We're v proud but will really miss PhD student Cassandre Le Galliard who is starting a new role as Product Manager - Sustainable ReadyMix Concrete @AggregateUK! Her PhD was part of DuRSAAM & completed with John Provis & Brant Walkley as supervisors. Congratulations Cassandre!


A big shout out to Charley Nevin, Ava M Sjoberg & Brant Walkley from Cements@Sheffield & SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield), who held the excellent Encapsulants Industry Research Day. This included talks from Sellafield Ltd, United Kingdom National Nuclear Laboratory & students whose research focuses on waste encapsulants. Well done to all!


It was wonderful to host our colleagues, collaborators, & funders from Sellafield Ltd United Kingdom National Nuclear Laboratory Nuclear Decommissioning Authority for this event in CBESheffield - 10 highly experienced experts from the nuclear industry visited our SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield) & Cements@Sheffield researchers to discuss their research! 🌍👩🔬☢️

It's #InternationalWomenInEngineeringDay! This should always be celebrated, but is a chance to reflect on the invaluable work of female colleagues in Cements@Sheffield & beyond. We’re also proud of Ava M Sjoberg, who's speaking about her work for the EngineeringSheffield INWED programme today


Very proud of Ava M Sjoberg who today delivered an excellent talk at The University of Sheffield International Women in Engineering Day event #INWED. Big shout out to all of my female colleagues in SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield) CBESheffield for the excellent work that you do!


We might be bragging, but we think we have some of the best PhD students around! Amazing work Ava M Sjoberg on your talk for #INWED23 👏


SMASH members Micael, Charley Nevin, and Ava M Sjoberg hosted a Pride Mega Fab(ulous) coffee morning with the rest of the GRAND committee for staff and students in the department this morning. We had such a good time and already looking forward to the next GRAND event!


BREAKING: BRANT’S GRANT! A UK and Japan partnership sees The University of Sheffield awarded a share of £1 million to address challenges and drive enhancements of nuclear waste disposal at Sellafield, UK, and Fukushima, Japan. sheffield.ac.uk/news/uk-and-ja… Brant Walkley


🏆 We’ve been named Daily Mail University of the Year for Student Experience. This award is based on the University’s National Student Survey (NSS) results and we're particularly pleased that it recognises commitment to social inclusion. Read more below👇 sheffield.ac.uk/news/universit…


During the coffee break we had a poster session when our second year #GranthamScholars presented their PhD research which all relates to sustainability. There were some great posters presented across all different departments! SMASH (Sustainable Materials @ Sheffield) Jake Muhammad Luthfi Ava M Sjoberg
