We gathered earlier today for a farewell party for @michocheje and @Abdusalom! Listening to their words was quite an emotional moment for everyone. We hope that you two will succeed in your career following your tenure in the group, and hopefully the nice gifts remind you of us!

Second (and the last!) poster today from the group in 2025 @ChemistryMIT Organic Retreat comes from our synthetic expert @ashton_rda! This will not last for long, so come talk to him before the windy day wraps up (have you seen this poster before though...?)!

Secondly, we continue our streak of having a new paper and a lab member! Charles Jackson, an undergraduate from @TAMU, recently joined our lab as an MSRP intern and will work with Georgios for the summer. He will bring his knowledge about biosensing with small molecules. Welcome!

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…

New paper comes with a new lab member! We welcome Hayeon Kim, an exchange Ph.D. student from Dr. Heetae Jung @KAIST_CBE. 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!

🦞🤲: 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…!

SwagerGroup's tweet card. Easily tunable and processable, porous organic polymers (POPs) have found increasing utility in various applications. Molecular modeling and simulations are invaluable tools in polymer science but...
