Summary |
The group published a number of papers about the new photochromic hydrazones and their use in manipulating liquid crystal properties, and polymer actuation. Check the publication section for more details. Jared and Mark published a PNAS perspective about new molecular switch architectures, Ivan became a Fellow of the Royal Society of Fellows, and we got new funding through NSF MSN. So we have been busy!
