Just Published in ACS Applied Engineering Materials: congrats to Hannah Cairney, Elizabeth Hjelvik & @Straub_Tony!
Impact of Oxidative Chemicals on Hydrophobic Porous Membranes Used in Membrane Distillation

@CUBoulder @ACSPublications @ACS_AMI
Great working with an incredible team on this (including @Shihong_Lin and @rizardbeth)!
The analysis a provides a quantitative framework to compare various membrane-based desalination processes (e.g. reverse osmosis and membrane distillation). Hope it will be a useful resource!

Open tenure-track faculty positions at CU here in ChBE! Target is assistant professors but others will be considered.

Guess @bouldercolorado no longer considers "staying safe" a priority. Bang up job rededicating pedestrian space to private vehicle storage. 👍
Folks should remember that our elected and city officials have utterly failed here.
Today vs one week ago.
ALT West end of Pearl St, now reopened to cars with lots of SUVs parked along the road.
ALT West end of Pearl St, closed to cars with barriers that say "stay safe" with many pedestrians in the background.
Turns out our new @CUEVEN program coordinator, Dustin, and I go to the same trail running group. Here’s us freezing on top of James Peak (13,300 ft) this morning 😎🏔️
Trail is 13.5 miles out and back from Moffat Tunnel East Portal with 4,300 ft of elevation gain 😬
First morning that west Pearl St is open to car traffic since 2020. Street used to be lined with lively cafe and restaurant seating—now just parking.
Enormous failure by @bouldercolorado
Come learn about the materials science & engineering graduate program at Boulder! I’ve been really blown away by the excellent students, faculty, and staff in the program, and it keeps getting stronger :)

Boulder friends: Come check out the Chili Bowl event at the Studio Arts Pottery Lab today :) Street party with pottery, chili, music, and beers. I'll be there serving chili/wheelthrowing from 12-3pm. All proceeds go to free outreach programs.

I wasn't at ACS last week but was thrilled to receive photos of PhD student Duong Nguyen's talk at the Gonter Environmental Chemistry Award session.
Duong received both the Gonter award (for highest quality paper) and the WEF Canham scholarship ($25k!) this summer 🔥🔥🔥
Great time hiking, sailing, and talking membranes at the @GordonConf and in Boston!
Grateful for the organizers @IC_Escobar @Phillip_Lab and for my sailing buddies (old and new) @vkaranikola @MMftoney @akshaypd @adropintheWWTP ⛵️⛵️⛵️

Great to be with our membrane community on a very successful @GordonConf #membranes!Thank you for organizing @IC_Escobar @Phillip_Lab! Stoked for GRC2024! – at Boston, MA
Nice writeup on Kian's NASA fellowship project. Kian was selected to work with the NASA Ames Research Center in Silicon Valley. We're pumped to start collaborating with them on spacecraft and planetary water recovery systems 🚀🪐
EVEN PhD student Kian Lopez has earned a NASA research fellowship for his work with water recycling on long-term space missions. Developing efficient and compact water recycling methods is crucial for future space exploration. To learn more, click here: bit.ly/3S4jJxE

Proud to see Elizabeth (@rizardbeth) featured on the homepage of the @nytimes today! She recently started biking to lab instead of driving.
Been fun to chat with her about biking and meet up with her downtown last week for Boulder’s Bike to Work Day :) nytimes.com/2022/06/25/busin…

Congratulations to the @nams2022 young membrane scientists @Duval_Lab @Straub_Tony @Villalobos_LF – at Catalina Foothills, AZ
Reunions of @nams2022 ❤️
1. @MIT Grossman group postdocs 🧪🔬 @Get_Beza @DavidBergsman
2. Manish’s 5:30am run group 🏃🏃♀️🏃♂️ @MembraneLab @davidladner @kerri_l_h
3. Vicky! 😎😎 @vkaranikola @YaleEnvEng
And so many more!
Great to see everyone and learn during @nams2022!
Our group gave four oral presentations (Kian, me, and @rizardbeth x2) and two posters. Congrats to Kian on winning a poster award 🎉
