The work by our former PhD student Gianluca Gazzola during his visit at CP2M is now published in EPJ! We showed that dispersion polymerization of styrene with a small amount of P4VP macro-CTA generates uniform micron-sized polystyrene particles! sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

We are pleased to share a new article in collaboration with the group of Eric Dufresne at Cornell University. We showed how to grow thick and dense polymer brushes from lipid membranes by incorporating a polymerization initiator into lipid bilayers. 👇pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

Our recent paper will be highlighted in the backcover of one of the next @ChemicalScience issues. I thank my collaborators @DJKimLab @SimonDai0517 @BertonCesare, and MUR and @snsf_ch for having made this research possible. Here is the updated link: doi.org/10.1039/D4SC04833D

And while some were having fun in Warwick, others were presenting at the PhD forum @discunipd. Carlos gave a talk on structural dispersity of POEGMAs, Alberto had a poster on zwitterionic polymers, and Gian couldn't be (yet) in 2 places at the same time but his poster was there!

Edmondo and @FrancescaLoran2 also gave lectures. But more importantly we enjoyed inspiring lectures, very good beers, great time with friends that we only see at conferences, and even some clubbing 😶 couldn't ask for anything better! Though someone is talking about a dry July...
