Very sad news about the passing of Nobel laureate professor John goodenough. A true giant of solid state chemistry who made advances in a huge range of areas, from magnetism to batteries, and will be deeply missed for his infectious enthusiasm for science.
This afternoon @pengcheng_jing and @Rubymorris2043 both presented their (first!) posters at the SSCG at the University of Cambridge. Pengcheng’s poster was on cathode materials for magnesium-ion batteries and Ruby’s was on phase transitions in Ca-Mg-H systems. Very proud!@SscgR
Today we say farewell to @nfloresg7 He is leaving to work on characterisation of Pd NPs for directed catalysis using INS. We will miss him, with his contagious (but niche) sense of humour, his willingness to always help others, and his overall fabulousness. Now sashay, away.
Our masters student @Rubymorris2043 is currently at day 2 of the #TNTschool2022 on Neutron Diffraction with the Società Italiana di Spettroscopia Neutronica in Valle Aurina! It’s an absolutely beautiful place with some incredible views to look at in between all the lectures !
On the way to #NMSUM (my first ever academic conference!!) with @nfloresg7. Tomorrow he will be doing a talk on how neutrons and muons can be utilised to understand Li-ion conductors! @Prof_DHGregory@UofGChem
