Graphene, a material consisting of a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice, was first isolated in 2003 by Nobel laureates Sir Andre Geim and Sir Konstantin S. Novoselov. This remarkable material has a number of exciting physical properties and has already made its way into several industries ranging from electronics to environmental protection. This week, HLFF Blog author Andrei Mihai looks at just a few examples of these promising applications through the lens of Novoselov’s lecture on the subject at the 11th Heidelberg Laureate Forum.

Julia B. Turnšek and colleagues at the University of California, Berkeley studied CsoS2 from the proteobacterium Halothiobacillus neapolitanus and published their findings on its contribution to carboxysome architecture in the Journal of Biological Chemistry. The authors found that conserved residues in the middle region of CsoS2 are essential for interacting with shell proteins. ➡️Learn more in ASBMB Today: https://ow.ly/j2bl50UxstS. ➡️Access the JBC paper: https://ow.ly/TEac50UxstT.

📢 Check the latest paper in the Journal of Materials Research! 👩🏻🔬🧑🏻🔬 The paper is by Bogna Sztorch, Julia Głowacka, Robert E. Przekop, and Bogdan Marciniec from the Center for Advanced Technologies. The remaining co-authors are Dariusz Brząkalski (former employee of CZT UAM) and Eliza Romańczuk-Ruszuk from Politechnika Białostocka. 📲 https://t.co/9eWAvBBhHJ 📄 The paper describes the impact of organofunctional spherosilicates on the mechanical properties of polylactide. The research focused on enhancing the materials to broaden their range of applications. It was proven that organosilicon compounds can significantly improve critical mechanical parameters even at low modifier concentrations.

With the end of Collaborative Research Centre SFB 920, a new open access book has just been published that summarizes the scientific developments achieved over the past 12 years by our (past and present) colleagues Jan Nicklas, Sarah Daus, Daniel Hoppach, Lisa Ditscherlein, and Urs Alexander Peuker. Our institute contributes three chapters: "Metal Melt Filtration in a Water-Based Model System Using a Semi-automated Pilot Plant: Experimental Methods, Influencing Factors, Models" (Chapter 12), "Microprocesses of Agglomeration, Hetero-coagulation and Particle Deposition of Poorly Wetted Surfaces in the Context of Metal Melt Filtration and Their Scale Up" (Chapter 15), and "Increasing Cleanliness of Al-melts by Additon of Ceramic Fibers" (Chapter 33).

During my time at Caltech in Prof. Chiara Daraio's group, I was excited to work on a project where we incorporated shape memory polymers into multi-stable mechanical structures to realize complex temperature responsive behavior. This concept could be applied to engineer adaptive structures that recognize changes in temperature and transform their shape in response, for example to make a greenhouse where the roof opens when the sun comes out. I couldn't have done it without Giada Risso! Thanks so much for being an amazing collaborator. Check out the article published today in Advanced Science here: https://lnkd.in/gpDjap4f
