It was a pleasure to be showcasing our research on novel #PermeablePavements with members of my Resilient Sustainable Infrastructure Group Group at the Royal Academy of Engineering Research Forum. #RAEngResearch #Engineering 💧⬜️🚶‍♂️

Deeply honoured to have received my Imperial College London President’s Medal for Excellence in Research at today’s Imperial Engineering graduation. Thank you to Hugh Brady, Mary Ryan, my research group Resilient Sustainable Infrastructure Group & my collaborators. Congrats to everyone graduating today! #OurImperial

Our #Belonging guest today is Dr Alalea Kia - Advanced Research Fellow in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering at Imperial College London Imperial Engineering. Please join us live at 12:30 pm. Follow the link: imperial-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/97621983750?…

I am very happy and humbled to share that I have been selected as the Royal Academy of Engineering Sir George Macfarlane Medal winner and have received a 2024 Young Engineer of the Year award. Thank you to Royal Academy of Engineering, Imperial College London, my research group Resilient Sustainable Infrastructure Group & my collaborators. #RAEngAwards

This week we announced Alalea as winner of our 2024 Sir George Macfarlane Medal. Find our how her sustainable concrete invention can help to alleviate impacts of climate change by absorbing storm water: raeng.org.uk/news/royal-aca…

Congratulations Alalea, who leads our Department's Resilient Sustainable Infrastructure Group group, on winning a Young Engineer of the Year award and receiving the prestigious Sir George Macfarlane Medal from @RaEngNews! 1/4

The invention helps to alleviate #ClimateChange and #urbanisation challenges, while reducing greenhouse emissions from the production of concrete pavement. Read more about Dr Kia's awards and research here: imperial.ac.uk/news/254714/dr… 4/4

Congratulations to #OurImperial researchers and one of our talented alumnus on being awarded top honours by Royal Academy of Engineering in their 2024 prize awards! 🎉 Well done to Professor Jason Hallett, Dr Alalea Kia and Dr Ruben Doyle ✨ ow.ly/5NIF50SyBVX

Congratulations all 🏆 and to Alalea on winning the Sir George Macfarlane Medal & Young Engineer of the Year award 2024 for developing permeable pavement Kiacrete, to mitigate the devastating impact of urban flooding from stormwater Royal Academy of Engineering #water imperial.ac.uk/news/254698/ro…

It was great to attend the 16th Int. Con. on Applied Energy in Niigata, Japan 🇯🇵 and share ideas with like minded researchers in this field. We presented two papers on our work. It was a fantastic experience immersing ourselves in Japanese culture 🎌🎎🍱🍣 for a couple of days.

We presented a poster & paper on our work with Omar Matar, Petit Materials Lab, Andrius Patapas & Jason Stafford at the IOM3’s 43rd Cement & Concrete Science Conference at Queen's University Belfast 🎓. Alperen's presentation received significant interest & we look forward to presenting more in the future.

Five early-career engineers received the RAEng Engineers Trust Young Engineer of the Year award this year, with the overall winner Alalea receiving the Sir George Macfarlane Medal for her work with Resilient Sustainable Infrastructure Group. Get to know her: raeng.org.uk/programmes-and… #RAEngAwards

In the latest episode of The Naked Scientists podcast, Alalea and other engineers discuss innovative solutions to climate change. She talks about developing Kiacrete, a permeable concrete that fights flooding and reduces emissions. Listen here: buff.ly/3ZvHzZA

Great to be interviewed among prominent scientists & engineers🧑‍🔬👷this week The Naked Scientists. Really enjoyed discussing the different ways engineers are tackling the climate crisis & how our Resilient Sustainable Infrastructure Group puddle-free pavement research can play a part in addressing this challenge.
