Charl visited the US last week to briefly meet up with UoB undergraduate students on the year-in-industry degree programme. He used this opportunity to stop in Los Angeles and visit Ric Kaner’s group at UCLA (and gave a talk in Ric’s research group meeting), before moving on to DuPont’s central research site in Wilmington (close to Philadelphia) and Argonne National Laboratory (close to Chicago)! The photo was taken in a small town called Newcastle, close to Wilmington.
Last Wednesday, Bristol Chemistry held the first in a series of Materials Chemistry symposiums. The afternoon featured two external speakers (Sharon Cooper, Durham and Andrew Houlton, Newcastle) and five post-graduate researchers from the School of Chemistry including Tom. The talks were all of an extremely high standard and stimulated a lot of scientific discussion!
Charl has been invited to visit and give a seminar at the Research Centre for Microsystems and Nanotechnology (RCMN), Kaunas University of Technology, Kaunas, Lithuania. This visit falls within the FP7 Nanomat programme (of which Bristol and Kaunas are partners).
