Yesterday @anajsobrido.bsky.social and I hosted the UK Flow Battery Network symposium on at the Octagon in Queen Mary University London. Brilliant crowd of excellent researchers. I’m excited for what is next as #LongDurationEnergyStorage and alternative #BatteryEnergyStorageSystems take hold!

Did the cool boss thing today of coming into the lab for 5 mins and fixing the experiment that’s not worked for days of trying 😎 #chemsky

Congratulations to Sam for passing his PhD viva today! Fabricating as-bought Mxene electrodes for electrocatalysis. Thanks to our wonderful examiners @anajsobrido.bsky.social and @jghardylab.bsky.social.

Finally tidied my office books! Did someone say "fill in your timesheets"? #chemsky #procrastinating

First post so I’ll make it the beautiful sunrise photo I took this morning as we finally have #bluesky again #lancasteruk
