Today is @MichiganChem first day of visitation! We are excited to meet you!

Hello chemists! If you’re at #ACSSpring2023 make sure to check out grad student Gloria’s talk on Wednesday morning to learn about symmetric tetrazines as redox active materials in nonaqueous RFBs! Details below

CONGRATS to Rahul @JhaRahulKant on passing his candidacy exam this morning! ⭐️ We are so proud of you!! That PVC doesn’t know what’s coming for it 😏

CONGRATS to 2nd year Maddie Clough (@MadelineEClough) for passing her gateway exam this morning!! We’re so proud of you! ⭐️ #teammicroplastics

📢❗️ Abstract submission for #ngrpc2023 will remain open until January 31! Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to present your polymer research work, network, and interact with polymer scientists in industry, academia, and government.

New merch alert! 🚨 Look at these mugs we just got with a beautiful logo designed by @MadelineEClough. I bet we can fit so much espresso in these 😎

Few people realize that invisible plastic bits make it into the air we breathe. Madeline Clough wants to change that. thestoryexchange.org/madeline-cloug…

Our labmate is a rockstar! 🌟 Congrats to Maddie @MadelineEClough for winning @TheStoryXchange Women in Science Prize for her work on airborne microplastics!! Read all about some amazing women below 👩‍🔬👇 thestoryexchange.org/meet-the-winne…

We’d like to give a warm welcome to our newest member, Henry Thurber! Henry is a first year PhD student in the Macromolecular Science & Engineering program, and will be joining team #microplastics!

We’re so stoked to see this out in the world!! Some truly innovative work by Dr. Danielle Fagnani 💡

We’re in the market for a new flash column system! Which do you prefer? Which models are you using?

Impactful words by @CarolynBertozzi today on how diversity in her trainees enabled creativity, not playing by the rules, and ultimately the work that built the field of bioorthogonal chemistry. Diverse science leads to better science!

Playing with our NEW stereomicroscope this afternoon by… looking at strands of hair 🤓 Whose hair is the thickest 👀

Happy to share our recent publication! Large Variability and Complexity of Isothermal Solubility for a Series of Redox-Active Phenothiazines - now published in Materials Advances pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art… @JMaterChem @RoySocChem

Check out our mentoring handbook below 👇 We worked together to create specific guidelines for mentoring relationships in our group. Did we miss anything?

Liz is working with Vai on degradable polymers ♻️ @malavika_ramkl is working with @WoojungJi on new adhesives for microplastic capture🧫 @coolhandluke_18 is working with @JhaRahulKant on polymer upcycling ↗️

We'd like to give a warm welcome to our three rotation students, Malavika, Liz, and Lucas!👋 Looking forward to a great semester with you all!

Our efforts in the Huron River Cleanup event – Fall 2022!! We picked 421 pieces of trash (mostly cigarette filters, plastic wraps/bottles, and broken glass) at the Marshall nature area. Our special guest helped us a lot 🐶😊 @A2Parks @A2Give365 @MichiganChem @McNeilGroup

Did our part for the @MichiganChem park cleanup! #A2cleanup2022
