🔥A new trick from our lab: >1M molecular weight semicrystalline "polycyclohexene" that can deploymerize at room temp. Even better, scalable using commodity monomers. Congrats to 🎉🎉Ke Zheng🎉🎉 who has transformed from a PAH maker to a polymer chemist https://t.co/GiqaVxW4x6

Thank you all for a fantastic first visit @KAIST_Chem! My days were filled with excitement, innovation, and lots of fun in the 'no-fun city' 😉

📢Registration is live for one of our longest-standing series #Carbon23 Join Chairs @UOHaleyLab, Marina Petrukhina (@ualbany) & the stellar list of confirmed speakers in May 2023☀️🇲🇽 #chemtwitter #carbonmolecules #carbonmaterials https://t.co/tWZBUSNDbz

"With an excellent student, you just sit back and let them do their own thing" this was the case. 100% Junzhe's idea and execution 🥳🎉

Grad to share the last piece of my PhD work with @YanXiaLab and the first corresponding paper! We introduced competitors to temporarilly supress the crosslinking to reversibly modulate hydrogel stiffness and viscoelasticity. https://t.co/fOm9BUFJra

We were thrilled to celebrate and hear @CarolynBertozzi's truly inspirational speech.🥂🍾🥳 From her mother's struggle and fight to obtain higher education to social and gender equality. On top of the impactful chemistry that chemists biologists engineers and many others benefit

“I’m the same person I was at 1 a.m., but I’m realizing that my voice now has a platform, and I’m thinking about how to use that.” -@CarolynBertozzi, winner of the 2022 #NobelPrize in chemistry 🗞: https://t.co/3I8Ihct7gM

Thank you all the authors for this touching memorial article. It was a lifelong honor to have worked with a brilliant and humble giant of our times!

Inaugural NorCal soft matter symposium @UCBerkeley was a big success 🎊🎊 Thank you Ting Xu @polymer_ucb for organizing this! Beginning of a new tradition. See you next year @Stanford!

Building and (regioselectively) breaking 🔲 rings to make curved carbons with predefined topologies @J_A_C_S Congrats to former and current Team Ladder 🪜members 🎉🎉Xianglin, Ke, Zexin @henryxinjin, & Matias @ladderchem

Thank you all! Finding the amazing students and collaborators is key 😀

Here is the actual 🪜and the correct link... https://t.co/nRETz0CXPr

This is also many years of unfunded but persistent effort. Hope we now have enough preliminary results for the next funding applications🤞🤞

🎉🥂🥳Congrats to former and current students Holden Lai, Joe Ahn, Ashley Robinson and our collaborators Francesco Benedetti, Zach Smith @SmithLabMIT and Yingge Wang, Ingo Pinnau at @KAUST_News

📢📢Latest on CANAL 🪜polymers in @ScienceMagazine: Tuning molecular 🪜 contortion gives unusual favorable aging and record-breaking performance for many energy-efficient membrane gas separations #PIMs #sustainability

Congratulations to all🌟! Including our very own 🌟 @danielcglee 🌟 @JunzheLou

Bob also enjoyed life and made people around him enjoy lives. This was taken on the last "group camping trip" with Bob (Bobs) on Aug 3, 2019. I'm still not a big fan of camping per se, but camping with Bob is a whole different thing. I'm glad I drove 6h to camp with Bob one night

I asked him what project I may work on. He said talk to the people in lab and find a good problem. On day 1, he taught me two most important lessons. Bob had full dedication and true love to science and the people around him.

The first time I met with Bob as a 1st yr grad student was on Dec 26, 2005. He asked if I'd be around on Dec 26. I had to confirm I heard him right. He was just back from Stockholm. Who would believe a new Nobel laureate would spend the day after xmas working as usual! #BobGrubbs

So saddened to hear your loss @barneygrubbs and the world's loss of the greatest and kindest person. Bob's impact and the fond memories will forever last. My heart goes with you and the Grubbs family.
