RESEARCH program

The Taylor group uses the tools of inorganic and organic synthesis to design novel materials, including:

We study these materials for applications in water purification and critical metal capture. Our research uses synthetic control over the structure of porous materials to achieve selectivity for desired guest molecules and to create pathways for fast ion transport. 

Students in the Taylor group receive extensive training in organic and inorganic synthesis as well as a wide range of materials characterization techniques. Prospective students interested in joining the research group are welcome to contact Prof. Taylor directly.
