Hot hot hot ๐ฅตโ๏ธ๐ฅ off the press ๐๏ธ๐ฐ, new paper in Advanced Science ๐งฎ๐งช. In collabos with the Boyer group and others at UNSW, SiOC materials were generated by light-induced ๐ก 3D printing ๐จ๏ธ, wherein microstructure ๐ฌcould be controlled using polymer chemistry โ๏ธ. These materials have potential applications in next gen ceramics ๐งฑfor high temperature/mechanical property ๐ก๏ธ๐๏ธโโ๏ธapplications. Super neat stuff ๐๐ฉโ๐ฌ๐งโ๐ฌ๐จโ๐ฌ.

Great visit at the University of Adelaide this week ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ท๐๐. Thanks to our mates in the Centre for Materials in Energy and Catalysis ๐ฌ๐งฑโก๏ธ๐งช (and the future ARC CoE CSI ๐โผ๏ธ๐ฅผ๐ก) for hosting. Great to see the labs and campus, give a seminar, and come up with some nice collaborative ideas. Looking forward to future work together ๐๐๐ช. #collabs #adelaide #dontsleeponadelaide #sustainability #energyscience #campusartwork #cantstopwontstop #dataordie

Look at all that green ๐๐โ ๐ฒโ๏ธ๐ด๐ฟ๐๐ฆ๐ฉโป๏ธ๐๐ค๐. Just got done with a great visit to Scion in NZ ๐ณ๐ฟwith @yuweii77vv to discuss future collaborative plans on forestry biomass refining ๐ฒโก๏ธ๐งชโฝ๏ธ. Seminars were given ๐ฃ๏ธ, trees were seen ๐ฅพ, and all the geothermal activity ๐was impressive. Looking forward to reciprocal hosting of postdocs, students, and staff ๐๐๐โโ๏ธ๐๐โโ๏ธ. #collabs #green #treestreestrees #sustainability #hothotwater #biomass #forestry #nzforestry #nicewood #cantstopwontstop #dataordie

Congrats to @alex_mubingdiao for completing her summer research project at UNSW ๐ฉโ๐ฌ๐งโ๐ฌ๐จโ๐ฌ๐ฌ๐งช๐ง. Mubing joined our team from CityU ๐ ๐ญ๐ฐ, where she worked on the electroprocessing of engineered plant biomass. Very nice work! The efforts are part of a larger project between researchers at NREL ๐, Purdue ๐ and Uni Sao Paolo ๐ง๐ท, on engineered biomass for sustainable chemistry and fuels ๐ฑ๐ชด. #undergradresearch #summerresearch #itswinterhere #collabs #biomass #sustainability #biopolymer #sugarcane #poplarwood #echem #comebackanytime #seeyousoon #dataordie

New paper out in Chemistry of Materials โ๏ธ๐งฑ๐๐ช. Led by our wonderful and dapper collabs at ETH Zurich ๐ซ ๐จ๐ญ, GaOx catalyst grown by ALD โ๏ธ๐ฐ๐ฆ for isobutane dehydrogenation reactions. Catalyst were grown on SiO2 with precise thicknesses that modulate critical pentacoordinated Ga active sites. To study local structure of these materials RMC simulations โฎ๏ธ๐ฐ, which reveal and quantify the active sites. Awesome work by all @zuby57 .

Just finished an excellent trip to the DMV ๐ฌ๐ฆผ๐๏ธ and the mighty mighty Dayton OH ๐บ๐ทโ๏ธ๐พfor invited seminars ๐จโ๐ซ๐ง and collaborative meetings ๐๐คฉ at the Army ๐ฃ and Air Force ๐ฉ๏ธ Research Labs respectively. Great discussions on current and future projects, but no photos onsite โ๐ธโ!

And thatโs a wrap on another successful and amazing week at IMRC ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐งฑ๐ฌ๐ฉโ๐ซ๐งโ๐ซ๐จโ๐ซ. This year, the group was invited to both IOCD energy workshop and the Advanced Defense Materials Workshop ๐๏ธ๐๐โก๏ธ๐ฃ๐ฉ๏ธ, both muy excelente ๐. Jhair gave an poster on his thesis work and our colleague @ale.fraca was there aw well. Great science, great new collaborations, amazing food, and a room with a view. See yโall next year ๐. #imrc #iocd #sustainablechemistry #toomuchmezcal #phdresearch #phd #phdlife #scienceinmexico #gettingafterit #cantstopwontstop #dataordie

We gone fishing yall ๐ฃ๐ฃ๐ ๐๐ก!! Our recent work in Energy Advances, where we examine layered double hydroxides for uranium uptake from seawater, has been selected for a cover ๐๐บ๐คณ. Thanks again to @zuby57 for leading the charge on the efforts, and the amazing @ella_maru studios for helping us again with the cover. #cover #layereddoublehydroxides #uranium #dopantengineering #sustainability #dataordie
