Dr. Trevor Plint

Research Associate


Trevor Plint received his Ph.D in Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry at The University of Toronto. His love of organic electronics has led him through a range of projects, including materials synthesis, device design, and software development. Following his doctoral work, he co-founded Amber Molecular, a startup focused on developing light emitting materials for display applications. Trevor joined the LRG to design and commission custom analytical equipment, along with whatever skunkworks the PI will let him get away with. When not immersed in side projects, Trevor loves travel, cooking, and making jewelry.
