Formation, Organisation & Response of Materials
A warm welcome to Suzie Hughes, who joins us this month to start her PhD looking into MOFs and hybrid perovskites for sensing. She got a 1st from Bath University and has experience from her Masters project on adsorption and release using flexible MOFs. We’re really excited for this science and to work with Suzie over the next few years!!
This month Joe Atherton joins us to start his PhD project on pre-nucleation in MOF formation, and Vicky Akroyd and Matt Bradberry begin their MSci fourth year projects with us. Welcome Joe, Vicky and Matt!
This month we are joined by Harry Lloyd and Aaron Chambers, who will be starting two exciting, collaborative PhD projects in the group!
Harry is studying time-resolved dynamics of framework materials under electric fields on a joint Diamond Light Source PhD studentship. He’ll be co-supervised by Dr Lucy Saunders and Dr Mark Warren from Diamond, where he’ll spend two years getting hands-on at Beamline I19-1!
Aaron is studying the formation and processing of MOF nanoparticle composites as part of a collaboration initiative between the University of Birmingham and BAM, the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing, Berlin. He’ll be co-supervised by Dr Brian Pauw from BAM, where he’ll visit to perform 3-D printing and in-depth structural characterisation.
We’re excited to offer a UK/EU PhD studentship for October 2020 on the topic of microstructure in molecular framework alloys!
