As usual, the #MATSUS24 @nanoGe_Conf is so enriching and inspiring. Glad this time the stop was in Lausanne!
🟣At #MATSUS24 Sophia Haussener @lrese_epfl discusses coupled multi-physics and multi-scale modeling of (photo)electrochemical CO2 reduction systems and how the insights can help to optimize these systems. 🔗 https://t.co/C97khrDq2M
