I am absolutely thrilled and humbled to announce that I have been named a 2024 Sloan Fellow! @SloanFoundation
However, I am even more thrilled to share this honor with my good friend @jpcorreabaena!! 🥳🍾🥂
Congrats to all!!

🔬 What if we could watch photocatalysis happen—one catalyst at a time and in real time?
see our new article in Chem "Single-catalyst operando photoluminescence spectroscopy of perovskite quantum-dot-driven photoredox reactions"
We use an individual perovskite quantum dot simultaneously as:
✨ a quantum emitter
⚗️ a single photocatalyst
👁️ an operando probe of its own catalytic activity
Remarkably, these perovskite QDs are sufficiently robust to operate under realistic reaction conditions while revealing charge-transfer dynamics, particle-to-particle heterogeneity, and degradation at the few-atom level.
These insights are fundamentally inaccessible through conventional ensemble measurements

A "decades-old mystery in organic light-emitting crystals" has been resolved by Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar Lea Nienhaus (@NienhausLab) and colleagues at @RiceUniversity: news.rice.edu/news/2026/rice…

An honour to be elected to the Australian Academy of Science! I look forward to working with the academy promoting science for the good of all.
Excited to share our newest work published in #JACS! This paper has caused many headaches but we are so happy it's come to fruition!
Thanks to @NSF, @dreyfusfndn and @SloanFoundation for the funding!!

And here's to Dr. Sullivan!!
Say goodbye to Colette Sullivan, M.S.
They grow up so quickly 🥹

New paper alert: a quick summary of most of my tenure time. Special thanks to Zach and Colette for doing much of the heavy lifting!

Kelvin did a bad thing... I made it glowy 😂
Happy #FluorescenceFriday y'all!
Happy #FluorescenceFriday!! Do I lose my spectroscopy street cred if I do organic synthesis? Asking for a friend... #glowythings
Happy #FluorescenceFriday to those that celebrate the best day in the week!
So proud of you!!!
Pretty excited on my 25th (by my count) first day of school, but my first one at @HopeCollege. Very blessed to be teaching my favorite class, Gen Chem I this semester!
Oh and happy #FluorescenceFriday
But... @Thorlabs why is my beam cube fluorescing 🥺
It's that time of the year again... Looking to start your independent career? Do you focus on energy or sustainability? Come be our colleague @ChemistryRice!
