On May 14th, 2018, Prof. Yury Gogotsi received an honorary doctorate from the National Technical University of Ukraine “Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute (NTUU “KPI”), Kiev, Ukraine.

Processing guidelines for the fabrication of MXene films, coatings, and fibers have been established based on the rheological properties.

Professor Yury Gogotsi will give a lecture on 2D materials MXenes on MSE winter Colloquim in Materials Science and Engineering Department, Stanford University. 

MXene is one of the most sensitive gas sensors ever reported that sniff out chemicals in the air to warn us about everything from fires to carbon monoxide to drunk drivers to explosive devices hidden in luggage have improved so much that they can even detect diseases on a person’s breath. Researchers from Drexel University and the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology have made a discovery that could make our best “chemical noses” even more sensitive.

Professor Yury Gogotsi, Drexel University, USA,  gave a plenary lecture on February 06, 2018 and chaired a plenary session on February 05 at the Energy Future Conference (EF3 Conference 2018) in Sydney. EF3 Conference 2018 brought together scientists, engineers, policy makers, investors, academia, and industry to discuss the latest advances in energy technology. 

More than 30 speakers from USA and Czech were invited, among them also was invited outstanding scientist, professor Yury Gogotsi, founder director of Drexel Nanomaterials Institute in Drexel University, USA.

Professor Yury Gogotsi from Drexel University, USA, has won the 2017 Energy Storage Materials Award, which is awarded by the journal Energy Storage Materials. The Award will be presented to Professor Gogotsi at the ICEnSM 2017 (2017 International Conference on Energy Storage Materials), which will be held in Shenzhen, China, on Nov. 18-21, 2017.

His research ranks among the top 1% most cited works in his field and during its year of publication, earning the mark of exceptional impact. This year is the first time Yury Gogotsi made this list in two categories - Materials Science and Chemistry.

Oleksiy Gogotsi, director of Materials Research Center presented join research on synthesis and biomedical applications of 2D carbides MXenes.

Professor Yury Gogotsi from Drexel University, USA, received the 2017 Changbai Mountain Friendship Award from the vice-governor of Jilin Province at the National Day foreign experts reception.

Congarstulations to professor Yury Gogotsi from Drexel University, USA, who has won the 2017 Energy Storage Materials Award,and is awarded by Energy Storage Materials journal.

In their most recent paper in Nature Materials researcher from Drexel University led by prof. Yury Gogotsi showed that Coulombic ordering reduces when the pores can accommodate only a single layer of ions. The non-Coulombic ordering is further enhanced in the presence of an applied electric potential. 

Researchers described a process by which nanodiamonds — tiny diamond particles 10,000 times smaller than the diameter of a hair — curtail the electrochemical deposition, called plating, that can lead to hazardous short-circuiting of lithium ion batteries.

Yury Gogotsi is a researcher in the Drexel University Nanomaterials Group. He and his colleagues discovered a series of novel materials known as MXenes.
