It was great to be at #ISMET9 together with part of my team!
Proud of the work they shared and the discussions we had with the wider community.
A warm thank you to Falk & Miriam, and their teams for organizing such an inspiring and well-run @ismetsociety.bsky.social conference.

Great seminar today at @lequiaudg.bsky.social
with Prof. Julio Andrés Pedraza Avella from Universidad Industrial de Santander (Colombia). He shared insights on ilmenite-based photocatalysts for water decontamination, H₂ production & CO₂ conversion. Thanks for the inspiring talk!
