Members of the Coates group helped organize the annual @CornellEYH conference, helped run a workshop, and accompanied conference participants during their day! A lot of hard work went into this great conference and so happy we get to be a part of it every year!

For the chemists out there, this research started in the early 2000's as one of my job proposals. It only took 20 'short' years to get it to market! Kudos to Zengquan Qin from @TheCoatesCrew who discovered the catalyst, and Scott Allen and the Novomer folks for their hard work.

Thrilled to have my first first-author paper out in @angew_chem! Was such a pleasure diving into this research area and learning from all my amazing coauthors, including our talented undergrad, Renee! 🤩 @peltierplates @TheCoatesCrew @GeoffreyWCoates @CornellChem @GroupNoonan
Daringly direct! See our latest in @angew_chem where we develop a surprisingly simple, direct insertion polymerization of ionic monomers to rapidly produce membranes for alkaline fuel cell technologies ⚡️ https://t.co/oLl8XCAYDd
