Francesca is a 3rd year PhD student. Her research is focused on the use of MOFs for drug delivery in cancer therapies.

Hayden is a 2nd year PhD student from the 2019 Sensor CDT cohort. Hayden is working in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Physics Joint with StranksLab. His research focuses on the development of novel Perovskite@MOF composite materials and exploring their optoelectronic properties.

Yuexi is a first year PhD student working on MOFs for Drug Delivery Systems.

Yue is a first year PhD student. His research focuses on the green synthesis of monolithic MOFs for energy-related applications. During his spare time, he enjoys history, language and travelling.

Nakul is a 1st year Ph.D. student working on the design of novel algorithms for the discovery of new MOFs. He is generously supported by the Cambridge International Scholarship & the Trinity-Henry Barlow Scholarship (Honorary). To know more about him, feel free to visit: www.nakulrampal.xyz

Ali is a 1st year PhD student. His research will be focusing on the synthesis of MOF monoliths for Natural Gas storage and upgrade applications.

I am a 3rd year PhD student working on the computational study of porous materials for gas adsorption and storage applications. Moreover, I employ molecular-level simulations and other computational tools to help understand the particular behaviour of some materials and for the rational design of materials. Prior to starting my PhD, I obtained the MSc in Advanced Chemical Engineering course at Imperial College London. In my free time, I enjoy reading, sports, and arts.

Elise is a 2nd year PhD student from the 2017 CDT cohort in sensor technologies. Elise’s research focuses on surface modification of MOFs for targeted drug delivery in cancer therapies. In her spare time, Elise enjoys travelling, meeting new people and playing volleyball.

I synthesize MOF for mesothelioma and they look like rice under the microscope.

Selina is a 1st year PhD student. Her research focuses on the delivery of biomacromolecules for therapy applications. In her spare time, she enjoys dancing salsa. She is also the president of the Graduates Researchers' Society in the department.
