Paper as a Material

Page
Paper has been used by humans for thousands of years. Today paper is a commodity material commonly used for printing and packaging, but the properties of paper make it appropriate for many other uses. Paper, for example, is porous, it wicks liquids, it is...

Dissipative Systems

Page
Chemistry tends to study systems at, or moving toward, thermodynamic equilibrium. But the most interesting systems in the world around us—life, thought, combustion, ecosystems, traffic, epidemics, the stock market, the planetary environment, weather...

Soft Robotics

Page
Overview The development of new types of soft robotic structures, and especially materials and methods for the fabrication of such robots, requires and offers rich new opportunities for collaborations involving organic chemistry, soft materials science...

Diagnostics, Bioanalytics, and other Tools for Global Health

Page
In low-resource settings (e.g., rural clinics in sub-Saharan Africa or a forward-deployed military unit), meeting the need for high-quality medical diagnostics requires overcoming four challenges: 1) harsh transportation and storage conditions, 2)...

Density as a Tool for Chemistry and Biology

Page
Density, defined as the ratio of the mass and volume of an object, is a fundamental characteristic of all matter. In our lab, we have developed two density-based platforms—aqueous multiphase systems (AMPS) and magnetic levitation (MagLev)—that can be used...

Electrochemistry

Page
Electrochemistry is a well-established and very diverse technique which has found utility in analytical chemistry, materials chemistry, organic synthesis, and others. Our interest in electrochemistry relates to aspects which have largely been ignored in...
