Congratulations Jeffrey Long of UC Berkeley, newly inducted #NASmember ! #NAS161 #chemistry

A slamdunk of a defense from our newest PhD Jules Oppenheim, who has likely developed the deepest insight in water sorption in MOFs, with his magnum opus still to come out, on top of his amazing productivity! Congrats Jules!

An important advance for conductive MOFs! Congrats Sarah Park and Christopher H. Hendon pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Our organic battery featured by World Economic Forum! instagram.com/p/C5DoGwLNx2j/

Beggining to peel away at what makes MOFs better supercaps: distancing the layers with alkyl groups helps! Now out in Angewandte Chemie from Alice Su and collaborators in the Vlad group at UC Louvain: doi.org/10.1002/anie.2…

Towards understanding hysteresis with water sorption in MOFs. Nice careful study from the ever-curious Jules Oppenheim and our super collaborators Paesani Lab , now out in Chemistry of Materials pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Thanks Amy Lucía Prieto for such an insightful commentary on our ACS Central Science work! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

A reality that hurts. It's never too early, and hopefully not too late, to accelerate transition to renewables and sustainable energy storage cleantechnica-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/cleantechn…

About six years ago, MIT Chemistry professor Mircea Dincă’s lab began working on a project to develop an organic battery that could be used to power electric cars news.mit.edu/2024/cobalt-fr…

POSTDOC POSITION available in the brozeklab to pioneer non-linear spectroscopy (SFG) to study nanoparticle interfaces!

Apply by emailing Carl directly with CV. Experience with ultrafast spectroscopy desired.

We're getting more interested in ions and MOFs: A MOF with a surprisingly high Zn2+-ion conductivity, fresh out in JACS! Courtesy of good-old cation exchange in one of my grad-school favorites... pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10… Jules Oppenheim Justin Andrews and X-less Andrei Iliescu.

Excited to report what should be a scalable, low-humidity water sorbent with high, tunable capacity. It was a pleasure hosting Dalal Alezi for a year under ibkfellowship.mit! Jules Oppenheim J. Am. Chem. Soc. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Today we highlight Yuriy Román-Leshkov for Hispanic Heritage month! Prof. Roman's team focuses on microenvironment design in catalysts through molecular engineering, reactor design and kinetics for sustainable chemical prod. , including lignin to aviation fuels and plastics circularity

MOFs are mostly made of metal-oxygen bonds and are electrical insulators. Just out, Kentaro shows that metal-carbon (organometallic) bonds greatly improve the conductivity in organic-inorganic hybrids. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Just out in ACS Sensors: we teamed up with Dinca's group Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) (@DincaGroupMIT) and Kim's lab at KAIST to demonstrate polymer-based sensors for real time monitoring of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) gas!
