Our freshest PhD candidate @MatthewElardo ! Congrats on passing your general exam! Check out our recent @ChemicalScience paper on cyclic bottle brush polymer lead by Matt! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

Check out @nanohoops latest on strain-promoted reactivity of bent alkynes to make highly fluorescent, pinwheel-like carbon nanostructures, now published in @J_A_C_S pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

Nobel Laureate David Baker on the phone with fellow awardees Demis Hassabis and John Jumper. The trio discussed how their teams have inspired one another and what the future may hold.
Our latest in cyclic polymer synthesis and uses now out in @ChemicalScience!
New paper out in @ChemicalScience!
We used our modified polymer initiator to synthesize cyclic bottle brush polymers via graft-through REMP and tested their mechanical properties upon cross linking!
Congrats @MatthewElardo, @amluw and @anapolymer ! doi.org/10.1039/D4SC06050D

Mechanochemistry could broaden the horizon of synthetic chemistry. In this macromolecules paper, we prove that the polymerization of ionic monomers in ball milling can provide a wide scope, including copolymerization with orthogonally soluble monomers. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

@drdre4000, @AurMatthew, and I are looking for 1 to 5 people for some Tuesday morning Tennis #ACS2024. Send us a DM if you are interested, bring a racket (sorry for the late notice), and lets get some healthy excercise in!
Third annual @golder_team hike this week to send off Dr. @MeredithPomfre1
PhD #2 - Dr. @MeredithPomfre1! The second of two OGs to begin back in 2019... a bittersweet summer for sure. We'll miss our original shape-shifter and more recent cyclic expert in CHB.
Historical handshake of PhD #2 from Team Golder! Congratulations to Dr. Meredith Pomfret @MeredithPomfre1 ! Your brilliance and mentorship has helped all generations of Golder-lites (so far😉) in their scientific journey! We will miss you so much 🎉🎉🎉 🧵
Recent @golder_team work led by @SkalaMorgan featured in @ChemistryWorld. One step towards an even bigger goal!
Post-consumer polystyrene can be upcycled by a mechanochemical method – liquid-assisted ball mill grinding.

Molecular Ball Joints: Mechanochemical Perturbation of Bullvalene Hardy–Cope Rearrangements in Polymer Networks | Journal of the American Chemical Society @AurMatthew @UWChemistry #Polymers @golder_team #Mechanochemistry #Cope #Bullvalene pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…
What happens when you "pull" on bullvalene? Find out in our next bullvalene story, now out in @J_A_C_S (pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…). We look at the thermomechanical consequences of fluxional shapeshifters in thermosets. Persistence and collaboration were key!
I am delighted to see our absolutely FUN polymer network out in @J_A_C_S from @golder_team! I learned so much from our wonderful collaborators at @TAMUChemistry, @UChicago and @UWChemE, thank y’all for this collaborative work. My first paper ever ✅🤩🎉

So excited to be @Macro2024!! I'd love for you to come hear me talk about post-polymerization C-N bond formation!
Replying to @golder_team
The wonderful @Oh_Mercie will be in S019 at 4:45pm on day 1 sharing her research “Post-Polymerization Modification of Polybutadiene via Selenium-Catalyzed Allylic Aminations”!
Looking forward to a great @Macro2024 with this crew from @golder_team!
Team Golder at @Macro2024 (@AurMatthew joining us shortly)! Come have check out our talks! (In thread)
