The Merg lab attended the AACGE-West Conference at Fallen Leaf Lake! Great talks and great location!
Research
Developing self-assembly methods to arrange individual molecules and atoms precisely in space and time represents a powerful approach for creating new materials that can unlock future technology. This emerging concept of "growing materials" from the bottom-up provides the intellectual underpinning...
Andrea D. Merg
Andre grew up in South Carolina and attended Winthrop University where he received his B.S. degree in Chemistry in 2010. The following year he moved north to join the laboratory of Prof. Nathaniel Rosi at the University of Pittsburgh where he worked on the development of peptide-based methods for...
