We are sure proud to announce that @PrincetonChem’s Leslie Schoop and Marissa Weichman are among the scientists selected to receive prestigious #PECASE awards, announced by @WhiteHouse this week!
Congratulations to Leslie and Marissa. Story: bit.ly/40xfa5q

We are thrilled to share that @MarissaWeichman has received the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) for our group's ongoing work in gas- and solution-phase molecular polaritons! Congratulations Marissa! @PrincetonChemwhitehouse.gov/ostp/news-upd…
How do you build a lab out of thin air? @PrincetonChem professors Marissa Weichman, Jose Roque, and Alice Kunin talk about their experiences and what they wish they had known going in.
Enjoy our first story of 2025 with these exceptional junior profs: bit.ly/4fJhwlX@

Standing room only for pchem – who knew?! @TheWeichmanLab revives physical chemistry chalktalks beginning with a presentation by Nidhi Kaul of the Scholes lab on Förster resonance energy transfer.
Chalktalks will pick up again in January. Stay tuned!

A podcast on polymers? With thanks to the @Stache_Lab, you bet! Hosts Clotilde and Lejla launched the first episode last week for a general audience with an interest in all things plastic. Congratulations to the Lab!

Not a bad office for a couple of grad students/postdocs to work out of, yes?

Exciting news - we’re starting a podcast! Ever wonder what exactly plastics are, or why they’re so hard to recycle, but don’t know where to start? We have just the podcast for you! Coming soon to a podcast streaming service near you 🤫🎙️
Our new Perspective is on the cover of @JChemPhys! Check out our approach to gas-phase molecular polaritons and exploration of future systems for electronic and vibrational strong coupling: doi.org/10.1063/5.0220077 Congrats to Jane on her first first-author paper!
Such a delight to have our work recognized in this way, particularly alongside one of my favorite people @barak_hirshberg! Thanks so much to @JChemPhys for all you do to promote early career folks and @TheWeichmanLab for getting these crazy experiments off the ground 🙌🏼
We've had an awesome summer with visiting undergrad Kierra Forthman from @cgbischak's lab at @UtahChemistry! Congratulations on a great poster presentation and best of luck in your senior year! 🥳
We are in Strasbourg for #EMRS and excited to be part of the symposium for polaritonics! Marissa's talk is Tuesday at 8:45 and Jane's poster is tomorrow 16:30-18:30. Come say hi!
New @arxiv manuscript out!! Check out our thoughts on gas-phase polaritons and the molecular systems we're considering for next steps. Prospects for isomerization, dissociation, and bimolecular reactions included! Electronic strong coupling, too! 🪞⛽️🪞 doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2405.…
"These are big, fundamental questions about where we come from and what kind of universe we live in."
A @PrincetonChem team is using its expertise in novel spectroscopies to expand our understanding of the composition of the universe: bit.ly/3IQIx8X

Interstellar chemistry! Million-year timescales! High-powered lasers! Through a new @NSF grant, the @TheWeichmanLab combines astrochemistry and spectroscopy to identify molecules in space. Chemistry at its coolest.
