Check out our recent work in @J_A_C_S, which expands our understanding of how atoms move to form #nanomaterials!

Excited to share our paper in @J_A_C_S! We found some spooky behavior across a distance: Atoms can move readily & asymmetrically between facets of #nanoparticles, mediating a distinct fundamental mode of growth pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…

Catching up with colleagues is the best - terrific to meet up today with @FrankGuLab @ChemEng_UofT and chat about all things remediation, and some project ideas that could see pulling in @UofTRobotics @mhatzopoulou @civmin with international partners - I love brainstorming 👍👍👍

Our paper (pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…) was recently highlighted on the Back Inside Cover of Nanoscale Horizons @nanoscale_rsc Check it out!

How do you assess supersaturation during nanocrystal growth? See Chen et al.’s paper, which introduces new #nanoscience capabilities & finds supersaturation dynamics more complex than previously known @FrankGuLab @paulchenz @AaronJC1 @ChemEng_UofT 👇
