Carborane-Containing Polymers as Advanced Materials
Published 2025Carboranes are electron-delocalized, icosahedral heteroborane clusters composed of 2 carbon and 10 boron atoms. Their σ-aromaticity, hydrophobicity, lipophilicity, and exceptional chemical, thermal, and metabolic stability ...Thesis -
Exploring Chemical Space with Boron
Published 2025Chemical space, in its vastness, affords nearly unlimited opportunities to develop novel molecules. However, to explore these uncharted regions of chemical space, there is a need for structurally unique molecules with ...Thesis -
Predictors of Healing in Foot Ulceration
Published 2025The role of dietary intake, micronutrient deficiencies, cognitive function, and smoking in foot ulceration remains inadequately understood. The aim of this thesis is to explore whether certain variables can predict healing ...Thesis -
