We had an incredible time at our special group seminar last Monday (21/07/2025)! The Soft Matter Materials Group came together for a day filled with science and socialising.
The day was packed with outstanding presentations from our different research focuses, highlighting their achievements and discussing exciting plans for the future.
One of our post-doctoral alumni from 2008, Dr. Sebastian Sinnwell (Henkel), captivated us with his career journey, sharing valuable insights and stories about transitioning from academia into industry that left everyone feeling inspired.
Our research manager Dr. Kai Mundsinger gave a comprehensive update on the
operations of the Soft Matter Materials laboratory, while our fearless leader,
Christopher Barner-Kowollik, led a discussion about how AI will influence the
research environment.
After the engaging talks, we did what any photochemistry group would do and played laser tag!
The seminar was a wonderful reminder of our progress and the incredible potential we have moving forward. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to making it such a success!
