Congratulations to Leo Zasada on his recent paper in JACS! We show that discrete metal–organic macrocycles retain many of the cool properties of conductive 2D MOFs but with enhanced processability. Many thanks to collaborators, including the Luscombe and Seidler labs. Check it out here!

Welcome to our new undergraduate, Audrey Hill! We are excited to have you join us!
The lab has received an NSF CAREER award! This will fund our work on metal–organic framework-supported bifunctional and bimetallic catalysts, as well as our outreach programs for K–12, college, and the older adult population!
Graduate students Phuong Le and Devin Rollins officially join the Xiao lab. Welcome to the group!
We are excited to welcome undergraduate Jonathan, who started earlier this fall, as well as our autumn rotation students Andrei and Robert (October) and Emily and Phuong (November). Our group meetings are open to all interested first year students, and are held on Mondays at 4PM in the 4th floor CHB conference room (see here for the group meeting schedule).
We are excited to welcome three new students this summer, incoming graduate student Devin Rollins, undergraduate EJ Brannan, and summer REU student Dina Chehada. Welcome to the group!
Jack’s paper on the use of thermolabile crosslinkers to template multicomponent MOF pores has been published in JACS! Thank you to the ACS PRF for funding this work, and congrats Jack!
Congratulations to Ashlyn and Kathleen, who were both awarded CEI Graduate Fellowships! This fellowship funds exceptional researchers from departments across UW to apply their talents to clean energy research projects, participate in outreach activities, and develop professional skills.
Exciting news – the lab has received a DOE Early Career award! This grant will fund the lab’s research on π–d conjugated molecules and materials.
Congratulations to My Do for leading our lab’s first paper! She synthesized a beautiful series of anisotropic copper cages that we’re excited to continue exploring in the future. Check it out here: https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.inorgchem.1c00466.
