I am extremely grateful to announce that I have received the ERC Starting Grant! This is a huge step and it means exciting opportunities for my group in the near future.
đź“Ł The ERC Starting Grant call results are out!
Find out which early-career researchers will receive funding, what they will be investigating, where they will be based... plus lots of other #ERCStG facts & figures for 2025!

Paper #3 from the group! A close collaboration with @IIISchulzIII.
We image thermal transport down to monolayer nanocrystal superlattices. In that regime ballistic phonon transport becomes important.

On the front cover of @NanoLetters.
Demonstrating how both charge carriers and heat contribute to pump-probe spectroscopy of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystal films.

Very excited for the 2nd paper from my group to be out in @NanoLetters ! We demonstrate how both charge carriers and heat contribute to pump-probe spectroscopy of nanocrystal films. doi.org/10.1021/acs.nanolett…

Very excited to share the first publication of my independent group! Now in @acsnano, we control, model and visualize anisotropic heat flow in supercrystals self-assembled from colloidal nanocrystals. Big thanks to the many collaborators! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
📢 Postdoc position open: looking for someone to work on pump-probe spectroscopy and photoelectrodes at Sorbonne in Paris, starting autumn ! Especially looking for someone motivated to apply for the Marie Curie Postdoc Fellowship. DM or email me (link on website in bio)
📢Opening for a funded PhD position via @iMAT_SorbUniv in Paris! Looking for a student interested in spatiotemporal optical #spectroscopy of #exciton transport and #selfassembly of #nanocrystals. See link for project and contact details. w3.insp.upmc.fr/en/insp-thes…
Nous proposons un projet de #thèse en #spectroscopie optique spatio-temporelle des #nanomatériaux à l’@insp_umr7588! L’équipe vous préparera au concours de l’école doctorale @ED397_Sorbonne. Plus d’informations et coordonnées pour nous joindre sur ce lien. adum.fr/as/ed/voirpropositio…
Happy [/relieved] to share my final postdoc publication in @ACSEnergyLett where we show that optical microscopy is sensitive enough to directly image ion transport in solution without optical labels/plasmonic enhancement. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
Very grateful for an excellent collaboration with @Alex_James_King in the Weber Group at @BerkeleyLab via @LiSA_Hub_DOE, additional support from @BeckmanFnd and @STROBE_STC, and many invaluable conversations with researchers around the world as a beginner in electrochemistry.
I have officially started my position as a PI (@CNRS Research Fellow) at the institute @insp_umr7588 of @Sorbonne_Univ_! Here is a short post on the institute website introducing me.

Just submitted my first independent research proposal...from an airport—I have the feeling that this won't be the last time.
📢 🥳 Honored to announce that I have officially accepted a position as a @CNRS researcher. Excited to start my independent career at @insp_umr7588 of @Sorbonne_Univ_ in Paris studying nanoscale energy transport related to light energy conversion.
@INP_CNRS
Grateful for a successful beam time at the @advlightsource of @BerkeleyLab with the Ginsberg and Talapin groups. #beamtime #synchrotron
Many international postdocs can't enter the U.S. right now due to outdated COVID policies. You can sign this letter started by the @TuftsPDA if you want to help a little!
