I'm thrilled to share that I have accepted the Vice Chancellor's Postdoctoral Research Fellow position at RMIT University 🥳 ! I'm eager to contribute to impactful research and advance knowledge at RMIT University in this next chapter of my academic journey😊. RMIT University RMIT Research

Proud to support your work, Pooria Lesani! Your The Fulbright Program collab with the Koch Institute at MIT will create new hope for millions of #cancer patients around the globe💝

A great big welcome to the KI, Pooria!

Our paper is LIVE in Advanced Photonics Research, Wiley! We've decoded the mystery behind making red-emissive carbon dots! Deep imaging inside pig skin? Nailed it! 🐷 When science vibes with art, you get CARBON DOTS!🔴 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad… RMIT University University of Sydney Sydney Nano

Behind the fume hood, where an ECR’s wonders take shape ! 🔬 Elevate your magic game with the likes of Fulbright Australia & Koch Institute at MIT & RMIT University 💪🏼🪄 #MagicInScience #Fulbright #Fulbrighter #MIT #Kochinstitute

Honoured to visit Guilderland High School in beautiful Albany, NY. Shared my journey from undergrad to a Fulbright Fellow at MIT & VC fellow at RMIT University. Thanks to Fulbright Australia & the dedicated Guilderland staff. Excited for these young talents & hope to see them at MIT/RMIT soon.

Congratulations to Paula Hammond on winning the 2024 Benjamin Franklin Medal in Chemistry! Hammond is honored for her "innovative methods to create novel materials one molecular layer at a time." fi.edu/en/franklin-in…

Grateful for the insightful Fulbright Visiting Scholar Workshop on Scientific Manuscript Publishing & Peer Reviews! Thanks to the The Fulbright Program, Fulbright Australia, and the Institute of International Education for organizing such an informative event! #fulbright #publication

Excited to share our latest #research on using #Osteopontin to rejuvenate aging stem cells, opening doors for better tissue regeneration, especially in older adults. Read more: link.springer.com/article/10.100… #RegenerativeMedicine #AntiSenescence #Osteopontin #Aging #Innovation

I'm Guest Editing for the Applied Sciences Journal (MDPI) on "Advances in Nanoparticle-Based Optical Sensors for Biomedical Applications." Colleagues, submit your work! Let's advance biomedical research! More info: mdpi.com/journal/applsc… Please RT to spread the word!

Our latest study, in collaboration with Kyoto University, has been published in Scientific Reports, nature! We've found that tweaking the surface charge of silicon quantum dots greatly enhances #cytokine production, essential for #immunedefence. Read Here: nature.com/articles/s4159…

🌟 Celebrating 30 Years at the Hammond Lab, Koch Institute at MIT! 🌟 Honored to present my work and celebrate our collective achievements with current and past lab members at the 30th Anniversary of Hammond Lab! Huge thanks to Paula and to Fulbright Australia for making this all happen!

🔥 Just published in ACS Publications - Applied Materials & Interfaces!🔥 We made a super tiny, shiny pH-sensing probe that quickly travels into tumours and lights up if pH changes, even a little. Curious to know more? pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10… #carbondots #pHsensing #tumormodel

Excited to share our #publication on a fluorescent sensor array using #MachineLearning for pH monitoring! Our #nanomaterial-based carbon dots enable accurate pH sensing (3–10) for biomedical & environmental use. 🔗 Read more: doi.org/10.1039/D4SD00… #carbondot #nanomedicine

Grateful to see our work featured as a Top Viewed Article in Advanced Photonics Research (Wiley)! We explored red-emissive two-photon carbon dots for deep-tissue & real-time cellular imaging. Huge thanks to my students, collaborators & mentors! 🔗 doi.org/10.1002/adpr.2…
