This one will become a classic! Great job from Dimitrios! Big congrats!@DFraggedakis

Will be really fun!

Another big day in the battery community, and to top it off Prof. Sakamoto was featured in a few articles, starting off with one from WIRED pointing out knowledge gaps in mechanical behavior of lithium metal: wired.com/story/quantums… (1/3) #battchat

Visited this place 11.5 years ago on a very windy day. Can hardly stand near the edge. The view was breathtaking and spectacular.

Beautiful campus!
