From Zero to Lithium: My First Steps into the Solid-State Battery World
This post is a reflection on my first year as PhD student: the learning curve, the lab work, and everything in between.
Performing my first on-sky tests (in Hawaii at Keck Telescope)
As an adaptive optics (AO) researcher for ground-based telescopes, having the possibility to perform tests on-sky was a major accomplishment for me. These tests occurred in Hawaii in the Keck I telescope…
Rising Seas and What Isotopes have to do with it
Earth, 20 000 years ago: the last glacial maximum. The air was about 5°C cooler than today, the sea level more than 100 meters lower. Creatures could walk from Siberia to Alaska across a land bridge…
Novel Method for the Analysis of Single Bio-Molecular Aggregation
Many diseases arise from abnormal molecular aggregation and uncontrolled biomolecular growth or division. Some of the most challenging examples include Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, and angiocardiopathies. Detecting these processes at their earliest stages is critical, as it opens the door to earlier diagnosis and personalised treatments before clinical symptoms appear. One promising route lies in monitoring […]
