🚨: New paper out! Just a few hours ago in J. Am. Chem. Soc., our postdoc Harrison Bergman introduces maleimide polyacetylene (mPA), a new n-type conjugated polymer with good conductivity & ambient stability, accessed via mild, base-mediated oxidation. Huge congrats! doi.org/10.1021/jacs.5…

🥳: Thursday fun never stops! Our awesome 4th year grad student (and incoming MIT GSC VP) Molly will soon give a seminar about "Mollymers" involving BOTH synthesis and computation. To see how cool her chemistry is, come to 4-370 next Wed at 4 PM (or a journal coming to you soon)!

Molly’s talk right now in 4-370 where we will hear about the collision of the worlds very soon 🔥☄️

📢: Magic Monday! Our great Ph.D. candidate ashton reports the synthesis of pentiptycene ether sulfone macromonomers en route to PIMs. The different robust conditions provide access to a variety of polymers. Tons of pentiptycenes for the lab to go! authors.elsevier.com/c/1k-Np7NHxUVlp

🚀Our new LEGO-like strategy for building asymmetric isoindigo semiconducting polymers is out now in Polymer Chemistry Huge congrats to Rachael Warner & the R-G group UWindsor Chemistry, and major thanks to our awesome collaborators Gu Research Group 🔗 tinyurl.com/4cjcc64d

Excited to share my latest work on fully textile wearable capacitive pressure sensors, designed to monitor human body motion! 🧵🦾⚡️Huge thanks to my supervisors, Dr. Carmichael Tricia Carmichael and Dr. Simon Rondeau-Gagne for their guidance and support. doi.org/10.1021/acsami…

🗞️MIT Polymer Day is tomorrow! Our lab has the honor to present great posters in both sessions: session A from 10:15-11:15 with maryam Alsufyani and ashton and session B from 11:30-12:30 with Abdusalom Suleymanov. Come for the fun (and resources) and stay for the science! See you all!

Come see our superb chemists presenting in Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Polymer Day now! Session A is currently running with maryam Alsufyani’s poster #2 and ashton’s poster #16! Session B will be happening in an hour with Abdusalom Suleymanov’s poster #28. More polymers, more fun for the day!!!

Finally met my scientific hero Zhenan Bao while presenting some of my PhD work with Iain McCulloch at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Polymer day.

Group dinner yesterday in the historic Moore room with Collette Gordon as the main director of the organizing committee with the other superb third-year students, ashton, Thomas, and Zhewen! New group photo coming to you soon ;) Stay tuned!

🦞🤲: Our 5th year rising star Molly recently introduced a new programming platform, PolyPal, where POPs can be simulated more accurately while being user-friendly. You can access the program via her GitHub here github.com/warndorf/polyp… and read more at pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…!

New paper comes with a new lab member! We welcome Hayeon Kim, an exchange Ph.D. student from Dr. Heetae Jung CBE KAIST. Her research focuses on the metal oxide nanopatterning for gas sensor applications, and we are thrilled to see great science during her time here. Big welcome!

Action starts today at #CSC2025 for the R-G Group! Don’t miss Gage’s talk at 5 PM in Room 105 on our latest dendronized semiconducting polymers for soft transistor devices. Cool chemistry you do not want to miss 🔥

Good Tuesday is here! First, our postdoc Georgios introduces wavelength-orthogonally reversible photochemistry to interfacial photopolymerizations, demonstrating that the dynamic interplay of two wavelengths enables photoinduced error correction. Congrats! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Right now at 2025 MIT Chemistry Organic Retreat: Collette Gordon is kicking off for our lab for the series of presentations today! We look forward to hearing more about PFAS and her research very much 🍀🍀🍀

Chi-Hsien Wang with her distinguished poster as the next presenter for our group in 2025 MIT Chemistry Organic Retreat! We still have more science to share with you all throughout the day!

Huge congrats to R-G group’s very own Dr. Gage Mason Gage Mason on successfully defending his PhD dissertation today UWindsor Chemistry 👏 The whole team is incredibly proud🙌 Big thanks to the examining committee and external examiner Nazemi Group for their time and valuable feedback

☀️: Summer is almost over, but the great memories remain! Charles Jackson presented his poster reflecting his work in the lab today at the MSRP Poster Session. Featured in the pics are Tim (!!!), Charles's hoodmate Kien Phuong, his mentor Georgios, mayar & our 3rd years!!

A big congrats to R-G group's newest PhD, Dr. Kulatunga Piumi Kulatunga who successfully defended her thesis today UWindsor Chemistry 🔥👏 We couldn’t be prouder of her hard work and dedication🙌Many thanks to the committee and Dr. Yuning Li University of Waterloo for their great feedbacks 🔥
