Dipankar and Fin took a trip to the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) in Grenoble, France recently.
Despite the blazing heat seen across mainland Europe, the lads pulled through and got to work on measuring some RheoSANS data for machine learning models.
Well done team! Now get yourselves back to Scotland and cool off.
Fin has put together a fantastic SAXS beamtime and sample preparation guide. If you are new to SAXS and need some insider knowhow, please go and check it out! Click on the link below and enjoy: Everything SAXS – Dave Adams Lab
Putting a name to a face – here is a picture of Fin at ESRF in Grenoble, France.
Tejaswini, Hunter and Connor (Draper group) joined Fin on his beamtime to the I22 beamline at diamond light source. They had a great time investigating nanostructural changes while heating and cooling N-capped monopeptide gelation systems. Massive thanks to Dr Andy Smith (I22 beamline scientist) for being helpful as always!
Prof. Dave Adams and the Adams group would like to say a massive congratulations to Emma on completing her PhD journey. Emma has been a valued member of the team and we wish her the best of luck with her future endeavours.
“Loved being in the Adams group – I wish everyone in the lab the best of luck with their research, I’ll miss you all” – Dr Emma Bowley
Castlelaw Hillfort is an archaeological site in the Pentland hills near Edinburgh. Laura has been there this week doing some experiments on the applications of HVPDs in one of the underground structures on the site. She was investigating the effectiveness of these materials in different conditions.
