Abstract: Societies have prospered using a linear “take-make-use-dispose” approach, extracting natural resources to make products, using them, and ultimately discarding them or their residues. This unsustainable approach has exploited natural resources at a rate that has caused excessive pollution and loss of biodiversity, and is leading to a global climate crisis. In response to this […]

CBE Seminar: “Multifunctionality of MXenes for Sensor Technologies” (Lia Stanciu, Purdue University)
CBE Seminar: “Multifunctionality of MXenes for Sensor Technologies” (Lia Stanciu, Purdue University)
Abstract: MXenes, a versatile family of 2D materials, have garnered interest for applications in sensing technologies due to their unique combination of conductivity, hydrophilicity, and surface tunability. This talk explores the integration of MXenes into sensor platforms, and discusses their potential in electrochemical, optical, and environmental sensing. Their surface functional groups can be leveraged for […] |

Abstract: Global transition to clean energy relies on the development of efficient hydrogen storage materials and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalysts—two primary chemistries investigated in this thesis. MXenes, a family of two-dimensional transition metal carbides and nitrides, have emerged as promising candidates for hydrogen technologies due to their high electrical conductivity, chemical tunability, and structural […] |

Abstract: Recent technical advances are leading to a rapid transformation of the chemical palette available in cells, thus making it conceivable to produce nearly any organic molecule of interest—from biofuels to biopolymers to pharmaceuticals. However, these feats require the ability to “hijack” native cellular machinery and metabolism and navigate the complexity inherent in cellular regulation. […] |
