Come say hello in our #SustainablePolymers Symposium at #S25MRS!
>30 talks [Tuesday through Thursday] and 15 posters [Tuesday] scheduled to be presented.
Teaming up with @KJDeFrance@JoshWorchPhD & Erlantz Lizundia to plan this was so fun!
See you all in #Seattle!
🎉 Congrats to Meng Jiang, winner of the #PMSE Graduate Student Travel Award!
Her research explores dynamic covalent chemistry for recyclable and adaptable electronic materials. Catch her talk at #ACSSpring2025!
📅 March 24 | ⏰ 9:15 AM | 📍 Marriott Marquis, Pacific Ballroom 24
I’m very excited to share our new perspective review on dynamic polymers and how it can influence future polymer field. Check it out for some spicy opinions from Worch Lab!
Excited to also share our perspective in @JPolymSci on emerging impacts of dynamic polymers in today's polymer economy. How and where might they be most impactful? What lingering challenges must be addressed? What is their ceiling potential? https://t.co/TuDBpMGrZf
Over the moon to see our work w/ @Dove_Group appearing today in Nature https://t.co/HSrzkkFyTW! We disclose a fundamental advance in photoresin technology for vat photopolymerization 3D printing that is congruent with principles of green chemistry and a circular economy. 1/8
So happy to see Victoria's work finally out in @J_A_C_S ! Learn about the mechanism for #CO2 homocoupling by coordinatively saturated Cu complexes: special thanks to the ligand for doing all the chemistry 🧪

A wonderful @POLY_ACS conference on #sustainable polymer in Safety Harbor, FL. Getting to know cutting-edge research and meeting passionate scientists in the field, offer me optimism and peace. May it prosper!
Why do molecules smell? We create explanations for why molecules have one of 112 scents. The explanations are distilled into natural language. We're excited about data -> model -> explanation of mols. Work by Aditi (looking for PhD program!), @gandhi_heta, @GWellawatte 1/3
Is there a job where I can just sit around and make cool chemistry, math, and sciviz projects? I'm starting to realize academia isn't exactly sit in a quiet and do what you want to advance science.
