  1. New Mexico Highlands UniversityMorehouse CollegeGeorgia Institute of TechnologyLight-Matter Interactions: Theory and Applications (LMITA) Photodynamic therapy (PDT) combines a drug (called a photosensitizer) with a specific type of light to kill cancer cells. The general goal of LMITA Thrust 1 to find efficient synthetic route to obtain E,E-3,5-bis(thienylidene)piperid-4-ones with donor substituents, that will be tested as materials for photodynamic therapy as photosensitizer. Undergraduate student Rachel Lucero and graduate student Evgenia Leonova working on the synthetic project under supervision of Professors Timofeeva and Martinez. Graph demonstrating significant two-photon activity of synthesized molecules with a long chain of conjugation. PARTNERSHIP FOR RESEARCH AND EDUCATION IN MATERIALS NSF/DMR 0934212
