Application-led, online analysis of flow synthesised metal–organic frameworks (MOFs)
Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have numerous important large-scale industrial applications such as gas storage, energy storage, and water purification and remediation. The prospect of industrial usage means there is a need to develop efficient processes for scalable quality-assured MOF production. Flow reactors of

With the AWS outage, now‘s as good a time as any to post this old strip.
I also enjoyed the description of scientific instruments as icebergs, with the capital cost the bit you can see, and the running costs and required infrastructure as the larger hidden piece underneath.
AI can now generate fake microscopy images that are nearly impossible to detect. A serious threat to scientific integrity—and we’re not prepared for it. Commentary in @natnano.nature.com #nanotechnology

Tobias Wilson-Bates@phdhurtbrain.bsky.social · 11mo agoConcerned that we are losing the necessary ratio. 15% of teachers/faculty should be irretrievably strange eccentrics. Every learning experience should have some element where in later life you can reflect with former classmates about how bizarre at least one (1) class per year was.
These are the most challenging times for early-career scientists and engineers. My team is doing its bit to help by maintaining and even expanding our database of funding opportunities for early-career researchers. We found 437 of them. Download it freely here: research.jhu.edu/rdt/funding-...
@gralefrit.bsky.social You have to see these! A friend of mine has been collating a series of images entitled "Things my students have written turned into Philomena Cunk quotes" and they're just glorious.
Deadline for applications is 28 February 2025. Do get in touch if you have any questions.
