Really pleased to announce our work upon the photoredox reactivity of small Ti-oxo clusters has been published in Chemical Science. Thanks to collaborators Dr. Tobias Kraemer and Dr. Floriana Tuna for their contributions! We show even the smallest chunk of metal oxide semiconductor can undergo productive photochemistry with charge separation, and that a two electron, intramolecular photoredox mechanism occurs

Part III student Kinran Lau will be moving on to start a PhD at the International Max Planck Research School for Interface Controlled Materials for Energy Conversion, working in the group at the University of Duisburg-Essen under the supervision of Prof. Stephan Barcikowski and Prof. Martin Muhler.

We wish Kinran the best of luck with his new project!
