Tristan Clemons

Tristan Clemons is an Assistant Professor in the School of Polymer Science and Engineering at the University of Southern Mississippi. His research integrates polymer chemistry, supramolecular assembly, and biomaterials for therapeutic applications.

Current projects focus on antioxidant polymers, peptide-polymer hybrids, photoresponsive materials, and nanoscale drug delivery systems. The Clemons Lab develops biomimetic materials for applications in cancer therapy, neural regeneration, antiviral strategies, and tissue engineering.

Recent publications demonstrate innovations in functional polymer design, including dynamic biomolecular condensates, amyloid-based composites, and supramolecular antiviral agents. Materials are characterized for mechanical, biological, and therapeutic properties.
