Shively maintains an active research group broadly focused in the area of synthetic chemistry. Currently, students are working on three different projects in the areas of organic, inorganic and organometallic chemistry with applications to environmental and medicinal chemistry. One project involves the synthesis of ionic liquids with reduced toxicity to aquatic organisms.

He is also developing new methodologies to synthesize polycyclic molecules using organo-iron chemistry. In a project done in collaboration with Dr. Diana Barko, his students are preparing metal complexes that stabilize the G-quadruplex structure of DNA, the ultimate goal of their application being a chemotherapeutic agent.

His former students, many of whom have gone on to doctoral programs, have presented their work at local and national meetings of the American Chemical Society.

Shively's doctorate was in the area of organometallic chemistry under the direction of Anthony Pearson. Prior to joining the faculty at 九色视频in 2006, he was an associate professor of chemistry at Wilson College.
