Have you enjoyed IUPAC Macro2024 Conference-University of Warwick? Enjoyed the mixture of great science and social calendar? Well we think you will love RAPS! Our next meeting is Durham University 4-6th of September. Registration is open now! raps.org.uk/raps-meetings


Great to see this project from my time with O'Reilly group finally published. Wonderful to work with Stephen Fielden Marjolaine Thomas Alisha Miller and Aston collaborators Matt Derry and Paul Topham pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

We're busy preparing for the official AIME launch event next week! Also, the Aston Originals team have allowed Roslyn Bill and Matt Derry to return to the podcast studio! Stay tuned...


Last month the newly minted Dr Georgia Maitland (Georgia-Lucy Maitland) attended the Small-Angle Scattering Summer School 2024 at Københavns Uni University of Copenhagen Research. Georgia uses SAXS to characterise her nanoparticles dispersed in ionic liquid: doi.org/10.1039/D3SC06…
