Our new Progress Report titled "Slippery Lubricant-Infused Surfaces: Properties and Emerging Applications" can be found online here. It is a "trans-generational" effort with co-authors including current (Dorothea Paulssen) and former members (Junsheng Li and Erica Ueda) of the Pavel Levkin lab!

During his PhD Farid published 5 papers (2 more to follow) and presented work at 9 international conferences. Congratulations on a successful PhD defense!

Welcome!

In this study, inspired by a strong binding ability of natural polyphenols found in plants, we used three different macrocyclic polyphenols, known as resorcin[4]arenes, to modify the surface of different substrates by simple dip-coating into the dilute solution of these compounds.
