This past weekend, Laura and I went back to University of Illinois where it all began for us Chemistry at Illinois ILL

Exciting collaboration with Matt, Neil, and Abhi and their teams!🌞🧫 Chemistry at Illinois Research & Innovation at Illinois

In a 940 ft. stroll on the quad, chemistry Prof. Joaquín Rodríguez-López Rodríguez-López Electrochemistry Lab at Illinois shares the most rewarding thing about being a professor. 🧡💙

#ILLINOIS researchers Zeynep Madak-Erdogan, Robert Morrissey, Joaquín Rodríguez-López, Jacob Sherkow and Hanghang Tong have been named University Scholars in recognition of their excellence in teaching, scholarship and service.

Often I’ve questioned if I belong amongst this amazing community of scholars at University of Illinois - so much history and discoveries - so this University Scholar is a huge validation, thanks to all nominators and Chemistry at Illinois Beckman Institute at Illinois MaterialsResearchLab news.illinois.edu/view/6367/1472…

Electron transport, a cellular process that enables photosynthesis and respiration, is enhanced in folded peptides. ⚡️🌿🫁 Single-molecule experiments, molecular dynamics simulations and quantum mechanics aided Beckman researchers in this discovery. 📰: bit.ly/4dgnie5
