Remembered this quote/motto of mine once again ‘It takes a village to raise a child’. I cannot give enough thanks to the people who got me where I am today; and one big special credit goes to @_iainmcculloch for mentoring, believing and supporting. I have still a lot to learn!
They’re finally here! Meet C&EN’s 2021 Talented 12. These early-career scientists are taking on some of the most daunting problems in chemistry: https://t.co/eGQGaCfahF

Wow, I still cannot believe it. It is a great honor to receive the prestigious #EES 2025 Lectureship Award this year. It could not be possible without people supporting, nominating, and of course contributing from @KAUST_OMEGALab 🙏🏼 https://t.co/md5H2IxI3t

Our work on a flexible patch for blood pressure monitoring is out! We use both sides of the flexible substrate and a design relying on our beloved transistors for unification of two types of signals https://t.co/N42lggHp6f. See the news: https://t.co/IWpliX0jaA

It is my great pleasure to share with you @KAUST_OMEGALab latest fresh paper from @YegoRV in @NatureMaterials
https://t.co/jBbhbY2cbI where we worked on a predictive model to orient organic semiconductors preferentially. @KAUST_PSE enjoy reading!

Great work by @LanzettaLuis in such short time seeing the gap in the field. Enjoy reading it open access.
⚡️Reverse bias instability is a major challenge for PV modules in the field. In our latest work @ACSEnergyLett, we tackle this issue in narrow-bandgap Sn-Pb perovskite solar cells by using Cr/Cu top contacts @KAUST_OMEGALab #OpenAccess #ACSEditorsChoice

Paper alert 🔔 After over a year juggling between journals (!), our outdoor stability work is finally out! @NaturePhotonics
https://t.co/H3dSMYffrf no removing interlayers or electrodes in between tricks, no mpp but Voc, outdoor in Saudi, OPV can survive quite nicely! Enjoy!!
We hope our findings encourage a renewed focus on material stability in the pursuit of high-efficiency, stable OSCs. Enjoy reading!! 🎊 #OrganicSolarCells #Stability #OPV
