We especially want to encourage applications from individuals in groups that are currently underrepresented in science. Cambridge, and science, are for everyone!

Had a nice time at Norfolk with the @StranksLab for our annual retreat, including stimulating discussions on the use of AI in research and brainstorming ambitious research projects. Thanks to Sam and all colleagues in the group

Deploying #photosheets for #CO2 conversion now also possible with #conjugated #polymers, thanks to the molecular engineering of our @glenn_quek 💡⚙️🧪
Check out his latest work now out in @Chem_CP 🎉🎉🎉

New @ScienceAdvances paper from @StranksLab PhD candidate @QichunGu on enhanced EQE & PLQE, hole mobility, and stability via HTL polymer blending for perovskite blue LEDs. Collaborative effort with @MAnayaLab and Prof. Henning Sirringhaus.

@StranksLab PhD candidate Thomas Selby delivered his talk on linking impurities to halide segregation with correlative PL and electron microscopy at the International Microscopy Congress in Liverpool!
Cheers to @hayhaygilbert for completing her viva! 🥳
Hayley’s research focused on using X-ray absorption spectroscopy techniques @DiamondLightSou to study halide segregation in lead halide perovskites.

Excited to share my latest co-first author work, published in @NatureNano! Here, we show thermodynamically guided growth and controlled phase distribution using a halide-site-substituting spacer, enabling efficient vapor-deposited quasi-2D perovskite LEDs

Last week @SamStranks had the chance to visit former @StranksLab postdoc (now Sr Lecturer) Wenxin Mao and prof Udo Bach at @MonashUni and give a talk on the latest work from the group, including on epitaxial perovskite heterostructure growth and dynamic perovskite nanodomains!

Delighted to present my work at the Cambridge Microscopy Meeting 2026, on visualising energy flows in emerging semiconductors for more efficient devices.
Enjoyed the rich discussions and valuable learnings.
Thanks to the organizers and sponsors @cebcambridge @StranksLab

🗣️We were honored to welcome Prof. Sam Stranks @SamStranks from the Univ. of Cambridge @StranksLab to Kyoto Univ.!
His lecture on nanoscale characterization provided invaluable insights for our research. 😲😮😃
We look forward to our future collaboration!
