An interview with Sergiy Minko, the Egon Matijevic Chaired
Professor of Chemistry and Biomolecular Science at Clarkson
University, is featured in the January ACS Nano podcast.
Minko was
interviewed about a paper he cowrote with Research Professor
Mikhail Motornov, graduate student Roman Sheparovych and
Professor Evgeny Katz. The article, "Chemical Gating with
Nanostructured Responsive Polymer Brushes: Mixed Brush
versus Homopolymer Brush," published in the January edition
of ACS Nano. |

ACS Nano is an international forum for comprehensive
articles on synthesis, assembly, characterization, theory,
and simulation of nanostructures, nanobiotechnology,
nanofabrication, methods and tools for nanoscience and
nanotechnology, and self- and directed-assembly. The journal
serves researchers at the interfaces of chemistry, biology,
materials science, physics, and engineering.
Minko's research
and expertise in materials science focuses on the areas of
smart/responsive polymer materials, smart colloids,
nanostructured thin polymer films, formation of nanowires
and nanoparticles, adhesion, wetting, adsorption
regulations, and single molecule devices.
Clarkson University crosses the boundaries of disciplines,
nations and cultures in order for discovery, engineering
innovation and enterprise to come together. As a result,
faculty and graduates grasp the full impact of their
calling, direct their research to the world's pressing
issues and lead with confidence and distinction. One in
seven alumni is already a CEO or other senior executive.
Located in Potsdam, N.Y., just outside the six-million-acre
Adirondack Park, Clarkson is home to 3, 000 students
preparing for rewarding careers through 50 rigorous programs
of study in engineering, business, arts, science, and health
sciences, as well as unparalleled outdoor recreation and
life experiences beyond the classroom. |
