🧪 How to replace lithium in batteries? Dr. Tomáš Hartman from UCT Prague, supported by GAČR, is exploring 2D materials based on silicon and germanium – more sustainable and abundant elements that could pave the way for next-gen battery tech.

🧲 Could wearable EMI shielding be flexible and lightweight? 
Dr. Filipa Oliveira is cooking up new materials at UCT Prague using MXenes – 2D compounds with tailored surface chemistry.
