What the Weck Group is all about

The Weck group at New York University is a highly interdisciplinary research group at the intersection of organic chemistry, catalysis, and polymer and materials science. We are motivated by Nature's design principles that rely on weak and reversible interactions between building blocks to introduce function and diversity. The main focus of the research carried out in the Weck group is to combine these non-covalent strategies with living polymerization methods to create polymers for the next generation of materials applications including supported catalysis, opto-electronic materials, viscoelastic solids, surface modifications, drug delivery and tissue engineering.
