Miriam will be attending the Precision Polymer Meeting (P²M) taking place from May 26^th to 29^th in Lacanau, France. [Read more]

Polymer Chemistry has named Miriam one of the “Emerging Investigators 2015”. In this context we were invited to contribute a full paper, which appeared online today. We congratulate Bettina et al. to the paper: “Towards a General Understanding of Hydrothermal Polymerization of Polyimides”. [Read more]

Miriam answers the question “Why is glas breaking so easily?” asked by a four-year old girl in the Austrian magazine “NEWS”. The short answer can be found here. [Read more]

Miriam will deliver a talk on the 12^th of May at the DVSPM 2015 in Gmunden, Austria. Her talk will be entitled  “Hydrothermal polymerization: towards highly crystalline high- performance polymers”. [Read more]

We are very happy that three students joined our team for their BSc theses. Thomas Roiss (left) will be working on high-performance polymers via  preorganized precursors, and Sophia Steinbacher (middle) and Heribert Gerstner (right) will work on hydrothermal polymerization during their time in the UnterlassLab. We wish you all the best of luck with your projects! [Read more]
