Congratulations Dr. Mohadeseh Bagherabadi, who successfully defended her PhD thesis on Multifunctional Mesopores for Wound Dressing with Integrated Recognition, and Release Functions.

We welcome Tobias Hoffmann as new group member. He is working on nanoscale polymer writing in mesoporous silica layers and automatisation of visible light induced polymer functionalisation inside nanopores.

The Start of Something New

CeraSleeve took a major step forward and officially founded acompany. It’s been a long time coming, and this milestone means a lot to us.

We welcome Paersis Weslie as new group member. She is working on mesoporous, conductive transient sieves with application in molecular transport and separation.

We welcome our new team assistant Sandra Klatt.

Our group celebrated the end of an eventful year. With two new PhD students, one successfully completed doctorate, several successfully completed student and internship projects, 10 Publications, many conferences, group members winning awards, and having a project on the way to found a startup – we are really proud of our last years achievements. Together with participants of all macromolecular chemistry groups in our Chemistry Department at TU Darmstadt, we had an enjoyable evening with food, drinks and a secret santa. We wish everyone a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! Let's keep pushing the boundaries of nanopores and polymer science in 2025!
