Thrilled to see this study in collab. with Guiry Group, led by Emer Farrell out in print! We use rectifying nanopipettes in aprotic solvent to detect trace metals in synthetic products in minutes at comparable sensitivity to ICP but with no sample prep!

Maud Menten, born #onthisday in 1879, was one of the 1st women in Canada to graduate from medical school
Together with Leonor Michaelis, and based on work by Victor Henri, she developed a theory of enzyme kinetics that is still known today as Henri-Michaelis-Menten kinetics
A very happy day, only possible due to the amazing people I get to work with University College Dublin. Huge thanks to my wonderful research group (past and present), my colleagues and many fantastic collaborators. So grateful for the many wonderful friendships forged through science. ๐ค
Former Exciton Science postdoc Jamie Laird is now making an impact at CSIRO.
This remarkable device was just one of the highlights from his very productive time with the Centre:
