Thank you @SumeetWalia4, @madhu_bhaskaran, and @sharath_sriram for your guidance throughout my PhD journey! I have learnt a lot during this time ☺️
Congratulations Dr @JamieMXLow @ResearchRMIT on the successful completion of her #PhD. Jamie's research focused on tuning the optoelectronic properties of #2DMaterials and their heterostructures for applications in light detection and photovoltaics. Well done!! #WomenInSTEM

This work won’t be possible without collaboration and support from @wenlongcheng @fun_materials @BaohuaJ @MNRF_RMIT @Nanomelb and #RMMF.
Like the chocolate spiral/roll 🍫 ? How about some gold ones 🥇 ? Don't worry, it's not costly as I cook it at micro/nanoscale 👨‍🍳 ! Excited to share that our #Chiral active #Helical structures are out in @AdvSciNews Advanced Materials Technologies! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Very proud to have our @fun_materials Career Reconnect Fellowships and @TMOS_ARC recruitment initiatives featured as part of @RMIT's @SciGenderEquity Cygnet Award! #WomenInSTEM @ResearchRMIT
Congratulations @RMIT! Proud to have been able to play a part of this by piloting Achievement Relative to Opportunity (ARtO) for recruitment for @fun_materials and @TMOS_ARC. This also enabled us to give out 3 Career Reconnect fellowships to jump start interrupted careers again.
