Happy to learn that @Altris_AB, a spin-off company from @angstromABC @StructuralChem1 @chem_angstrom @UU_University involving @younesi @willrbrant1 and Ronnie Mogensen, received an #EITAward from @InnoEnergyEU for their great work! Congratulations to you all! 👏🏆🍾
We’re incredibly happy to be the winner of the EIT Innovation Team Awards for our pioneering work on safe and sustainable sodium-ion battery technology. Thank you @InnoEnergyEU InnoEnergy for all the support on our journey from the laboratory to commercial readiness.
Super proud of @inielsen_968's achievement today completing her licentiate on new strategies to characterizing Prussian blue analogues. Kudos to you and @AKenInge for such a great scientific discussion :D
Successfully defended my licentiate thesis "New strategies for characterizing Prussian blue analogues" today 🥳 I had a really nice discussion with opponent @AKenInge about PBAs and in particular diffraction and refinements. The examiner was Prof. Adrian Rennie. @StructuralChem1

Batteries based on naturally abundant elements are strategically important for Sweden & EU.
Thanks to @Energi_mynd for interviewing me & @willrbrant1 about our journey since 2016 when we (together with my former student, Ronnie Mogensen) found ALTRIS AB🔋

Looking forward to lecturing at the school again! I'll be talking about operando #diffraction and the @Altris journey commercialising #sodium #batteries
It is time so sign up for SMART-SOLID-Q-MAT Lighthouse Summer School from June 26 to June 30 at beautiful Sandbjerg.
The program is amazing, and it is free. You can meet international speakers and our own speakers. There will also be group work urlen.dk/5Bh
Come have a listen! I'll cover our operando cell and creative ways to extract quantitative insights from complex #diffraction data from #batteries. Featuring the work of @OlofGustafsson4 and @inielsen_968!
@StructuralChem1
One more manuscript from @OlofGustafsson4's PhD thesis is now available online! Here we learned that the energy barriers for multiple phase transitions in the cathode material LNMO are significantly reduced as soon as you remove lithium.

Watch this space! I will be recruiting a PhD in the not too distant future to work on developing multimodal operando #battery analysis at @MAXIVLaboratory also in collaboration with industry.
The new MSCA COFUND doctoral programme PRISMAS is about to be launched. Bringing together 9 Swedish Universities, a strong network of associated partners and large-scale infrastructures of MAX IV, it will train 40 PhD students to future leading synchrotron experts.
Stay tuned!

Clocking off for the year early and returning home to Aus for Christmas. It'll be nice to have a break from what has been a very hectic year.
Today @OlofGustafsson4, after four years of diffraction and long nights at synchrotrons, is defending his thesis on cation mixing and non equilibrium transitions in cathode materials! @StructuralChem1
