 CT: Polypeptoids are non-natural\, sequence specific polymers that offer t
 he opportunity to probe the effect of monomer sequence\, charge\, chiralit
 y\, and chain shape on self-assembly and surface properties.  Although exa
 mples of hierarchical polypeptide structures abound in nature\, the de nov
 o design of such systems for specific functions is still a major challenge
 .  The polypeptoid system with its much simplified set of inter and intram
 olecular interactions provides an opportunity to explore this design space
  with more tractable systems.  In this talk\, I will discuss experimental 
 efforts to design peptoid structures with controlled chain shape on a fund
 amental level as well as use of this platform to design highly functional 
 materials ranging from marine anti-fouling coatings to next-generation EUV
  lithography photoresists.
