Huge congratulations to Larissa who has recently been awarded a prestigious 3-year 1851 Research Fellowship in Science or Engineering for 2022 from the Royal Commission (https://royalcommission1851.org/fellowships/research-fellowships). The project will be developed in the Photoactive Materials research group and will provide Larissa with the opportunity to undertake her first independent research project. The project will focus on the exploration of stimuli-responsive liquid crystal host materials for energy upconversion systems. We look forward to seeing all the exciting results!
