The follow-up to Julia’s previous publication on assisted ion transfer at the three-phase junction was a long time coming. As in the previous paper, we used a squaramide-based ionophore to help transferring hydrophilic ions across the interface between to immiscible liquids, but here, the ionophore was functionalised with a ferrocene […]

In a recently published paper in Electrochimica Acta, Julia presents the results of her investigations of two new squaramide-based ion-pair receptors for ion transfer at a three-phase electrode. The compounds, which were synthesised by colleagues from Warsaw University had previously been used to transfer hydrophilic ions across a liquid-liquid interface, […]
Julia is nearing the end of her 2.5-month internship at Curtin University in Perth. She joined the research group of Professor Damien Arrigan to expand her knowledge of ion transfer measurements between two immiscible liquids (ITIES). At the beginning of March she and Martin travelled to Perth to plan for […]
Our conference post from last year was updated with a few photos.
Last week we had the pleasure of hosting 25 young electrochemist at IChF for the third edition of the e-SPARK summer school. The school is the brainchild of Emilia, and she has written a long, nice post about it on her group webpage, so please go and read it there. […]
UPDATED: Where were we last year… Conference season is upon us and some of us (Bren… looking at you) have already had their share of conferencing. Below is a list, that will be updated as we go, on where you can meet us during the year. When Where Who Title […]
In March, Bren, Julia and Martin travelled to Limerick to visit our collaborators in Micheál Scanlon’s research group at the Bernal Institute at the University of Limerick. Martin and Julia stayed for a few days to learn more about AC voltammetry in liquid|liquid systems. Many thanks to Nicolas for his […]
Maybe a little late news, but since the beginning of the academic year we have three new PhD students: Iga, Julia, and Wojtek. Iga Malicka is a graduate from Warsaw University and is currently working in the UpTurn-project and will be doing electrochemistry in microfluidic systems. Julia Maciejewska-Komorowska is a […]
We’re on a roll. Another cation transfer paper was accepted1, also in Electrochimica Acta. This is work done by Marta and our undergrad student Julia. They were investigating transfer of cations at the three-phase junction driven by reduction of the fullerene C60 and facilitated by the addition of ionophores to […]
