See how we can make the large-ring cyclodextrin formed from 9-glucose units in JACS this week! Templated Enzymatic Synthesis of δ-Cyclodextrin pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

I am absolutely thrilled to welcome Xiaodong Michael Shi Prof. Michael Shi back to UMD Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry UMD Science as a Professor of Chemistry! chem.umd.edu/news/synthetic…

Feeling reinvigorated after a visit to the local elementary school for a career day presentation. Molecular containers were a hit!

Congrats to Dr David King for successfully defending if his dissertation!

I'm happy to share a recently published paper born by a fruitful collaboration between INITIO consortium members: Chiral Recognition by Supramolecular Porphyrin–Hemicucurbit[8]uril-Functionalized Gravimetric Sensors | ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Are you looking for a postdoc position to develop polymer materials for flexible electronics while maintaining a healthy work-life balance? Join the Crawford group in sunny FL!

Need a superstar postdoc? Piyuni Piyuni ishtaweera will be available in January! She’s a clever materials scientist and a whiz with nano, deep eutectic solvents, and fluorescence. My loss can be your gain. Please retweet!!

For those of you teaching advanced Organic Spectroscopy this fall, please check out the (simulated) spectral problem set packets I created using ACD/Labs NMR Team software. doi.org/10.13016/5he2-…

Come be our colleague … multiple openings at UMD!

With a new building going up in 2024 and plenty of research opportunities around, we are looking for team members to join our chemistry and biochemistry graduate programs. Deadline 12/15/23 . To apply, please go to gradschool.umd.edu. Contact us if you have any questions!

A very sad day indeed. Prof. Nolte’s work on glycoluril derived supramolecular systems was inspirational to me and many others!

Very proud of Suvenika Perera for leading this outstanding work! Also pleased that we were able to dedicate this work to the memory of former colleague Bruce Jarvis. UMD Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry
