It is my first duty and privilege to thank you for the honour you have conferred upon me by electing me to this Chair. This is the greatest honour that you have in your power to confer upon any of your members, and it is a matter of great pride to me that you have considered me worthy to occupy the Chair which has been so ably filled by my predecessors. During the last thirty years none of your...

Understanding precipitation behaviors of laser directed energy deposition (L-DED) Nb-Si-based in-situ composite is significant to tailor the microstructure and performances. Here, FCC-Ti α-Nb5Si3 precipitates are formed in Nb-based solid solution(Nbss) as-built Nb-24Ti-15Si alloy, orientation relationships (ORs) between Nbss have been determined with coherent interfaces among them. With Zr or (...

Due to latent heat release and the consequent thermomechanical coupling, NiTi SMAs are highly rate sensitive. In this study, effect of loading frequency on functional characteristics superelastic is explored under fatigue loading. The variation interplay between elastocaloric temperature change, forward/reverse transformation stresses, residual strain accumulation hysteresis were studied for si...

Heteroepitaxy offers a new type of control mechanism for the crystal structure, electronic correlations, and thus functional properties transition-metal oxides. Here, we combine electrical transport measurements, high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), density theory (DFT) to investigate evolution metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) in NdNiO$_3$ films as function film ...

Immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway have become a “game-changer” in cancer treatment. However, none of small molecular has been approved yet. To explore advantages and disadvantages various scaffolds, different biological evaluations were performed on three selected inhibitors, namely Incyte-001, Incyte-011, BMS-1001. In HTRF assay, BMS-1001 showed best binding activit...
