Christine is an REU student working on synthesizing and studying chemically recyclable polymers, and Masha is a Princeton EE student working on designing various devices for our 3D printing teams. We are excited to have them both join our lab for the summer!

Emily received the Princeton School of Engineering and Applied Science's Alfred Rheinstein Faculty Award. The award recognizes excellence in research and teaching for junior faculty. Congratulations Emily!

Kitty presented a poster on her senior thesis work in collaboration with Professor Paulino in CEE. Her thesis work used liquid crystal elastomers to thermally actuate an origami tube, along with theoretical simulations of the mechanics of the origami design. Congrats to Kitty for finishing a fantastic thesis!

The Davidson Lab is very proud to have two NSFGRFP recipients this year! Kirstin Bode received the award for their project using polyglyoxylates as a model system to study the kinetics and thermodynamics of depolymerization in self-immolative polymers. Emily Ostermann received the award for her project on the effect of network heterogeneity on…
