Research Focus
Jeffrey Moore’s research group is dedicated to the professional development of next-generation scientists and educators who will impact the world with their skills and knowledge. The group’s research integrates ideas from physical organic chemistry and engineering with polymer synthesis to invent mechanically responsive materials. Motivated by the technological need for safer, longer-lasting materials, experiments are designed to understand the fundamental science of mechanochemical transduction, which in turn helps design polymers that produce chemical signals or undergo chemical reactions upon mechanical activation. He is a faculty member of the Beckman Institute and the Frederick Seitz Material Research Lab. Learn more about Jeffrey Moore’s lab.
