[Preview] Chem
The preview article about electrochromic MOFs is published in the second issue of a new journal, Chem (Cell Press)!! We highlighted the great results by the Dinca Group in MIT. Shuhei contributed to this Preview article together with John Ashburne!!
Gavin Craig joins the group
Dr. Gavin Craig from the University of Glasgow (The Murrie group) joins the MC2 group as JSPS postdoctoral fellow!!! Welcome, Gavin!!!
[Review] CrystEngComm
The review article about emerging applications of metal-organic framework is published in CrystEngComm. Prof. Christian Doonan kindly invited Shuhei to be a coauthor for the part of bioapplications of MOFs. Always great to collaborate with good friends!!
Masashi Nakahama left the group
Dr. Masashi Hammer Nakahama, who carried out the research in the MC2 group for 6 years and 9 months, left the group and started working in the American-based chemical industry in June.
