Can’t wait to see so many amazing leaders of the inorganic nanoscience community in Vermont this week for the first ACIN conference!

Working with WANDA (and Emory!) was one of the highlights of my PhD, and I’m looking forward to my group returning someday to take advantage of these amazing tools. Also excited for the Automating Chemical Laboratories Scialog conference this week to think about how the field moves into the future!

🚀Thrilled to share our light-twisting materials from semiconductor nanoclusters! Films of CdS magic-sized clusters helically assembled with record g-factors and large homochiral domains. Congrats to Tom, River, Reilly, Haoyang & Frank! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.ado7201 #Chiroptics

QUANTUM DOTS WIN THE NOBEL!! Particular congratulations to Louis Brus, who has been an inspirational mentor to me and so many others in the field.
