Huge congratulations to Rachael and the team for the exciting new paper! 👇👇👇
Excited to see my most recent work published! We have discovered a new NaCl hydrate that forms through flash freezing. This new hydrate could be present on the surface of icy worlds! Check it out below pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

Great turnout for the EPEC GA at #EPSC2024 - happy to see almost 100 faces (new and existing members). You don’t have to be an EPEC Member to be involved in our events this conference, why not come and see what our community of early career researchers is all about? 💫
