Yesterday was the last day for our PhD student, Evgenia, and the publication day of her two first-author @ACSCatalysis papers! 🎉 A fantastic way to finish a PhD tenure. Congratulations, Evgenia, and thank you for advancing #MXenes!

Great contributions by Runhui, Jens and Mathieu at the World Congress on Particle Technology in Osaka.
Congratulations to Evgenia on nailing her PhD defense and pushing the frontiers of our understanding of Mo MXenes: thanks to her work, their potential in catalytic applications has gotten a serious boost!

Great to see an interesting #MXene physics paper by Sergej Neb, Alexey Fedorov, and co-authors in @ScienceMagazine on January 1. A great start to the year for the @2dMxenes community! science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…
KH/C under H₂ selectively removes methyl groups from methylaromatics in preference to higher alkyls, opposite to classical methods. See the work by @puyangtian in @angew_chem for a fresh take on alkylaromatic chemistry: doi.org/10.1002/anie.2025219…

📣 Call for Abstracts. The 19th European Powder Diffraction Conference will take place in Crans-Montana, 🇨🇭, 23–26 June 2026.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

The last (published) PhD work in @GroupLese.
Combining decent in situ XAS (@DiamondLightSou ) and online ECMS (@SpectroInlets ), we broke the "quandary in activity" of Ir-based electrocatalysts and understand the evolved active phase under OER.

Studying the silica–alumina interface one #ALD cycle at a time: atomic mixing isolates Al³⁺ sites and tunes Lewis/Brønsted acidity. Solid-state NMR (via @PANACEA_NMR) + collab w/ @CoperetGroup reveal how Al–O–Si coordination shapes catalysis. 👉 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
Our traditional annual LESE group hike. This year in the Chur area. Very nice autumn atmosphere and lucky with the weather.
Congratulations to Annelies. She successfully defended her PhD today showing some wonderful work on MgO-based CO2 sorbents
Matthias and Puyang had the pleasure of representing LESE today at #fm25 of the SCS. We're looking forward to sharing their work more broadly once it's published. Stay tuned!
Our group is well represented at #Europacat 2025 in Trondheim, Norway, with Evgenia and Qin presenting their work!
In his final paper, Max takes a close look at the filling and regeneration of pores during CO2 capture and assesses the validity of the concept of critical product layer thickness sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Wonderful and insightful collaboration with the Comas Vives group on NiGa-based methanol synthesis catalysts
