We organised the Bham MOFluidics Workshop on Monday. It's great to see many colleagues and early-career researchers (ECR) interested in the science and applications of pressurised confined water in Metal-Organic Frameworks (#MOF), across different disciplines and career stages.

PhD opening on in-situ characterisation under pressure, fully funded for home fee students, closing in a week findaphd.com/phds/project/d…

This week we had the second PhD from the group: Haixia passed his viva on Wednesday. Thank @TimEasun @TanLab2 for examining and Dr Zhong-Nan Wang for chairing the viva. This panel reminds me how interdisciplinary our research is. #chemistry #mechanics #materials

Hebin passed his PhD viva today, the first PhD from the group, congratulations @HebinJiang2023 Many thanks @AndreaLaybourn for coming over, Dr Raya AL-Dadah for organising everything, and @Mingchao_Liu for chairing the viva.

The latest issue of ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces (@ACS_AMI) is live! On the  cover: “#Stable Compressible #Liquids Made of Hierarchical #MOF #Nanocrystals”

The paper is open access and all datasets in the manuscript and SI can be downloaded for free doi.org/10.6084/m9.fig… We are always open to collaboration, suggestion, or request for further information, feel free to email us! Thanks #UKRIFLF for supporting our research.

The concept of compressible liquid follows our earlier collaboration work with Stuart James Group advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad… More about energy absorption for such systems can be found in an earlier work nature.com/articles/s4156…

Pleased to share a recent work featured on the Front Cover of @ACS_AMI where we discovered that creating hydrophilic mesopores on #MOF nanocrystals can make a more stable water suspension as a compressible liquid pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… @ACSPublications #MyACSCover

By popular demand, registration for the #UKPorMat2025 conference has been EXTENDED by one week, to 23rd May. Don't leave it until then though, get your registration completed! @RSC_PorMat ukpormat.com Check out our fantastic invited speakers:

Getting excited for this now, it's going to be a lot of fun and a lot of good science:

📢 We are hiring!! 3 year PDRA available in our group on self-optimising flow microwave platforms for #MOFs At Leeds Uni, UK, with me & @RichBourne1981. ⏰ Deadline: 8th June. #flowchemistry #Automation Info & to apply: jobs.leeds.ac.uk/vacancy.aspx?r…

We are excited to announce our line-up of plenary speakers for the 8th UKPorMat conference to be held at @unibirmingham To start we have Professor Neil McKeown from the University of Edinburgh @EdinburghUni @EdinburghChem neilmckeownedinburgh.wordpress.com
