Check our recent review paper, that we discuss intercalation in 2D materials, we look into the atomic and intrinsic effects of intercalation, followed by their in situ studies. We expect fast progress of intercalation in 2D materials in the coming decades.link.springer.com/10.1038/s41570…

I feel extremely humbled to receive this grant. It is a special honor to be on a list of awardees that includes so many famous professors in Hong Kong! I would like to thank my advisors, collaborators, students over the years who have made this possible!

@JemimaBurden @sarahhaigh_mcr @RoyalMicroSoc @NHM_London Dear Prof. Sarah, very nice to meet you in the 2D TMDs conferences, hope we can have collaboration in the future.

Really enjoying the @RoyalMicroSoc #emuk2023 meeting, and learning lots about #electronmicroscopy in the physical sciences. Including @sarahhaigh_mcr RMS EM lecture.

@deep29jariwala @acsnano @ChenXD_NTU_Sg @PennEngineers @Penn @ESEatPenn Congratulations, Prof Deep, well deserved!

Very pleased with this award. Thanks @acsnano and @ChenXD_NTU_Sg for your kind words. ACS Nano remains our favorite journal to publish rapidly, with broad visibility. Looking forward to the award symposium at Fall meeting @PennEngineers @Penn @ESEatPenn pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…
