The meat of my graduate research involved using chemically-sensitive field effect transistors (ChemFETs) to characterize host-guest interactions of hydrophobic receptors with aqueous anions. Excited to have had my first full paper published in @rsc.org Chem Sci #chemsky

Benchmarking the placement of hydrosulfide in the Hofmeister series using a bambus[6]uril-based ChemFET sensor
Hydrosulfide (HS−) is the conjugate base of gasotransmitter hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and is a physiologically-relevant small molecule of great interest in the anion sensing community. However, selective...

Supramolecular methods: utilising ChemFETs to evaluate aqueous anion affinity of hydrophobic receptors
The host–guest interaction and affinity of hydrophobic receptors towards aqueous anions can be evaluated by incorporating a receptor into a polymeric membrane and applying these membranes to FET-ba...
