We are doing it again! If you are a US-based undergraduate student interested in materials science topics, apply for the 2nd edition of our #MateriAlZ Winter School. This event is free of charge with the support by @NSF, @ASU and @uarizona. Apply here: bit.ly/Materialz2025

The Seo Lab is honored to be selected as a recipient of the prestigious DOE ECRP award! We will use the grant to develop dynamic polymer networks engineered by nanotechnology and improve the material sustainability.

A lovely read for your morning: npr.org/sections/the-p…

One of my students gave me this gift from their recent travels and I can't get over how cool it is:

Exciting news!! The result of a huge endeavor by our depolymerization team, Sewon Oh and Hanning Jiang, has dropped on ChemRxiv. 🎉 Check it out below! ⬇️ doi.org/10.26434/chemr… These two never stop, so stay tuned for more discoveries to come 🤫♻️

Just noting that Kamala Harris's mother, Shyamala Gopalan, was a terrific scientist. Grad school at 19, PhD Berkeley at 25 in 1964! Here, she is first and corresponding author on an excellent and highly cited PNAS based on an NIH grant with her as PI. jstor.org/stable/44171

Excited to see @SM3ASU @NSF EFRI REM summer undergraduate researchers, graduate student mentors, and faculty visit @PHXPublicWorks! Together, we're committed to sustainability and recycling for a better future! 🌱♻️

@M_Seifrid @RCSA1 @BeckmanFnd @ddom_lab @CoryMSimon @cgbischak Wow, congratulations to you and the team--exciting news!

Huge thanks to @RCSA1, @BeckmanFnd & Cottrell Foundation! The @ddom_lab is really excited to start working with @CoryMSimon and @cgbischak on this project

Yesterday, a student referred to a reference as "that paper from the 1900's". I thought he was talking about a seminal paper from the 40's. He was talking about a paper from 1995.

Proud of Jen-Chieh, Thaly, and Clarissa for getting recognized at @ASUBiodesign Fusion annual retreat!🏅👏 Jen-Chieh: Awarded for best use of physical principles Thalia: Awarded for best use of chemistry Clarissa: People's choice award

Join our #MateriAlZ Seminar tomorrow! Dr. Stoerzinger @UMNews will talk about perovskites and their activity for oxygen electrocatalysis. As always, hosted by @asu @ASU_SMS @uarizona @azengineering. 10.30 am MST, pw: 716475 material-az.org

Check out our perspective that shines light on the bright field of photoactive ROMP! PhotoROMP: The Future Is Bright | ACS Catalysis pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

@LessardLab Wow--beautiful space! Will have to come out and visit sometime soon

Lab space, excited to get started!

We're hiring a postdoctoral researcher to join @SM3ASU working in the @TELongLab and the Self Lab. Experience in polymers, synthesis, and/or photochemistry is desired. More information here: labs.engineering.asu.edu/self/opportuni… Please retweet and share! #chempostdoc

Congratulations to @zakpage (UT Austin) on receiving the Herman F. Mark Young Scholar Award! POLY looks forward to honoring Zachariah's achievement during the #ACSFall2024 Meeting! #POLYAward #24MarkYoungAward

Cyclic ketene acetals (CKAs) are unique monomers for radical ring-opening polymerization (rROP) to generate #degradable #polymers. In a recent @J_A_C_S paper, we reported sugar-based CKAs for quantitative and regio-/stereo-selective rROP. @ChemistryBC #glycotime

New #ASUEngineering Assistant Professor @PolymerJeff is excited to work with today’s generation of socially and environmentally conscious students as we address the #chemicalengineering challenges of tomorrow! 💪 fullcircle.asu.edu/welcome/jeffre…

@SM3ASU is thrilled to announce that @YoanCSimon will join its faculty as a core faculty member with a tenure home in @ASU_SMS! Welcome to ASU, Professor Simon!
