Dr. Luke A. Baldwin named a 2025 Early Investigator by the American Chemical Society

WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio (AFRL) – Dr. Luke A. Baldwin, a research chemist at the Air Force Research Laboratory, or AFRL, has been named a 2025 Early Investigator by the American Chemical Society, or ACS, Division of Polymeric Materials: Science and Engineering, or PMSE. He is the first recipient from the Department of Defense to receive the honor. Baldwin will present his work at the ACS-PMSE Early Investigator Symposium during the ACS National Meeting in Washington, D.C., Aug. 18–24. Baldwin, who holds a doctorate from The Ohio State University, joined AFRL’s Materials and Manufacturing Directorate at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in 2017. His research has advanced dynamic covalent chemistry, particularly in developing processable two-dimensional polymers and high-performance covalent adaptable networks. His AI-driven approaches to material synthesis are expected to significantly impact future air and space operations. (U.S. Air Force photo / David Perkins)
