Excited to share this collaborative work with the @ianatonks group, led by a powerhouse duo @ditzler_rach and @rachelrap77. We demonstrated architectural editing of polyester and polyurethane backbones through Pd-catalyzed 3,3-rearrangements pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…
Check out Dr. Wang's latest work on templating entanglements in polymer elastomers! @FuShengWang0318
Excited to share the first installment of our work on templated entanglements led by Dr. Fu-Sheng Wang in the @ZhukoGroup, with help on fluorimetry from John Dickenson in the @MeyerGroupUNC: pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…
Congratulations to Dr. King and Dr. Johnson for successfully defending their thesis this week! @kingak333 @DrakeChem
Congratulations Dr. Ditzler @ditzler_rach, the first PhD from our group!

Congrats to Andrew (@kingak333) for being selected for the Excellence in Graduate Polymer Research Symposium!
Thank you @NatRevChem for featuring our review article on the cover of the September 2023 issue! Check it out here: nature.com/natrevchem/volume… @Alex_Zhuko @ditzler_rach @kingak333 @Maxim_Ratushnyy @uncchemistry
Congrats to Maxim (@Maxim_Ratushnyy) who has recently departed the group for a job at Syngenta! You will be greatly missed!
We will be missing Rachael (@ditzler_rach) for 12 weeks while she's off at an internship at Procter & Gamble. Best of luck!
A wonderful editorial contributed to by Hilary (@hilaryfk8) in honor of Juneteenth. Check it out!
Pls check out our editorial in JACS. We describe ways to retain Black talent in chemistry. This was a fun project with multiple @urichmond @richmondas chem dept students and alums. In honor of the Juneteenth holiday! @acsJACS @thaiscott @academika_gw pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…
We'd like to welcome Isabella, an undergrad at UNC, to the group! Fun fact - Isabella is a member of the UNC fencing team.
