Participants of the working meeting on the R&D projects "New Materials for Electric Drive Vehicles" and "Recycling Spent Batteries for Electric Drive Vehicles" from American party - Upendra S. Rohatgi, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Igor Barsukov, American Energy Technologies Company,Ukrainian organizations - O. Gogotsi, Materials Research Centre, M.Gubinskiy, NMetAU, S.Saenko, KIPT, and STCU representatives I.Tomashevskaya and N.Dudko.
Meeting and technological discussions on the project were held at MRC’s office and workshop premises. It focused on the intermediate results and deliverables of the project, conducted experiments, assembly, testing and launching equipment. Also there were discussed large volume of research, experimental, engineering, and production works carried out by MRC and other project participants.
MRC director O.Gogotsi presented to American partners and other project participants posters, detailed presesntations, describing the main results of MRC work done for more than a year. Meeting participants also visited MRC workshop premises, where equipment for technology line is manufactured and assembled.
The second day, on April 18, 2013, participants of meeting visited Gas Institute of NASU, where they demonstrated the operability of technological equipment manufctured within the project "New materials for Electric Drive Vehicles".
On the third day of the international meeting, April 19,2013, there was held a general meeting at Ukrainian Science and Technology Centre (STCU) with Deputy Executive Director Vic Korsun, Irina Tomashevska and Natalia Dudko (STCU), Upendra S. Rohatgi (Brookhaven National Laboratory, USA), Igor Barsukov (AETC, USA), Michael Gubinskiy (NMetAU), Oleksiy Gogotsi (MRC), Sergei Saenko (KIPT). The meeting discussed results and a great scale of research and manufacturing work done, performed by participants in the two projects according to work schedules and deadlines of their performance.

Congratulations and thank you to our collaborators from TU Wien and CEST for very interesting work and making it published! In this work, an upscalable electrochemical MXene synthesis is presented. Yields of up to 60% electrochemical MXene (EC-MXene) with no byproducts from a single exfoliation cycle are achieved.
Thank you to our collaborators for the amazing joint work recently published in Graphene and 2D Nanomaterials about MXene–silk fibroin composite films aiming to develop materials with tunable electronic and thermal properties
Congratulations to all collaborators with this interesting joint work!
Dr. Oleksiy Gogotsi, director of MRC and Carbon-Ukraine, innovative companies that are among the leaders on the world MXene market, visited 2024 MRS Fall Meeting & Exhibit. together with Dr. Maksym Pogorielov, Head of Advanced Biomaterials and Biophysics Laboratory, University of Latvia.
MRC and Carbon-Ukraine team visited the 3rd International MXene conference held at Drexel University on August 5-8, 2024. Conference brought together the best reserchers and leading experts on MXene field. 
Together with colleagues from the University of Latvia, MRC/Carbone Ukraine, Adam Mickiewicz University, University Clinic Essen, and others, we have developed a novel concept involving the binding of antibodies to MXenes. In our research, we utilized anti-CEACAM1 antibodies to develop targeted photo-thermal therapy for melanoma (in vitro), paving the way for future in vivo studies and clinical trials. For the first time, we demonstrate the feasibility of delivering MXenes specifically targeted to melanoma cells, enabling the effective ablation of cancer cells under near-infrared (NIR) light. This new technique opens up vast potential for the application of MXenes in cancer treatment, diagnostics, drug delivery, and many other medical purposes.
Here we demonstrate a new developed method for depositing Ti3C2Tx MXenes onto hydrophobic electrospun PCL membranes using oxygen plasma treatment. These novel patches hold tremendous potential for providing mechanical support to damaged heart tissue and enabling electrical signal transmission,thereby mimicking the crucial electroconductivity required for normal cardiac function. After a detailed investigation of scaffold-to-cell interplay, including electrical stimulation, novel technology has the potential for clinical application not only for cardiac regeneration, but also as neural and muscular tissue substitutes.
