Dr. Karen Wooley, Distinguished Professor in @TAMUChemistry, was recenlty featured in @CENMag for her recent talk and research on developing sugar-based alternatives to petrochemical plastics. Read more: cen.acs.org/acs-news/meeti…

Principal Investigator David C. Powers along with other @TAMU researchers highlight the importance of conducting kinetic experiments to assess the origin of apparent catalytic activity with MOFs and the challenge of harnessing reactive oxidants with microporous catalyst…

Dr. François Gabbaï and his team at @TAMUChemistry captured two rare stages of bond formation—an uncommon feat in physical organic chemistry. Their findings, published in @ScienceMagazine, could help shape future catalyst design. 🔬 artsci.tamu.edu/research/updat…

⚛️ @TAMUChemistry leads a statewide team selected as 1 of just 29 semifinalists in NSF’s $160M Innovation Engines competition — positioning @TAMU at the forefront of transforming chemical waste into economic opportunity. Read more: tx.ag/TAMUChemNSFSem…

It was a great pleasure to attend the 74th Lindau Nobel Laureate meeting in Germany. Thanks to Dr. Powers, Dr. Gabbaï and @TAMU for this amazing opportunity. Forever grateful. @TAMUChemistry @Powers_Lab

The devastation across Central Texas is a stark reminder of how quickly lives can change — and how deeply service, unity and resilience matter. To those who have lost loved ones, who are searching, grieving or rebuilding — we stand with you. And to our first responders, student…

Excited to introduce "Quantum Ninjas vs Laser Robots", a board game to introduce QM to school kids :) Thanks to @SoonmiLim for making this possible!!!!!

Thanks, Mandal research group @arkajitmandal, for leading the last chemistry program for the Katy ISD @katyisd students! Your Quantum Ninjas vs. Laser Robots board game was a hit! Thanks, Ms. Kram @nik_kram, for organizing the campus visits. @TAMUChemistry @TAMUArtSci

Meet our group's newest PhD candidate: Jeff! He crushed his preliminary exam last week and we couldn't be prouder of his progress these past two years! Welcome to candidacy, Jeff!🥳

Have you ever run a rxn using a gas reagent? Did you wish you could monitor it in real time? Now you can😎! Check out our new GRI-NMR system to monitor rxns using a continuous flow of a gas reagent at 1atm. ⁦⁩@AThomasLab⁩ ⁦@jeanettephos⁩ ⁦⁦⁦@ChemMethods⁩

How are water molecules structured in water nanodroplets? Check out our latest article on finite volume effects published in @acsnano Work from @SylvieRoke's lab at @EPFL_BioE with Li Zhang and Paul S Cremer pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

The Hudnall lab is hiring a Postdoctoral Fellow! Applicants excited about joining our recently relocated research group and interested in the synthesis of exotic main-group molecules, materials and heterodiatomics can email Dr. Hudnall directly. Please share!
