The Teator Research Lab
Welcome to the Teator Research Lab at the University of Kansas!
Our research is focused on diversifying the types of structures accessible to us through controlled polymerization and in turn developing new, functional materials. We’re working on developing new polymerizations, new monomers, and new post-functionalization methods. Research in the Teator Lab will include components physical organic chemistry, small-molecule synthesis, polymer synthesis, and polymer physics. Check back soon for more updates as we get started!
