Super fun day - such great hosting at the Politecnico di Milano by Prof. Pierangelo Metrangolo that I forgot to get a picture. Also had a blast with touring the ultrafast labs with Profs. Giulio Cerullo and Eva Pogna. And of course I’ve got luca catalano “handling” me 🤣 #THzDoesItBetter

Our IRES program would be nothing without an epic team of partners and PIs. UNIMORE Profs. Piccini and Catalano (luca catalano); Università di Bologna Prof. Salzillo; Università di Parma Prof. Mazzeo. Great science, mentorship, and fun.

Cheers to Will Stoll, who successfully advanced to candidacy in University of Rochester Chemistry Department today, while studying abroad Bologna, Italy. We are very very proud of all of his accomplishments, and the support of his committee (Agnes E Thorarinsdottir and Dave McCamant). Great things coming University of Rochester Università di Bologna 🇺🇸🇮🇹

Don’t sleep on Jin Research Group! Crushing the solid-state dynamics game. Can’t wait to see you soon!

🎙 Meet Michael Ruggiero, invited speaker at ICCOSS 2025! He uses terahertz and low-frequency Raman spectroscopy to explore structure–dynamics relationships in molecular solids. 📍 Playa del Carmen | 🗓 July 13–18 📩 [email protected]

Just published in J. Mater. Chem. family - #THz spectroscopy identifies domains where *static* structural disorder promotes diagnostic phonons. Another example highlighting how sensitive THz methods are to subtle structural effects! luca catalano University of Rochester University of Rochester Chemistry Department pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Art…

Can’t wait!

🎙 Meet luca catalano, invited speaker at ICCOSS 2025! He studies how structure and dynamics shape the properties of molecular crystals for electronics, optics, and pharma. 📍 Playa del Carmen | 🗓 July 13–18 📩 [email protected]

Really pleased to welcome a new member to the gang! Johanna Kölbel (Koelbel) joins University of Rochester Chemistry Department today by way of Brown University and Cambridge University, bringing immense expertise in #THz spectroscopy. Stay tuned for exciting developments! #THzDoesItBetter University of Rochester #PewPew

Excited to be at Brown University this week to teach a week-long high school course on terahertz science and technology! Looking forward to an exciting week full of demonstrations and quantum mechanics and lasers.

Playing with new toys in Germany Rigaku Rigaku Oxford Diffraction. Looking forward to seeing some cool new crystal structures! #3DED University of Rochester University of Rochester Chemistry Department

Check out our most recent article in J. Mater. Chem. family C, which was just featured on the journal front cover! Great work to the team, collaborative between University of Rochester University of Rochester Chemistry Department, RIKEN, and UNIMORE luca catalano. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Group members Will Stoll and Johanna Kölbel crushed their talks at #IRMMW2025 today in Helsinki. Great work team! University of Rochester University of Rochester Chemistry Department

Congrats to luca catalano on winning the Italian Crystallographic Societies “Nardelli Prize” for his “important results in a research developed by using crystallographic methods”. Very well deserved! UNIMORE University of Rochester

This paper is very cool - might be the coolest result of my career. We bent a flexible crystal, did some low-frequency confocal spectroscopy, and directly visualized intermolecular strain spectroscopically.
