Ava, Kaiyuan, and Justin attend the 2025 Bard CEC Workshop

Ava, Kaiyuan, and Justin are honored to be able to attend the 2025 Bard CEC Workshop at UT Austin and celebrate and recognize Al Bard’s enormous contributions to electrochemistry. They heard stories about how he inspired researchers in the community throughout his career, and heard talks from incredible electrochemists across all kinds of applications: solar fuels, electrocatalysis, batteries, scanning probe microscopy techniques, etc. Congratulations to Justin for giving a great talk about the effects of bandgap renormalization between monolayer and bulk TMDs!

We had a blast at group retreat!

We enjoyed some teambuilding, chatting about science, and learning more about the paper submission process at our group retreat in Estes Park March 28-30. We took a short hike around Lily Lake in Rocky Mountain and had a competitive foosball tournament. It was so much fun!
