| Abstract | With the support of the Macromolecular, Supramolecular, and Nanochemistry Program in the Division of Chemistry, Dr. Noah Burns and Dr. Yan Xia of Stanford University will investigate a new class of environmentally friendly polymers derived from molecules that form naturally in DNA when exposed to sunlight. This research will explore how light and heat can transform these molecules, known as pyrimidinones, between two different forms. This process should result in profound changes to the physical |
