A sad & shocking news! I don’t tweet often, but I felt such an urge to tweet today. It was @sirfrasersays brought me to tweeter and advocate science. The stories of his generosity and support for young are endless. Just his last days, he was still writing support letters for me.
With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Sir Fraser Stoddart, Nobel Laureate and cherished member of @NorthwesternU. His groundbreaking contributions transformed the field of #chemistry and inspired countless scientists worldwide.

Great thanks to the world economic forum for featuring our work! A way to turn plastic trash into soap youtu.be/3qS9l9T1NEM?si=Lulh… via @YouTube
Thirteen years later, everything has changed, and yet nothing has changed. So fortunate to know both of you and look forward to the years to come.

A new way to recycle plastics! Check out this discovery from a team led by MII's Guoliang "Greg" Liu, an associate professor of chemistry in the Virginia Tech College of Science. This work was recently published in the popular journal Science!

Guoliang "Greg" Liu talks to @fox5dc about a novel idea: turning used plastic - bags, jugs, one-use food containers - into soap. 🫧fox5dc.com/video/1262753 @VTChemDept @VTresearch
Super proud to host talented Casandrah Catterton as our REU this summer! I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw her self-designed and a dozen hand-made logos for our lab! And my group self-organized a farewell party for her. The Liu group always surprises me in such a great way!
After the @GordonConf polymers, I have finally lost my COVID virgin. Although I was wearing a mask most of the time, those who had contact may want to check out too.

@GregLiu_VT of @VT_Science has created a formula to convert "hard-to-recycle" materials into liquid chemicals and upcycle them into high-value chemicals!

Congratulations Eric! Selectee of the Roundtable “Make a Difference” Scholarship! Inspiring story and work. @VTChemDept @GregLiu_VT
Another year of radish harvest time. A radish from my garden greets its same breed friend from a grocery store.
A pleasantly surprising email from Radio New Zealand telling me that they covered our new article about polystyrene recycling in their recent news. Thank you, RNZ and Kathryn and Laurie! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.22…

Ein Forschungsteam um @GregLiu_VT (@virginia_tech) will mit einem chemischen Verfahren den #Kunststoff Polystyrol („Styropor“) upcyceln. Polystyrol ist der am viertmeisten hergestellte Kunststoff in Deutschland und ist darüber hinaus schlecht recycelbar. epaper.tagesspiegel.de/artic…
My dear colleague brought me to this tweet. After years of work, the findings are finally in the literature.
