PhD 43 in COMOC group. Congratulation to dr. Zhongliang Weng. One of the highlights is the finding that in some #COF the holes and electrons move orthogonally and that the donor-acceptor engineering is not so important. Just accepted in @J_A_C_S , stay tuned for the publication.

PhD number 39 in the COMOC group and the first #egyptian PhD I delivered. Wafaa Ahmed graduated on engineering a rare class of #MOF, the Bi-MOF. She focused on defect engineering and on bimetallic Ln,Bi MOFs for temperature sensing. Her PhD free on comoc.ugent.be

Waarom, op basis van welke beslissing door wie, is het schrijven van een opstel ooit uit het curriculum geschrapt? De erosie van de onderwijskwaliteit is ook en vooral het gevolg van talloze kleine beslissingen die cumulatief werken.
Wim Van den Broeck@wv01218 Oct 2025
Deze week vertelde mijn dochter dat ze destijds opstellen moest schrijven. Mijn kleindochter van 9: "Mama, wat is dat een opstel?" Mijn dochter licht het toe, en kleindochter reageert: "Oh, wat zou ik dat graag doen"! En dan schrikt men dat taalvaardigheid achteruit gaat.

What is going on at the suface of #COF when performing electrocatalysis? We investigated it in great depth. Diving into the deep. Read it here in #open_access in @JMaterChem A: pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…. How to tune a COF for your electrocatalytic reaction.
