Gregg Wilmes
Education
Polymer, Organic Chemistry
- BS, Notre Dame, 1997
- Ph.D., Stanford, 2004
Interests and Expertise
My research interests involve the synthesis and study of polymeric materials. We are currently focused on developing syntheses of block copolymers under mild conditions and studying the reversible self-assembly of those materials in solution through the use of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
