I'm looking to hire a postdoc with experience in inorganic chemistry or materials. The position is fully funded and will last anywhere from 2-3 years. Applicants can learn more here (delrelab.com) and reach out directly to me to chat. Join us in NYC! #Chemjobs

Excited to share this picture of the 2023 U.S. National Science Foundation NSF CHE CAREER workshop for new faculty! Thanks to all program officers from NSF, ACS PRF, DOE, and NIH and all our faculty mentors who shared their tips and tricks for successful applications with our young colleagues!

Congratulations to my first two PhD students—Lakshika Malwana and Kenny Barriales—for winning this prestigious fellowship! Great start to their scientific careers.

One of our papers from my postdoc tenure is now available at JACS! We show important results to design "porous water," but I am particularly excited about the ramifications for understanding how polymers thread into micropores. Stay tuned! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

We're looking for a new assistant professor to join our Structural Biology team at the CUNY Advanced Science Research Center CUNY ASRC! info here: academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/25938 (1/n)

Well I’m glad to say that my last piece of Ph.D. work is published as the front cover for the current issue of Polymer Chemistry. Thank you for the opportunity! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Thrilled to announce the upcoming Bio-Inspired Green (BIG) Science & Technology Symposium co-organized with Rein Ulijn and Christopher DelRe! Speakers include Karen L Wooley, Sam Stupp and more. Join us in NYC April 18-19! rb.gy/8m94zs

In honor of Women’s History Month: the talented scientists in our group!

So excited for this award and lucky to have an amazing group that made this possible. Our first papers will be coming out early in 2025! 💪

I just won an Early Career Program award from the US Army to fund one of my projects! We’ve now raised over $2mil in external funding in the 2 years since opening my lab. We’re excited to use this money to produce great new materials for both military and civilian applications!

My group's first paper is now published! We show how to quantify and control polymer threading into sub-2 nm micropores using simple strategies. We anticipate that these results will be impactful for a wide variety of applied and fundamental directions. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Check out this fantastic research highlight in Nature Reviews Chemistry about our recent JACS paper! nature.com/articles/s4157…

Threading Polymers—Blends of polymers with microporous particles are crucial for many modern technologies, but quantifying and controlling the threading of polymers is challenging. In their recent work reported in J. Am. Chem. Soc., Kaur, DelRe, et al. propose two new strategies. One
