Thrilled to share my latest in J. Am. Chem. Soc. about enhancing organometallic catalysis using sulfated Zr MOFs! We interrogated a lot of mysteries from the metal oxide literature, including structural evolution, acidity, and reactivity. Check it out here: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

A tremendous thanks to all my co-authors on this, without whom none of this would have been possible! @WoodrowC14 Florencia Son Tim Goetjen Alon Chap Kira Fanrui Sha Xingjie @DMKaphan @gagliardi8 @ANLcatalysis @OmarFarha5 DOE Office of Science Argonne National Lab Northwestern Chemistry


Very excited for my last first author paper from grad school Northwestern Chemistry to be out now in The Journal of Physical Chemistry! A great collaboration with fantastic scientists Argonne National Lab to discover catalyst active site and mechanistic insights in a well-defined #MOF.


Huge thank you to all of my wonderful collaborators and advisors for their help with this project Zhao Li Florencia Son @FormalikFilip Timur Islamoglu Lauren Macreadie Randall Snurr @OmarFarha5




Check out one of my final grad school projects, completed by some awesome #WomenInSTEM doing high pressure synchrotron work!!! Megan Wasson Kira Courtney Smoljan The Farha Group @OmarFarha5 Communications Chemistry

In situ variable pressure PXRD of dynamic MOFs finds that increased structural flexibility results in enhanced mechanical resilience, by The Farha Group @OmarFarha5 Florencia Son. nature.com/articles/s4200…




Interested in measuring molecular transport properties using some commercial volumetric adsorption systems available in your lab? Check our latest paper published ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…. A user-friendly Python notebook for transport model fitting is available in SI.

New work in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces on measuring mass transfer in fibers using a commercial volumetric adsorption apparatus. Lovely mathematical analysis by Kaihang Shi to go along with experimental work by Florencia Son and @OmarFarha5. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…
