Fantastic HEA conference so far! In particular a truly inspiring plenary talk this morning by Mitra Taheri! #HEA2023

A wonderful couple of days at #SSCG23. Thanks so much to @SscgR for inviting me to give a keynote talk - it was such an honour!

Very excited that the first episode of the Materials Unlocked podcast I've been working on comes out today!! Featuring the brilliant Kathy Christofidou and two of our fantastic students!!

As an avid podcast listener, I can't tell you how exciting (and strange) it is to see your own podcast appear in the app. Second episode out today!! Pleasure to talk to Iain Todd FREng and Dr Dave Bowden from UK Atomic Energy Authority with Frances Livera

It's here folks!! Time to talk about computational models in Materials science (including machine learning)! Check out the Materials Unlocked podcast!!

New episode of Materials Unlocked Podcast out now! I really enjoyed this one - Wunmi, Will and Yunus were such fun to talk with. Find out about how we go about making the samples!!

Want to know more about Additive Manufacture? Episode 5 of Materials Unlocked is out now!! It was such a pleasure to talk to the brilliant Dr Felicity Freeman Dr Felicity Freeman with Ben Jolly and Jacob Whittle!

Time to get a taste of my own medicine!! We've flipped the script and I'm in the hot seat, interviewed by Kathy Christofidou and Fran Synnott for Episode 6 of Materials Unlocked!

Fantastic first day at the #BCA2024 spring meeting. A particular highlight was the incredibly heartfelt Parkin Prize Lecture given by the fantastic Dr Alex Browne. BCA

Absolutely delighted to have been awarded the Physical Crystallography prize by the British Crystallographic Association (BCA)!! Many congratulations to the brilliant @HannaBostroem who was also awarded the prize.

Great way to kick off the final day of the #BCA24 and such a pleasure to get to chair the PCG Plenary given by Dr Silvia Ramos from University of Kent! Lots of exciting food for thought about XAS possibilities!!

It was really fun being on the podcast and talking about loads and loads of different types of sample testing! 👩🏼‍🔬🔬

Back in the normal hosting chair for this episode of Materials Unlocked. This time I got to talk about Sample Testing with Professor Russell Goodall and Lucy Farquhar (who, since recording, has submitted her PhD Thesis!! Congratulations!!).

📣 Calling all podcast listeners interested in material science and engineering "Materials unlocked" is a new podcast by #RAEngResearch Fellow Lewis Owen, which explores the work that happens at the Henry Royce Institute based at EngineeringSheffield. Listen here: sheffield.ac.uk/royce-institut…

And just like that - we've already reached the last episode of the current series of the Materials Unlocked Podcast!! We go out on a great episode though - talking with Richard Thackray and Durga Tilak about "The Big Picture", thinking about sustainability and recycling!

SPECIAL episode Materials Unlocked Podcast out today! It was such a privilege to talk to inspirational teacher BMaloney (STEM @ RHS from Royal Hospital School) and one of our brilliant undergraduates Annabel Lau about studying Materials Science at school and university!!

Attention all Physical Crystallographers!!! The 2024 Malvern Panalytical Thesis Prize for Physical Crystallography is now open for entries! Deadline - Friday 14th June. The application is incredibly simple, so don't miss out! For full details please see pcg-scmp.org/Prizes

It's not too late to apply for the Malvern Panalytical Thesis prize for Physical Crystallography 2024! Application is incredibly simple! Please share with anyone you know who has submitted their thesis in the last two years. Find out more details here: lnkd.in/eg5uSZYN

Great day yesterday teaching powder diffraction refinement! Always so exciting to get to work with people from across UK academia and industry.
