The focus of this research is on the design and synthesis of "universal" polymer backbones for use in simultaneous multi-recognition of functional groups. The central theme is to produce a polymer backbone that can be modified as required by the attachment of binding functionalities of interest. Monomers bearing various transition metals and chelating groups, as well as functional groups bearing hydrogen bond donor and acceptors with various patterns will be polymerized to produce polymers capable of subsequent modification. In terms of broader impact, the modified polymers are expected to be useful for a wide range of biological, optical and electronic applications. The focus of the educational effort will be the development and introduction of a new campus-wide interdisciplinary laboratory course for undergraduates. With this CAREER award, the Organic and Macromolecular Chemistry Program is supporting the research and educational efforts of Dr. Marcus M. Weck in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Professor Weck will focus his research on the production of polymers capable of modification to suit various purposes in biology, optics or electronics. The educational component of the award will center on the development of a new laboratory course designed to introduce college students from many different disciplines to the uses of polymers, and a workshop to introduce polymer chemistry to faculty at undergraduate institutions.

本研究的重点是设计和合成“通用”的聚合物骨架用于同时多识别功能团。 中心主题是生产可以根据需要通过连接感兴趣的结合官能团进行修饰的聚合物主链。 带有各种过渡金属和螯合基团的单体，以及带有具有各种图案的氢键供体和受体的官能团将被聚合以产生能够随后改性的聚合物。 就更广泛的影响而言，改性聚合物预计可用于广泛的生物、光学和电子应用。 教育工作的重点将是为本科生开发和引进一门新的校园跨学科实验室课程。 有了这个职业奖，有机和高分子化学计划是支持博士马库斯M。Weck在格鲁吉亚理工学院化学和生物化学系工作。 Weck教授将专注于生产能够进行修改以适应生物学，光学或电子学中各种用途的聚合物。 该奖项的教育部分将集中在一个新的实验室课程的开发，旨在向来自许多不同学科的大学生介绍聚合物的用途，以及一个向本科院校教师介绍聚合物化学的研讨会。
