Putting aerosols to work in supramolecular chemistry
Hi, my name is Li Zehua, a master students of Advance Functional Materials at the University of Glasgow, I recently completed my practical project in the Mehr research group. During my undergraduate studies, I developed a strong interest in organic chemistry. My main focus was on alkali metal catalysis and photo-induced phase change energy storage dyes,…

Crafting next-generation reaction containers out of mists of tiny particles
Hi everyone! My name is Zhang Luokun, a master student of Advanced Functional Materials from the University of Glasgow. I am currently working as an intern in the Mehr research group. Two years ago, I came to Glasgow after finishing my undergraduate studies in China. For my program, I learnt the synthesis technology and characterisation…

The “optimiser” paper: Mapping out a path between optimisation and discovery
Our latest collaborative output with the Cronin group, codenamed “Chemputer Optimiser” is out in Nature Communications. Work on this paper started many years ago while I was still a post-doc in the Cronin group, and continued throughout the pandemic. As expected with an open-ended project like this, we had to stop many times and ask…
