We are delighted to belatedly celebrate winning the Best Image Award at 17MCM in Portoroz, Slovenia. The image of the magnetic domains in a meteorite was acquired in
@UofG_MCMP using 4DSTEM DPC. Congrats to winners @DrTrev_Almeida, Emily Wackan, Josh Einsle and Stephen McVitie!🥳

It was wonderful to see PhD student @AurysSilinga from the @UofG_MCMP present his work on 3D printing magnetic nanostructures and reconstructing their magnetisation at #MMC2025.

Beautiful magnetic imaging and models everywhere 🧲 🤩

[MCMP Glasgow @UofG_MCMP]

Several @UofG_MCMP members Donald MacLaren, @AurysSilinga and Keir Edgar have arrived at #MMC2025 and looking forward to a fun week talking all things microscopy! 🔬 🥳

[MCMP Glasgow @UofG_MCMP]

We are thrilled to share our latest paper from @MicroscopySA where @UofG_MCMP members and colleagues from @fz_juelich reconstruct the 3D magnetization distribution in a cobalt nanowire. The paper can be found here: https://t.co/XNmclNgVv9

We also made the cover! 🤩 🧲 🔬

We are delighted to share our new paper from @ACSPublications, where @UofG_MCMP's @DrTrev_Almeida and collaborators demonstrate the stabilization of skyrmions and skyrmioniums in curved magnetic nanocaps 🔬 🧲 🥳

The field sure has taken a turn!! 😄

@UofG_MCMP members @ingliscs and Ethan Lowe had a fantastic few days visiting Lewis Giannelli at @ILLGrenoble. Taking in all the Grenoble sunshine whilst firing neutrons at their samples ☀️ 🔬 😀

[MCMP Glasgow @UofG_MCMP]

The @UofG_MCMP made the most of Friday's sunshine and continued to celebrate @ColinKirkbride passing his PhD Viva and to welcome Ethan Lowe. Drinks in the sun and some tasty Japanese food at the celebratory meal afterwards - what more could you want! ☀️ 🍻 🍜

[MCMP Glasgow @UofG_MCMP]

Massive congratulations to @UofG_MCMP student @ColinKirkbride who passed his PhD viva today! 🥳🥳

Many thanks to the exam committee: Prof Andy Pratt, Dr David Boldrin and convenor Dr Mark Yeung.

Colin undertook his @CDT_PIADS PhD on chiral magnets with Prof Stephen McVitie 🧲

[MCMP Glasgow @UofG_MCMP]

We are delighted to welcome a new Research Associate Ethan Lowe to @UofG_MCMP, who will be working with Dr David Boldrin on Quantum Spin Liquids. To celebrate Ethan's arrival we even updated our group photo! 🔥

Last night the @UofG_MCMP group had a farewell dinner to say 'goodbye for now' to PhD student Lewis Giannelli, who is off to Grenoble, France, for the 2nd half of his PhD. Au revoir et à bientôt!! 🔬 🏔️ ✈️ 🥳

[MCMP Glasgow @UofG_MCMP]

The mmc-EMAG 2025 abstract submission deadline has been extended to Feb 28th - it's not too late to add your research highlights to what promises to be an awesome meeting! See here for more details:

[MCMP Glasgow @UofG_MCMP]

Excited to see that abstract submission and registration are now open for mmc2025! See you in Manchester?

[MCMP Glasgow @UofG_MCMP]

It was fantastic to welcome @thermofisher and @QDetectors to discuss plans for our next generation MagTEM2 instrument. Looking forward to sharing many oversized dosas in the future! 🔬 🧲

[MCMP Glasgow @UofG_MCMP]

Welcome to Glasgow, @Paragraf_Gr ! We had a productive project meeting to discuss progress on our @innovateuk project to scale-up the production of #graphene -based microelectronics https://t.co/ZRl8aZY8R4

[MCMP Glasgow @UofG_MCMP]

We are pleased to share a new paper from @UofG_MCMP's @DrTrev_Almeida on magnetic nanospheres decorated with gold nanoparticles for hyperthermia treatment 🔬🧲🔥
