Check out this university feature of one of my research group members! – at Woodfin, NC
UNC Asheville senior Adam Wold is helping shape the future of solar energy. ☀️
As a 2025 McCullough Fellow, Adam works with Chemistry professor Jeromy Rech and local partner Sugar Hollow Solar to develop greener, flexible organic solar cells.

This summer has been incredibly productive thanks to the many hardworking students of the Rech Research Lab. It is crazy to see how big we've grown in just 2 years, and super excited to see what amazing thing come next! – at Asheville, NC
Huge congratulations to Adam for winning the grand prize in the undergraduate poster competition at the Appalachian Energy Summit! – at Woodfin, NC
Happy to share that I have been highlighted by @marquiswhoswho

The first meeting of #Scialog: Sustainable Minerals, Metals, and Materials comes to a close today with Fellows presenting proposals for collaborative cross-disciplinary projects. Thanks, good luck, and see you next year!
I am very excited and honored to be a part of this cohort! I am looking forward to the many collaborations and unique ideas on sustainability that will be generated from this opportunity. Stay tuned for great research to come!!
More than 50 early career Fellows have been selected for the 1st meeting of a 3-year #Scialog initiative to spark advances in the mining, design, manufacture, and disposal of materials needed to achieve a more sustainable and low-carbon energy system. bit.ly/3IKn6qf
Starting the new year off right with a brand new rotovap system from @IKAworldwide ! – at Asheville, NC
The very first instrument of the Rech Research Lab has arrived! Meet our new microwave reactor from @CEMcorporation. Undergraduate students will use this to synthesize new conjugated polymers for organic solar cells. – at Asheville, NC
Today marks my last day @Stanford, a perfect place for my postdoc. A huge thanks to @zhenanbao & all Bao group members for cultivating excellence in research! I have grown so much as a scientist, mentor, and teacher thanks to you - excited to apply this in my own lab @UncAvl! – at Stanford, CA
Our great collaborative paper was just selected by @MaterHoriz as the winner of this year's Outstanding Article Award! A huge thanks to @jaimemartinp81 for leading this work. Check out the full details and paper here: rsc.org/journals-books-datab…
Excited to share that I'll be joining @UncAvl as Assistant Professor of Chemistry this summer! I will also have an amazing group of undergrads in my research group working on making low cost, scalable, and recyclable conjugated polymers for solar cells.
We've shown that you can grow plants under semi-transparent solar cells, but is the produce the same?? Check out our new work in @FrontPlantSci - genomic analysis shows how lettuce actually has improved nutrient content when grown under OPVs!

Congrats to KRG Alum @J3ROMY_ on being named to @Forbes 30 under 30 (science) list!! #InspiringInnovation @LewisUniversity forbes.com/profile/jeromy-re…
I'm extremely excited & honored to have been selected for Forbes 30 Under 30! #ForbesUnder30
I have had such amazing mentors, friends, family, & peers which have contributed to my success and want to extend a huge thank you!

New work published in @WaterRes_J! We report a #Battery based on electrodialysis. Osmosis ruins the efficiency, so we explore a variety of ballast to stop osmosis. In the end, we show that we can make a battery using salt, sugar, & water! Check it out: authors.elsevier.com/c/1eSmg…
A great follow up publication is now available in Optics Express (@OpticaPubsGroup). Here we further explore how we can create photodetectors to mimic the amazing eyes of a mantis shrimp! Check it out here: osapublishing.org/oe/fulltex…
Also, another @AdvSciNews (Adv Funct Mater) article from collaboration with Dr. O'Connor's lab at NCSU! This is a great study which relates the transitions observed via DMA to chemical structure of common conjugated polymers used in organic electronics.
