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!

We’re excited to offer a 3.5 year UK/EU PhD studentship on the topic of pre-nucleation in the synthesis of metal–organic frameworks, starting October 2020!
Please see the above link for more information and contact Hamish for any other enquiries.
We’re really excited to offer a PhD studentship for 2020 joint with Diamond Light Source, the UK’s national synchrotron facility!
The project is funded for 4 years and the student will spend 2 years at Birmingham, 2 years at Diamond, where they will investigate how the structures of functional materials – including metal–organic frameworks and molecular ferroelectrics – change with applied electric fields.
The student will gain cutting-edge skills in materials synthesis, time-resolved single crystal X-ray diffraction and physical property measurement.
