Dr. Jim Hutchison and his research group (a diverse group of synthetic chemists, analytical chemists, and applied physicists) design and make new functional materials. His specific research interests include preparation and study of nanoscale materials, surfaces, and polymers, for applications such as nanoelectronics, biocompatibility, and environmental remediation. He played key roles in developing the UO's nation-leading program in "green" (environmentally benign) organic chemistry, and designing the Materials Science Institute Graduate Internship Program in Semiconductor Processing.
