Research Fellow in Inorganic Chemistry @JesusCollegeCam. Otherwise mostly knitting.
So much talk of AI. Committing, here and now, NEVER to use it in my academic work or my journalistic writing. I'm not even interested in finding out how to use it. Writing would lose all of its appeal to me if it didn't stem from personal creativity.
Fully funded PhD in our collaborative network on Quantum Engineering of 2D Materials in Birmingham Physics department with superstar Dr Matt Coak. A great opportunity for talented science and engineering graduates. CONTACT DIRECTLY as per details below! jobs.ac.uk/job/DMT667/phd…
I'm pleased to have been awarded Associate Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy! Good timing just before my last class of this term.
🎉 Congratulations to Xiaotian Zhang on his first paper! At the start of his PhD I think he hadn't ever done a Rietveld refinement before, and now he is a pro at multi-phase magnetic refinements! Read all about TbTaO4 here: doi.org/10.1039/D4MA01… @SianEDutton @montu_saxena
📢 Now online: mixed-anion & intercalation chemistry from my postdoc @OxfordChemistry @ClarkegroupOx @FaradayInst Again featuring @isisneutronmuon data, this time from GEM 💎 doi.org/10.1039/D5DT00…
📢 Happy to share our paper on low-T structure and magnetism of Ba3Tb(BO3)3, out now! Thank you to all coauthors, especially @SianEDutton. Work done at @DeptofPhysics, @psich_en and @isisneutronmuon ⚛ doi.org/10.1103/PhysRe…
Genuine question: Is there a creche at the England Vs Netherlands match tonight? With so many young fathers on the pitch and in the crowd, I'm just wondering who's looking after the kids? #EURO2024 #NEDENG
How I published 1 first-author paper during 2.5 years of my post-doc: - I collected all my data and learned how to become a scientist. - I read like a normal human being. - I write like a normal human being. Seems to be paying off.
How I published 13 first-author papers during my 2.5 year post-doc: - All the data were already collected - 5 papers were literature reviews - I read incredibly fast - I write even faster
Congratulations to our Master's students Lily,Georgia, Annabel and Ella for submitting your theses! You were invaluable group members for the past year. Good luck with your future! @OxfordChemistry
Attention all Physical Crystallographers!!! The 2024 Malvern Panalytical Thesis Prize for Physical Crystallography is now open for entries! Deadline - Friday 14th June. The application is incredibly simple, so don't miss out! For full details please see pcg-scmp.org/Prizes
Latest paper from the group and Souvik’s first as the main author! A great collaboration with @SunitaDey16 @SuardEmmanuelle @ILLGrenoble published in @ChemMater describing a new metamagnetic material synthesised by reductive Na intercalation! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…
Check out this article about our previous DPhil student Penny Hyde which was published in the San Francisco examiner and discusses her work on intercalation and future aspirations for battery research! 🔋👩🔬 sfexaminer.com/marketplace/bu…
My version! Tesco had run out of the normal (not orange) mini eggs...

@Liam_nc's work on calculating van vleck modes in angular distorted octahedra is out now! @DeptofPhysics doi.org/10.1107/S16005…
Did I start a trend with the program cover design last year, or was the Christmas perovskite already a feature before 2022? Either way, great to see! 🎄
Brussel sprout perovskites? It can only be the SSCG Christmas Meeting
