Collaborations
The Wuest Group actively seeks collaborators when outside skills are needed in our projects. In some cases, these skills are assimilated by the group and used independently in subsequent work. We are also happy to collaborate when our skills are needed by other groups. Our collaborators and partners come from both universities and industries. Recent academic collaborations, expertise involved, and outcomes are summarized below:
Graeme Day (University of Southampton)
The Day Group has used its computational expertise in predicting crystal structures to complement experimental studies in the Wuest Group (Cryst. Growth Des. 2023, 23, 273; J. Org. Chem. 2022, 87, 6680).
Ashlee Howarth (Concordia University)
The Howarth and Wuest Groups have worked together to study new porous hydrogen-bonded materials made by modular construction (Chem. Eur. J. 2020, 26, 7026).
Radu Iftimie (Université de Montréal)
Collaborations with the Iftimie Group have let the Wuest Group use advanced computational methods in its projects, particularly in developing redox-active organic materials for batteries (J. Org. Chem. 2023, 88, 16302; J. Org. Chem. 2022, 87, 15796; J. Org. Chem. 2022, 87, 7673; J. Org. Chem. 2021, 86, 14444).
Christian Pellerin (Université de Montréal)
Joint work with the Pellerin Group has allowed the Wuest Group to make more sophisticated use of spectroscopic methods in its projects, particularly in identifying solid forms (Cryst. Growth Des. 2023, 23, 7472).
Dominic Rochefort (Université de Montréal)
The Rochefort Group has provided electrochemical expertise in a collaboration targeting the development of new redox-active organic materials, and two graduate students are co-supervised (J. Org. Chem. 2022, 87, 7673).
Julian Zhu (Université de Montréal)
Collaboration of the Zhu and Wuest Groups has clarified how gelation and crystallization are related and led to co-supervision of a Ph. D. student (Langmuir 2022, 38, 5111; Cryst. Growth Des. 2022, 22, 3505; Cryst. Growth Des. 2022, 22, 643).
