Dr. Andy Thomas is an Assistant Professor at Texas A&M University, specializing in the field of Chemistry. His primary research objective is to develop new methods for investigating and harnessing the reactivity of highly unstable intermediates. His work focuses on improving the mechanistic understanding and developing new strategies that allow monitoring of fleeting intermediates and manipulation of reactivity. In addition to mechanism-driven methodology development, he is also engaged in the development of a new rapid multiple injection NMR (RMI-NMR) system that aims to monitor and control the reactivity of transient species. His representative areas of research include the development of new organic transformations and catalyst-transfer polymerization reactions. Dr. Thomas has an educational background that includes a B.S. in Chemistry from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, followed by an M.S. from the same institution, and a Ph.D. from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign. He was a NIH Postdoctoral Fellow at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 2017 to 2020.
