Devon Shipp

Devon Shipp is Professor of Chemistry and Director of the Center for Advanced Materials Processing (CAMP) at Clarkson University. His research develops novel polymer chemistries for applications in nanotechnology and biomedicine, with focus on radical polymerizations, nanocomposites, and degradable polymers.

Shipp's innovations include thiol-ene polymerizations for surface-eroding polyanhydrides, methods for functional polymer particle synthesis, and radical-mediated polymerization techniques. His work has applications in drug delivery, shape-memory materials, and sustainable colloids. Honors include the Polymer Chemistry Pioneering Investigator award (2021) and Fulbright Scholarship (2015).

He holds patents for elastomeric polyanhydrides and biomedical devices, with research supported by NSF and industry partners. Current projects focus on dynamic covalent polymers, methacrylic anhydride copolymers, and functional nanoparticles.
