Alexa Easley, Klarman Postdoctoral Fellow in chemistry and chemical biology in the College of Arts and Sciences (A&S), has been honored by the American Chemical Society (ACS) Division of Polymeric Material Science and Engineering (PMSE) for outstanding polymer research.
As a Klarman Fellow, Easley is continuing to investigate next-generation materials for organic-based batteries by studying the structure-property relationship for synthetic redox-active macromolecules and their electronic mobility, working with faculty host Brett Fors, professor of chemistry and chemical biology (A&S).
Easley will be honored, along with her mentor, Jodie Lutkenhaus, professor of chemical engineering at Texas A&M University, at the ACS National Meeting in San Francisco in August.
