A press release reported the most recent research findings of me and my colleagues. The published news is attached alongside.

Material can turn sunlight, heat and movement into electricity—all at onceMany forms of energy surround you: sunlight, the heat in your room and even your own movements. All that energy—normally wasted—can potentially help power your portable and wearable gadgets, from biometric sensors to smart watches. Now, researchers from the University of Oulu in Finland have found that a mineral with the perovskite crystal structure has the right properties to extract energy from multiple sources at the same time.

I participated in the worldwide presentation competition - the Three Minute Thesis (3MT), and made to the final of the University of Birmingham. The video of my talk is attached alongside.

''The 3MT competition is an annual competition held in over 200 universities worldwide. It is open to PhD students, and challenges participants to present their research in just 180 seconds, in an engaging form that can be understood by an intelligent audience with no background in the research area. This exercise develops presentation, research and academic communication skills and supports the development of research students' capacity to explain their work effectively.''
