In this presentation, we show that multivariate metal-organic frameworks (MTV MOFs)—isoreticular frameworks made with mixed links—can be prepared as SSS approach by considering their underlying topology and homeomorphic relations, according to the theory of periodic nets.
Since the 1970s, automotive catalysts have provided enormous benefits to the society by eliminating harmful pollutants from vehicle exhaust emissions. With increasingly more stringent emission regulations and the need to limit carbon emissions, the automotive industry is facing many new challenges.

This seminar examines why journalists often fail to take the necessary information security steps to better protect themselves, their sources, and their stories, despite ongoing threats to journalism. From mass surveillance and intrusive spyware technologies to hacking, political intimidation, and legal challenges, these threats coalesce to impact journalism and endanger public service news. This deteriorating information ecosystem contributes to the repression of journalists and their sources, chilling freedom of expression and the ability of journalists to carry out their roles in a democratic society.
Converting CO2 to value-added chemicals and fuels is one of the most practical routes for reducing CO2 emissions while fossil fuels continue to dominate the energy sector in the near future.

As intermittent power sources like wind and solar enter the grid and portable electronics rise in ubiquity, electrochemical energy storage devices must improve to keep up with demand. One promising emerging technology is redox-based pseudocapacitance, which uses fast surface redox processes for rapid charging and discharging.
The field of Information Technology and cybersecurity is vast. Students coming out of accredited institutions with degrees may sometimes get confused at the dizzying array of opportunities available to them and wonder how to get started in the field as a career. This seminar focuses on my personal journey through the field and reflects on several career paths graduates can take as they look to enter the field.
Studying materials at extreme conditions is not only relevant to nuclear weapon conditions, but also to planetary interiors. Highly accurate equation of state data at extreme conditions provides a solid basis for models that enable predictive simulation of material properties. In this talk, I will cover the investigation of two different material categories at extreme conditions: pre-compressed H2-He gas-mixtures and lanthanides.
