RegisterDescription
The extraordinary properties of 3D materials found in nature, including gecko fingerprints, nacre, bone, and other biological materials, place the synthesis and understanding of hierarchical structures at the leading edge of research. Here, I will present an innovative synthetic approach to build hierarchical nanoscale frameworks to generate a new class of 3D materials and demonstrate their significance for energy storage and conversion technologies.
About the speaker
Lucy Gloag graduated from Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand with her BSc/BCA and BSc(Hons). She completed her PhD at the University of New South Wales in 2018 on the synthesis and characterisation of Ru-based nanocatalysts, before the commencement of her Postdoctoral Fellow positions with Prof Richard Tilley and Prof Justin Gooding. Her work on nanomaterials for electrocatalysis led her to an appointment as a Lecturer at the University of Technology Sydney in 2023. She joins the Research School of Chemistry at ANU to develop single atom and nanomaterials for energy storage and conversion technologies.
