However, this applied science is no longer exclusive to one laboratory and has evolved into an exciting multidisciplinary and collaborative quest of our material environment. This talk touches upon some of the interdisciplinary collaborative research projects ranging from a viable proof of chemically modified alginate microcapsules as controlled drug delivery mediums, to search for structure activity relationships on rectification ratios of self-assembled monolayers of benzalkylsilanes on SiO2 substrate. Projects on use of chemically modified biopolymers for environmental chemistry and organometallic oligomers/polymers with potential optoelectronic applications will also be highlighted.en-USPostersUniversity of Minnesota DuluthSeminarsDepartment of Chemistry and BiochemistryOther
