He is also a leader in building diversity\, equity\, and inclusion into institutional practices\, and has been president of OXIDE (Open Chemistry Collective in Diversity & Equity) for over a decade \n\n\n\nManaging Inclusive Excellence in Academia\n\n\n\nThe Open Chemistry Collaborative in Diversity Equity (OXIDE) is aimed at institutional reform so as to lower inequitable barriers hindering the success of faculty from diverse groups. We implement the “top-down” hypothesis by asserting that academic middle managers—namely\, department heads and chairs—held accountable for diversity and inclusion will make sustained and significant improvements in the representation and climate of their departments. The collaborative itself is a partnership with the department heads of research-active chemistry departments\, social scientists\, and other key stakeholders.  The lowering of these barriers increases the likelihood that individuals already in the tenure pipeline will have equitable chances of success and thereby leads to changes in faculty demographics closer to those of the broader U.S. population. The creation of a more equitable climate is also expected to encourage more disadvantaged students to enter academic careers in the chemical sciences. We will report on OXIDE’s approaches to increase awareness of effective policies and practices that decrease inequitable barriers and improve the diversity climate in research-active chemistry departments. We will discuss how these findings can inform the intentional management of inclusive excellence\, and why the lens of discipline-based diversity (DBDR) research is needed in chemistry.

Will they be benign or will they lead to deleterious downstream effects to our environment? Will those impacts change as the nanoparticles are transformed through their interaction with organisms or the environment? This presents a need for developing and benchmarking design principles for sustainable nanoparticles\, and it is being addressed\, in party\, by the Center for Sustainable Nanotechnology. [ACS Central Science 1\, 117 (2015)] Our group contributes to that effort by advancing theoretical and computational frameworks to bridge across molecular scale structure and motion\, and the behavior of nanoparticles in complex environments at macro and meso scales. [J. Phys. Chem. B 120\, 7297 (2016) and [ACS Central Science 7\, 1271 (2021)] The latter includes the contact of nanoparticles with model membranes and other constituents found in the cellular matrix. Our toolkit includes molecular dynamics\, enhanced sampling\, nonequilibrium statistical mechanics\, coarse-graining\, and machine learning. We will describe the spiral feedback between simulation and experiment that we are employing to design principles for creating devices optimized for high performance and minimal environmental impact.
