With this announcement, we are also SPLiTting from X and will be on 🦋under the same handle
Our new collab with @ZPageGroup throws it back to good ol’ gen chem days! 🧪 With simple acid/base stoichiometry, we buffer the initiation of *two* photopolymerizations in *one* pot— enabling multimaterial 3D printing from ONE light source. 💡 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

I am so excited to announce that I will be joining the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering @NCState as an assistant professor in July 2025! I couldn’t have done it without the support of my mentors (@JodieLutkenhaus/@brett_fors) and my lab mates at TAMU/@forsgroup

The Fors group helped organize the @CornellEYH conference and led a workshop on cross-linking poly(vinyl alcohol) and amylose to make slime and bouncy balls! So much work went into such a fun weekend!
