IMRE researcher awarded “Nanoscale Emerging Investigator 2022” by the journal Nanoscale, Royal Society of Chemistry

Heartiest Congratulations to Dr. Ady Suwardi, Deputy Head, of IMRE's Soft Materials Department. Ady is named one of the "Nanoscale Emerging Investigator 2022" by the journal, Nanoscale, Royal Society of Chemistry.

Nanoscale presents this themed issue highlighting 2022's rising stars in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology research. This special issue gathers the very best work from researchers in the early stages of their independent careers. Each contributor was recommended by experts in their fields for carrying out work with the potential to influence future directions in nanoscience and nanotechnology. 

"As a young scientist, there is no shortcut, no substitute for hard work. It is an honour to be awarded the Nanoscale Emerging Investigator award 2022. I hope to inspire my peers and juniors alike to work hard and hopefully, one day, make it in scientific research. We are all in this together, let's help each other." - Dr. Ady Suwardi
