We received the 2012 CU Innovative Seed Grant (ISG). It will support our new efforts in the synthesis/processing of novel polymer nanocomposites.

Our paper on the characteristics of capillary instability of non-axisymmetric polymer stripes has been published on Macromolecules. Congralations to Zheng for publishing his first paper! 

Welcome Lindsey Tubbs joining our group, as part of the You're@CU undergraduate program. Lindsey will work with Maruf on membrane technologies.

Congratulations to Lewis for receiving the NIST-MSE fellowship! Lewis is working to establish a strong collaboration with the National Institute of Standards and Technology. He will collaborate with Dr. Donna Hurley and Dr. Jason Killgore on

Zhen's first-author paper has been published on the premier interdisciplinary journal Advanced Materials. His study pioneers the study on pattern-memorizing polymer surface. Congratulations to Zhen! 

Congratulations to Zhen for receiving Teets Family Fellowship, provided by an endowment to support PhD students researching in microsystems and nanosystems at CU. Zhen is one of the two receipients of this very selective merit-based fellowship at

Maruf attended the Annual Meeting of the North American Membrane Society in Las Vegas. He presented his recent study on "Probing the evolution of glass transition temperature of the barrier layer on reverse osmosis membrane upon chlorine induced
