DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nIn this talk I will discuss the molecular design o
 f organic structural materials that mimic the ability of living systems to
  protect\, report\, heal and even regenerate themselves in response to dam
 age\, with the goal of increasing lifetime\, safety and sustainability of 
 many manufactured items. I will emphasize recent developments in frontal r
 ing-opening metathesis polymerization (FROMP) to manufacture composites wi
 th minimal energy consumption. The talk will also present a workflow for t
 he design\, evaluation\, and development of new “mechanophores”\, a term t
 hat has come to mean a molecular unit that chemically responds in a select
 ive manner to a mechanical perturbation. Mechanophores are building blocks
  for the development of mechanoresponsive materials with protection and se
 nsing functions. The impact and challenges of introducing these capabiliti
 es in real-world situations will be mentioned.\n\n \n\nBio:\n\nJeffrey Moo
 re received his B.S. in chemistry (1984) and Ph.D. in materials science an
 d engineering with Samuel Stupp (1989)\, both from the University of Illin
 ois. He then went to Caltech as a National Science Foundation Postdoctoral
  Fellow working with Robert Grubbs. In 1990\, he joined the faculty at the
  University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and in 1993 returned to the Universit
 y of Illinois\, where he is currently a professor in the departments of Ch
 emistry and Materials Science and Engineering\, as well as the Stanley O. 
 Ikenberry Endowed Chair. Jeff is a member of the National Academy of Scien
 ces and a fellow of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences\, the American
  Association for the Advancement of Science and the American Chemical Soci
 ety (ACS)\; he has received the Campus Award for Excellence in Undergradua
 te Teaching and has been recognized as a “Faculty Ranked Excellent by thei
 r Students.” For 14 years he served as an associate editor for the Journal
  of American Chemical Society. In 2014\, he was selected as a Howard Hughe
 s Medical Institute Professor and in 2016 was chosen as the recipient for 
 the ACS Edward Leete Award in Organic Chemistry. He received the Royal Soc
 iety of Chemistry‘s Materials Chemistry Division 2018 Stephanie L. Kwolek 
 Award. He has published over 400 articles covering topics from technology 
 in the classroom to self-healing polymers\, mechanoresponsive materials an
 d shape-persistent macrocycles. He is currently serving as the Director of
  the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology at the Universi
 ty of Illinois.\n
