I am a polymer chemist studying the equilibration kinetics of block copolymer micelles in ionic liquids. I study this by shooting light or X-rays at my polymers to see structural changes over time!. #Iamachemist #WomenInSTEM #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience

Very excited to share our recent work on the molecular weight dependence of micelle fragmentation kinetics! This was a really fun collaborative effort with @BrookhavenLab staff at the NSLS II. Check it out if you like micelles!

Excited to share some of my recent work on liquid-phase TEM and block copolymer micelle dynamics. Registration is free!.
Many thanks to Marcus Reis (@LeibfarthGroup) and Fabian Pooch for two excellent talks today! Next week we have @julia_early and Friederike Richter presenting their research. Make sure you've registered so you don't miss out!

Any advice on what a grad student should put on their business card? Leaning towards keeping it simple with basic contact info, but I’d love some other ideas! #chemtwitter.
