Thrilled to share my first-author postdoc paper at Penn published in JACS ! 🎉 We built molecular-scale mechanical metamaterials using chemistry tools.🧑‍🔬 Metal-organic frameworks (MOF) act as lattices where molecular bend, twist and rotation can be regulated by mechanical force.

Congratulations to Vagelos Institute Postdoctoral Fellow Kunyu Wang @kunyuwang.bsky.social with @pennchemistry.bsky.social and @pennmatsci.bsky.social on his selection as a 2025 RCSA Fellow by @rescorp.org

🎮 Ever thought about how playing Tetris, where you strategically stack blocks to maximize your score, mirrors the design of fluorescent materials? In our latest publication in JACS, we reveal a breakthrough inspired by the game🧩💡 Open access now👇👇👇 pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
