Incredible investigation by @TaylerHebner and team (@bruceekirk @AnsethGroup Chris Bowman and Ben Fairbanks)! Love how a weird and unexpected materials characterization became a tremendous discovery!
Thrilled to share the first publication from my postdoc with @Benoit_Lab5 ! 🎉 We show thiol-maleimide adducts cleave with radicals and use this mechanism to spatiotemporally pattern degradation in hydrogels formed by Michael addition! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
