Excited to share our latest publication! Check this out to see how MOFs can be incorporated into photo resins with PIPS! This is an approach to formulate photo polymers that can be 3D printed with excellent catalytic activity!
Two is better than one!! Our newest paper is out! With coauthor @Sachini_DP, we demonstrate how MOFs can be 3D printed with PIPS to bring more MOF to the surface to catalyze the degradation of chemical warfare agents. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…

Our work on covalent organic framework based dielectric films, just accepted in @angew_chem. Special thanks to @ronsmaldone, @smaldonelab gang and all the co-authors.
Check out our latest work on solution processable COFs (+ their mechanical & dielectric properties), now accepted in @angew_chem! This was a collaboration between the @smaldonelab (led by @milinda_sena) and the @molecularfndry (w/Dr Henry Li & Dr Yi Liu) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Pleased to share our most recent paper on clinical translational of MOFs published in @NatRevMater. Here we discuss why research on translation potential is rare, what opportunities we see and how we can address the current obstacles to make MOFs to the clinic! 💊💉🧬🏥

Thank you @bgsc_utd for the opportunity. It was great working with you all!
Piumi served as the academic chair of BioGSC for 2022-2023. She is a 4th year PhD candidate in Jia lab studying the role of adipose tissues in the development of Alcoholic Liver Disease. Ready to do whatever the council needed, she kept the students well-informed!

Congratulations @milinda_sena 🤩
The @smaldonelab's first foray into solution processable COFs is up on @ChemRxiv! We used a pore-modification approach to create flexible, hydrazone-linked COF films that can be easily fabricated into dielectric devices. Check it out here: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv…

Congrats to DR Sachini Perera for passing her thesis defense today! She’s off to 🇨🇦 to work with @Metamaterialtec starting next Monday. We still managed to squeeze in a goodbye dinner last Friday to get some tasty Sri Lankan food @SpicyZest.

Here is my second #RSCPoster! We are working on utilizing ZIF-8 as a coating to develop an intranasal-route, slow-release system. As a first step, we performed biocompatibility studies on mice with a focus on their respiratory health. #RSCMat #RSCNano #RSCChemBio

Delighted to share my #RSCPoster on our recently published work in @chemicalScience. We show it is possible to control the release of biomacromolecules from MOFs in plants and animals using CO2 as a reactive acidifying release agent! #RSCChemBio #RSCNano #RSCMat #Chemtwitter

New Year, new preprint! Now you can read about @rebeccamj916's GRC poster award winning work in long form on @ChemRxiv. #3Dprinting composites from photoresins is a big challenge, but Rebecca and team made it happen, and did it using renewable, bio-based starting materials.
I’m delighted to share that our new preprint is out! In this work, we studied how to create self-healing 3D printable resins from bio based materials such as lignin, vanillin and soybean oil! chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv… @smaldonelab @KarenCorguz @Sachini_DP @ronsmaldone
