Congrats Jaylen!

[Derek Patton @dereklpatton]

Proud of Jaylen Davis (first year graduate student in the @PattonGroupUSM) and the hard work he put into his submission for the @NSFGRFP. Congrats @davis_amon21 on your recognition with Honorable Mention!! @USM_Polymers @SouthernMiss

Check out @DahliaAmato's work on printing porous materials with photopolymerization in collab with U of Twente's Claas Willem Visser! Thanks to @Harvard's Jennifer Lewis for hosting Dahlia's academic internship as part of the @SouthernMiss @NSF-funded NRT. https://t.co/iIy6PDWUY1

[Derek Patton @dereklpatton]

First @ChemRxiv preprint from the @PattonGroupUSM (kudos to @atwillskywalker). In this work, thiols and light are used to construct and destruct polymer thermosets on command! The photodegradation movie is mesmerizing (solid to liquid in seconds) - check it out!

[Cassandra Reese @CassandraMReese]

Excited to see another manuscript from grad school is published in Macromolecules! Check out our recent work on Quantifying Strain in Wrinkled Polymer Brush Surfaces. Thank you @dereklpatton Chris Stafford @WeiGuo_twit @BrittJTho @PhillipKLogan

Congrats to @AlamedaBenjamin, Travis Palmer (Wiggins Group), and to our two undergraduate coauthors Jonathan Sisemore and @NSF #REU Nicholas Pierini.

[Derek Patton @dereklpatton]

Our latest publication describing the synthesis of #degradable poly(β-thioether ester ketal) thermosets via photopolymerization was just published in @PolymChem! https://t.co/vyHe5vA8qf Congrats to @AlamedaBenjamin and coauthors! @PattonGroupUSM

[Derek Patton @dereklpatton]

Brittany Thompson - an outstanding senior undergraduate in the @PattonGroupUSM - placed 2nd in oral presentations for her division at the USM Undergraduate Research Symposium! Congrats Brittany!

[Derek Patton @dereklpatton]

Michael Sandoz, an outstanding @USM_Polymers undergraduate in the @PattonGroupUSM, was awarded a prestigious #Goldwater Scholarship! Congratulations Michael!
