Undergraduates joining research groups is valuable for everyone involved! christophershuck.godaddysites.com/essays/f/shoul…

This newly published article provides a very detailed and up-to-date description of Ti3C2Tx synthesis. It can guide your #MXene research. @2dMxenes @drexelnano @CE_Shuck rdcu.be/dBMwK

This article gives a ste-by-step procedure to produce high quality Ti3C2Tx #MXene rdcu.be/dBMwK This protocol leads to high-conductivity, shelf-stable MXene

There is still time to register for our #MXene course, happening from February 19-23! Learn how to make the highest-quality MXenes, and their wide range of applications from batteries to biotech. See more information and register at research.coe.drexel.edu/.../nanomat...…

Modern dissemination of science is no longer fully based on meritorious science. One can game the system to publish articles that aren't properly reviewed/vetted. Herein, I discuss a few major structural problems I've observed in scientific publishing. christophershuck.godaddysites.com/essays/f/publi…

Are the large-data machine learning approaches accurate for new materials discovery? Herein, I discuss this question, focusing on the recent Nature article and provide direct validation of their predictions against currently existing MAX phase chemistries: christophershuck.godaddysites.com/essays/f/is-de…

The #MXene family continues to expand. Read our recent article demonstrating that M5X4 MXenes are a family of materials; we added two novel M5X4 chemistries here. Led by rising star undergraduate Marley Downes. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10… @acsnano

How can you make better #MXenes? Remember that MXenes are materials, not chemicals. These ares ynthesis factors that influence MXene properties link.springer.com/article/10.155… @Materials_MRS

Navigating the academic job market is difficult, because of the information asymmetry. These are experiences during the last 3 years trying to get a TT position. I tried to be comprehensive with my mistakes and improvement. #academia christophershuck.godaddysites.com/f/the-faculty-…

Glad to share our latest article which will be included in the special issue of Small Methods on #MXenes 📄📍onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.10… @gogotsi1 @YGogotsi @yilmazerlab @DBedognetti @CE_Shuck

The M5AX4 MAX Phase and M5X4Tx #MXene continues to grow! We demonstrate the successful synthesis or two new members of this family. chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi… @drexelnano @gogotsi1 @MyShekhirev

I had a pleasure meeting with Daniel in @FrankPallone 's office on behalf of Materials Research Society to discuss funding for basic science research. I'm proud of NJ's commitment to science and our future workforce.

Wow! Our article "4D printing of #MXene hydrogels for high-efficiency pseudocapacitive energy storage" is among the #NCOMTop25 most read Chemistry and Materials Sciences articles in @NatureComms from 2022! Check out the article here: nature.com/articles/s4146…

It was an absolute pleasure to work with @mohitsaraf3 We published a few very nice article together: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100… onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… …mistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100… and more, future collaborations and exchanges! @FulbrightPrgrm

Congratulations to @drexelnano researcher Marley Downes, BS/MS materials science and engineering ’24, on being named a Barry Goldwater Scholar! Way to go, Marley! drexel.edu/engineering/ne…

We are shouting a huge congratulations to undergraduate lab assistant, Marley Downes, who was named a 2023 Barry Goldwater Scholar! Supported by her mentors, @CE_Shuck , @YGogotsi , and @MarkAnayee, Marley’s research focus is the synthesis and characterization of new #MXenes.

Cheers to @Kang90772055 @DanzhenZhang Akash Singh @taniahryhorchuk @CE_Shuck Teng Zhang Lingyi Bi Bernard McBride Vivek Shenoy & @YGogotsi on the publication of the first analysis of IR properties of a wide range of #MXenes in @MaterialsToday ! 👏👏👏 bit.ly/3zlKTIh

V4C3Tx #MXene as a precursor to an ultra-active catalyst for oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of alcohols, outperforming current catalysts (>order of magnitude). pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… @ACSPublications @ACS_AMI @drexelnano @YGogotsi

Highly recommend checking out this article if you are interested in #MXene synthesis, especially new MXenes. Very nice study from @liu_universitet nature.com/articles/s4169…

In this @NatureComms paper we demonstrate a 4D printing technology for manufacturing #MXene hydrogels with customizable geometries, 3D porous architectures, large specific surface areas, high electrical conductivities, and good mechanical properties. nature.com/articles/s4146…
