, rheology, and effluent gas analysis.
Brian Grady was announced as the 2025 winner of the North American Thermal Analysis Society Award for Outstanding Achievement (aka "the Mettler”) during the recent annual meeting in Dearborn, MI. This award represents the highest honor bestowed by the Society.
We kick off our Autumn Semester Seminar Series with Professor Steven Crossley @OUCrossley from the University of Oklahoma @OU_CBME!

Yesterday we had a retirement celebration party for our staff member Madena McGinnis, who has dedicated her service to this department for many years as our coordinator for undergraduate studies. Congratulations!
On Monday we celebrated Daniel's @resasco Lifetime Achievement Award during the OU VPRP's @OUResearch annual award ceremony. Introduced by our colleague Lance Lobban & award presented by interim VPRP Carol Silva. Congratulations!
Today we are happy to have Professor Michael Tsapatsis @JHU_ChemBE to give the 49th Annual Harry G Fair Memorial Lecture and excited to learn the progress of ZIF materials in gas separation and microelectronic applications.
Mason Rhue, working with Dr. Grady, just received a poster award from the 40th international conference of the polymer processing society (PPS-40) held in Auckland, New Zealand. Congratulations👍👍👍
This was a great opportunity to share the motivation behind the FASTER project and the future plans and potential impact of this project. https://t.co/m7njEHEgf0
Our latest PhD graduate, Matthew Webb, will join the membrane research team in Air Products, St. Louis (MO). Matt embodies the concept itself of excellence:
Klier, Razavi et al. report that the optimization of Albumin nanosphere synthesis makes glucose viable as an alternative crosslinker and results in colloidally stable particles, despite their surface degradation upon aging. @OU_CBME@OUResearch

Lucas Condes shows us how to make highly selective membranes capable of sorbing significant amounts of condensable gases (and thus exhibiting high permeability) without exhibiting any plasticization up to 50 atm at least.
We are happy to announce a brand-new OU-ND Collaborative Project: Beyond fluorine: molecular-level understanding of the effect of bromination and chlorination on polymer membrane transport property and long-term stability
