MAFuMa News and Events

  • To unravel the mysteries of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles formation, researchers at 果冻影院 including Maximilian Besenhard, Nguyen Thanh and Asterios Gavriilidis teamed up with groups at Universidade de Lisboa, as well as Graz University of Technology and the Elettra Sincrotrone Triest, which are part of the Central European Research Infrastructure Consortium (CERIC). By uniting forces, between the MAFuMa project at 果冻影院 and the听听at CERIC (PI Aden Hodzic) it was possible to combine a flow chemistry approach using steady-state operation to locally 鈥渇reeze鈥� transient reaction states with CERICs multi-technique approach combining in-situ synchrotron XRD and SAXS. This combined effort provided for the very first time precious information for the early stages of IONPs synthesis, which has been used to demonstrate a robust continuous flow nanoparticle synthesis process.

  • The Royal Society Rosalind Franklin Award and Lecture 2019 is awarded to Professor Nguy峄卬 Th峄� Kim Thanh for her achievements in the field of nanomaterials. Professor Thanh is听awarded a medal and a gift of 拢1,000 at her lecture in October 2019. The Royal Society Rosalind Franklin Award and Lecture is made to an individual for an outstanding contribution to any area of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) and to support the promotion of women in STEM. The award is supported by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) and is named in honour of the biophysicist Rosalind Franklin, who made critical contributions to the understanding of the fine molecular structures of DNA.
