Dr. Matthew Wiebe
Matthew earned his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Canada, under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Ian Manners. Following Ian’s passing in 2023, he was co-supervised by Prof. Dr. Jeremy Wulff. His doctoral research focused on the synthesis and reactivity of transient aminoboranes and phosphinoboranes, with particular emphasis on the synthesis of polyphosphinoboranes. As an NSERC Postdoctoral Fellow, Matthew is now expanding his research focus from fully inorganic polymeric systems to the incorporation of inorganic units into heteroaromatic materials for the development of next-generation organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Outside the lab, Matthew enjoys food, video games, art galleries, hiking, wine-tasting, and pinball. If you see him around, feel free to say hi! Accepted Peer-Reviewed Publications:
