I am happy to share that I have been recognised as one of the Royal Society of Chemistry’s 2024 outstanding reviewers for Journal of Materials Chemistry A and Analyst. Explore the full list at rsc.li/OutstandingReviewers2024 #RSCPeerReview

A Future Made in Australia … as long as no new knowledge is needed.

Will ARC's budget be increased today?

Hahahaha, no.

But perhaps a review of all the reviews will be funded? I mean, there's been so many, & the one announced last year, that won't be finished until after the election, might be out of date by then. Confused? That's why we need another review!

Enhancing the Activity and Stability of IrO2 for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction over a Wide pH Range using Electrodeposited BaO2 Developing robust electrocatalysts for proton exchange membrane electrolysers is an ongoing challenge. Here it is shown that including electrodeposited BaO2 particles onto IrO2 improves both the acti...

Our latest work at QUT Centre for Materials Science on electrochemical water splitting is now online. Happy to contribute to the 10th Anniversary issue of ChemElectroChem.
Well done to lead author PhD student Nga (Sarah Ng).

Structural and chemical mapping of Au–Co(OH)2 electrocatalytic films shows the formation of ordered Au crystallites and the suppression of Co oxidation Transition metal oxide catalysts typically reconstruct both chemically and structurally during the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Here we simultaneously map the changes in both the crystallinity and...

Husic points at big business over 'plummeting' research investment A panel led by Tesla chair Robyn Denholm warns the nation has slipped on research and development, threatening Australia's economic future, as the industry minister says big business must take some sh...

“Australia has been "left behind" on R&D”

Oh, they’re very concerned about this, even though the Science/Industry Minister’s review only started this year & “will not be completed before the next election”.

How could we have known this would happen?

Let me count (a tiny fraction of) the ways👇
