Jen takes part in I’m a Scientist – Get me out of here!
For the past month, Jen has been taking part in an outreach activity called I’m a Scientist! This project aims to connect school students with real life scientists across a variety of fields, so students can ask their important questions to the scientists and find out about careers, different areas of science or just whatContinue reading “Jen takes part in I’m a Scientist – Get me out of here!”
Aly Presents at the Materials Chemistry Seminar
Within the Chemistry department at the University of Birmingham there is a new seminar series which has just started on the subject of Materials Chemistry. This is to link the wide variety of materials chemists across the department, so we can understand what work is happening in other groups, and maybe get advice or ideasContinue reading “Aly Presents at the Materials Chemistry Seminar”

Aly starts working at ISIS
This has been a very exciting week for Aly as he moved down to Wantage to start work at the ISIS Neutron and Muon Source! Aly will be joining his co-supervisor Goran Nilsen for the last year and a half of his PhD. Aly will be partly working at the deuteration facility.
Tristan Attends the RSC Electron Diffraction Course
This month Tristan attended the RSC electron diffraction course,a 5 day course comprised of the set up, usage and solving of electron diffraction data collected via TEM microscope. This course was comprehensive course and had plenty of resources to ensure that Tristan will be able perform electron diffraction experiments in the future if necessary. HighlightsContinue reading “Tristan Attends the RSC Electron Diffraction Course”
Kate Presents at IOP Magnetism
Kate gave an invited (virtual) talk at the IOP Magnetism conference this month. The programme covered topics such as topological materials, 2D materials, thin films and correlated electron systems. Kate presented in the latter session and discussed her muon study on the Zn-barlowite series of QSL candidates. The conference also included a public lecture entitledContinue reading “Kate Presents at IOP Magnetism”
Aly and Lucy Present at the 2021 BCA Spring Meeting
This year, the BCA spring meeting was held virtually for the first time. The planning and organizing committees, however, did an excellent job putting together a variety of excellent talks spanning a rich range of topics. On the first day, following the YCG meeting, Aly presented his recently published work on the Ti(III) diamond andContinue reading “Aly and Lucy Present at the 2021 BCA Spring Meeting”
