Photoelectrochemistry and 3D printing
We have a new paper out that was a real labor of love to publish. It took absolutely ages.

We started the work by asking: do different conductive 3D printing filaments respond to pretreatments in the same way?

I've seen folks talk about how "in four years" they'll be able to get back to their planned projects and I really don't think that's going to work out. People & projects losing funding now will not be able to hit pause and come back once funding is restored. Hard-won progress & capacity will be lost
I worry that not enough of a big deal is being made about how long-term the devastation of these budget cuts to our scientific and health agencies will be, beyond the absolute ruin they will cause in the acute period.

We're trying to get a better understanding of how 3D printed electrodes work.

We performed a comparative study of how several different filaments and pre-treatments impact the physical and electrochemical properties of these materials.

I'm happy it's out there!

The point of peer-review is the deep thinking after you have read & annotated the paper where you synthesise your thoughts into a coherent argument, combining them with all of your experience, to try to improve the article. This is where I often learn the most, and where the most value emerges.

Does anyone know if/how active NSF grants will be impacted by the spending freeze?
