DESCRIPTION:The Phil and Penny Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Im
 pact presents their Distinguished Lecture Series: "Synthetic Strategies to
  Afford Natural Product-Based Polymer Materials: Impacts on Sustainability
 \, Life\, Health and the Environment" with Karen Wooley\, W.T. Doherty-Wel
 ch Chair in Chemistry and Distinguished Professor at Texas A&M University.
 \n\nThis presentation will highlight synthetic strategies for the developm
 ent of polymers\, block polymers and crosslinked network materials\, which
  can be produced by relatively simple approaches from glucose and can be m
 ade to exhibit a range of properties. Target materials are designed for po
 tential applications in diverse areas\, from medicine\, e.g.\, as nanother
 apeutics or bioresorbable hemostatic agents\, to the environment\, e.g.\, 
 as pollutant capture agents\, climate-resilient hydrogel materials or natu
 rally-degradable plastics. Examples will highlight contributions that poly
 mer chemistry can make toward bulk technological materials that are capabl
 e of impacting global needs\, such as water\, food\, energy and health\, a
 nd the grand challenges that must be solved in the coming decade.\n\nRegis
 tration is required. The talk will also be streamed live online.
