The Moore Group

Congratulations to the entire team! This global effort would not have been possible without @MrBSussels leading the charge!

It is ALIVE! Controlled Frontal Ring-Opening Metathesis Polymerization lead by @dmalzates. This was a blast to be a part of! Check it out! @Mechanophore @MooreGroupUIUC pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Celebrated another great year in the Moore group; looking forward to the year ahead!

Congrats to second year, Brittany, on an awesome literature seminar! Thanks for teaching us about synthetic digital polymers for data storage applications!

Excited that this collaborative work with @johnsonchem @BeckmanInst is finally in print! Check out our work on manufacturing, deconstruction, and upcycling of p(DCPD) based thermosets here: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

PhDid it!!!

Congratulations to @TheRealSlimK8ti who successfully defended her PhD thesis yesterday! Talented chemist, amazing collaborator, gifted speaker - she's going to have a highly impactful career at @3M. Katie will be missed by many @MooreGroupUIUC @ChemistryUIUC @BeckmanInst

A love for thorough polymer characterization was inspired by two Steve's from Dow Chemical - Steve Martin and Steve Hahn. This paper is dedicated to you. Thanks for the great work @MrBSussels and the open access venue @KlokLab pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Pretty cool having our work as the front cover of ACS Macro Letters! Check it out! @Mechanophore @MacroJrnls_ACS @MooreGroupUIUC pubs.acs.org/toc/amlccd/11/…

Very nice Reference Publication Year Spectroscopy (RPYS) for investigating the origins of a chemical research topic using the CRExplorer (crexplorer.net) chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

We're excited to share a preprint of a huge team effort coming out of our collaboration w/ @MooreGroupUIUC & the Sottos group on the efficient manufacturing, deconstruction & upcycling of high-performance thermosets & thermoset composites! Check it out: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

@weizhangCU @NatureChemistry @J_A_C_S Dude, you’re on fire! Keep it going. Power to the delta! It’s all about the change.

Switching frontal polymerization mechanism for in-situ thermoset welding is now online! @ACSMacroLett @Mechanophore @MooreGroupUIUC @Parmeetk12 pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Getting set to send @dmalzates to @NU_Chemistry for the start of his independent career. Diego made the @MooreGroupUIUC better every day. He leaves behind many exciting new directions that will push us forward for years to come. And we will eagerly watch his research develop.

Jeff (@Mechanophore) our fearless leader, mentor, and friend, steps down as Beckman Institute director and returns to his research group, but the 'ExCITED' values stay. Welcome to join this virtual celebration on Aug 19th. emails.illinois.edu/newsletter/160… @BeckmanInst @MooreGroupUIUC

So pround of all @MooreGroupUIUC members, past and present. Today's @ChemistryUIUC newsletters highlight new leadership roles for @jenheemstra and @weizhangCU

My first day as the Chair of Chemistry Department @CUBoulder. I am honored to serve this important role, with all the strong support from our fabulous faculty and staff. Looking forward to more interactions/collaborations with other institutions/organizations!🤝🤝

Lighting up the FROMP world with some new research! Couldn’t have done it without awesome scientists Chloe Wendell, ⁦@MrBSussels⁩, and ⁦@Mechanophore⁩ pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Nancy Sottos @UofIllinois @IllinoisMatSE was also elected to the National Academy of Sciences today — so a very exciting few days😎! Congratulations 🌟❤️🌟

Nancy Sottos of @UofIllinois @IllinoisMatSE has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences for outstanding contributions to the field of self-healing materials. Sottos is also a @theNAEng member. Read more: ow.ly/ZF7K50IYF6X #NAS159
