As co-directors of the ā¦@acceleration_cā©ās Formulation Self-Driving Lab ā¦@FrankGuLabā© & I are thrilled to welcome Dr. Frantz Le Devedec as our first key hire in this important area. Frantz brings a wealth of formulation/product development experience to the community.
Weāre excited to announce that the Acceleration Consortium (@acceleration_c) at @UofT has received $200 million from the Canada First Research Excellence Fund (@TIPS_SPIIE)Ā to further our work revolutionizing materials and molecular #discovery. Learn more: bit.ly/AC-CFREF

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/jacā¦
Summary of this 5-year adventure ā¬ļø
Check out our latest paper in Advanced Materials Interfaces (@AdvSciNews) on the integration of nanoparticles into a #contactlens to produce stable and selective ocular light filters: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/ā¦
Congrats to @AaronJC1 @paulchenz & the rest of the team!

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 ššš

Iām really appreciative of my undergrad experience @WaterlooENG @WINano It was transformative, and Iām honoured to be highlighted as an alum! @SchmidtFellows
Nanotechnology Alumnus Paul Chen joins the 2022 class of Schmidt Science Fellows for his work in nanotechnology research! Through the support of this fellowship, Chen aims to develop approaches and discover materials that can improve healthcare globally. bit.ly/3Nfp7uu

Discover a Theoretical framework and experimental methodology to elucidate the supersaturation dynamics of nanocrystal growth by @paulchenz, @AaronJC1 and @FrankGuLab in this #NanoscaleHorizons communication! š pubs.rsc.org/en/content/artiā¦
Frank Gu Lab retweeted
Our paper (pubs.rsc.org/en/content/artiā¦) 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.ās paper, which introduces new #nanoscience capabilities & finds supersaturation dynamics more complex than previously known @FrankGuLab @paulchenz @AaronJC1 @ChemEng_UofT š

#WorldWaterDay is coming up on March 22 and we'll be sharing how our Department's engineering researchers here at #UofTEngineering are leading the way in innovative water research!š§
Check out our PhD studentās poster for the #RSCPoster conference, which describes work towards interpreting the phenomena underlying nanocrystal growth! #nanotechnology #chemistry
The 2022 #RSCPoster Twitter Conference is today!
Here's our recent work on developing a methodology to understand how supersaturation evolves as nanocrystals grow.
