During the early days of my Ph.D., I worked in tandem with Dr. Keira Culley at the University of Colorado-Boulder, as part of her thesis work in the Gin group. She was interested in creating complex polymer structures that could aid in catalysis. I was quite skilled in identifying the order those polymer structures contained, so we worked together on a couple of occasions. The paper entitled “Sulfonic-acid-based lyotropic bicontinuous cubic polymer network for molecular-size-selective heterogeneous catalysis” was the first such example of us working together. Dr. Culley is an excellent scientist, and I was very lucky to have done my Ph.D. work around the same time as her.
