Emily is an exceptional crystallographer. Modern crystallographic software often provides only averaged structures, yet she can examine diffraction patterns directly to uncover hidden disorder and reveal the true arrangement inside a crystal. Her work on topologically aperiodic frameworks reflects this unique skill. She understands how order and complexity coexist in crystalline materials and uses this insight to study structures that do not fit conventional descriptions.

Outside the lab, Emily is cheerful and full of energy. She brings a sense of joy to the people around her and creates a positive atmosphere in any environment. She is also highly talented in many forms of art. She dances and performs as a jazz singer, and these creative abilities show how versatile she is.

Emily will now join the University of Birmingham as an independent research fellow. We congratulate her on this important step and wish her success in her new environment. We believe she will continue to carry out creative research and bring joy to the people around her.
