By combining molecular design, on-surface synthesis and scanning probe microscopy, we can control atomic structure, electronic states and magnetic interactions within the same platform.<br>\r\nIn this talk, I will follow the path from bottom-up synthesized graphene nanoribbons [1,2] to open-shell nanographenes [3] and designer quantum spin systems [4]. I will discuss how atomic structure can determine electronic topology and how molecular spins can be coupled into well-defined quantum chains. Recent examples include Haldane chains [4], alternating-exchange spin chains [5] and antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains [6], where collective and fractional excitations can be probed directly at the atomic scale.<br>\r\nMore broadly, this work illustrates a materials-science strategy in which structure, functionality and interactions are programmed at the level of molecular building blocks. Rather than optimizing properties in an existing material, the aim is to design the material and its quantum behavior together. Atomically precise carbon nanostructures therefore provide a model platform for exploring how synthesis, structure and emergent functionality can be linked in a predictive way, with implications for the future design of low-dimensional electronic, magnetic and quantum materials.\r\n</p><ol>\r\n\t<li>J.

Many high-capacity BCC HEAs, which mostly contain early 3<em>d</em> and refractory metals, have been reported<a>3</a>. However, the thermodynamics of these hydride phases and the multistep hydrogen uptake/release processes are not favorable for practical applications. Further compositional optimization is required before these alloys can be used in real-life applications. In this context, the main advantage of HEAs is their high chemical versatility, which allows their functional properties to be tuned, primarily through the strategy of elemental substitutions/additions. <br>\r\nThis oral contribution will provide an overview of the latest developments in optimizing the chemical composition of BCC HEAs for hydrogen storage applications. It will demonstrate that the selection of the most promising HEAs involves compromises relating to thermodynamics, kinetics, cycle life stability and high reversible capacity<a>4</a>. Despite the many scientific challenges posed by the complex interplay of physicochemical parameters and the vast compositional space of HEAs, as well as the trade-offs between several functional properties, this presentation will propose an understanding of the structure-function relationship in these promising alloys. The impact of structural properties, such as long- and short-range ordering, on the hydrogen sorption properties and the development of defects during cycling will also be examined<a>5</a>.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>References: </strong><br>\r\n<a>1D.

Dear Science and Other Stories. Durham, N.C.: Duke University Press, 2021.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n'Decolonizing’, a term fashionably peppered across curricula, is a contested concept, weaponized and instrumentalized in political battles across global academia—and beyond. What does doing decolonized research actually entail? Can one decolonize one's own approach? Where do the signs of a decolonized research methodology surface? Can the academy be decolonized from within? Organized into three sessions, the seminar will explore diverse dimensions of citation practices:T. <br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis seminar will interrogate the far-fetched claim of neutrality in research at large, and of doctoral research in particular, through the lens of decolonial research discourse. Together we will explore precedents and methodologies, understanding how decolonized approaches fundamentally change the nature of conventional academic research. The seminar is articulated around four sessions/roundtables that problematize/address:<br>\r\n<br>\r\n1) Positioning<br>\r\n2) Data <br>\r\n3) Tracking<br>\r\n4) Subject & Intersections<br>\r\n<br>\r\nEach of the sessions will be organized as a roundtable discussion, including doctoral students, masters students, EPFL scholars and researchers, and external guests, providing a platform for critical reflection, dialogue, and collaboration on navigating the complexities of fieldwork across diverse research environments. This seminar should provide a rare platform for critical reflection, sustained dialogue, and collaborative reimagining - an opportunity to collectively navigate and challenge the complexities of conducting research across diverse environments while actively working toward decolonized methodologies.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nProgram:<br>\r\n<u>November 17th, 2026</u><br>\r\n<br>\r\n13:00 Introduction<br>\r\n<u>14:00 Session 1, Positioning</u><br>\r\n<em><u>The Violence of Legibility</u></em><br>\r\n<a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/varathas/?hl=en\">with சிந்துஜன் வரதராஜா (Sinthujan Varatharajah)</a><br>\r\n14:45 Roundtable Discussion<br>\r\n<br>\r\n15:30 Break<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>16:00 Session 2, Data</u><br>\r\n<em><u>Data Against 'Data'</u></em><br>\r\n<a href=\"https://www.newschool.edu/parsons/faculty/claudia-tomateo/\">with Claudia Tomateo</a><br>\r\n16:45 Roundtable Discussion<br>\r\n<br>\r\n17:30 Apéro<br>\r\n<u>November 18th, 2026</u><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>10:00 Peer-to-Peer Workshop</u><br>\r\n<br>\r\n12:00 Lunch<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>13:30 Session 3, Tracking</u><br>\r\n<em><u>The Politics of Data: Collections and the Unequal Making of Knowledge</u></em><br>\r\n<a href=\"https://studiyo-filipino.ch/en/home-en/\">with Doris Bacalzo & Beatriz Lorente of Studiyo Filipino</a><br>\r\n14:15 Roundtable Discussion<br>\r\n<br>\r\n15:00 Break<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<u>15:30 Session 4, Subject/Intersections</u><br>\r\n<em><u>Origin (and other improbable things)</u> </em><br>\r\n<a href=\"https://strangerinthecity.ch/\">with Salim Umar</a><br>\r\n16:15 Roundtable Discussion<br>\r\n<br>\r\n17:00 Closing Remarks<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"https://memento.epfl.ch/event/neighbours-vol-8-lucia-allais-topographic-modernis/\">18:00 Suggested Event: Neighbors Lecture with Lucia Allais</a></p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-10-28T10:29:56", "last_modification_date": "2026-11-03T14:33:41", "link_label": "Against Data - Decolonizing Research", "link_url": "https://www.riot.today/seminars-against-data/", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "Blue City Room, BP 4232", "url_place_and_room": "", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "ிந்துஜன் வரதராஜா (Sinthujan Varatharajah), Claudia Tomateo, Doris Bacalzo and Beatriz Lorente of Studiyo Filipino, and Salim Umar ", "organizer": "RIOT, Chaired by Prof. Charlotte Malterre-Barthes", "contact": "Kathlyn Kao; [email protected]; [email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "decolonizing, research, doctorate, methodology", "file": "https://memento.epfl.ch/public/upload/files/2026AgainstDataPosterA3_9d1NzD2.jpg", "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/122368/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/4/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/32/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72932, "title": "Insertion pathways shape the sequences and architecture of membrane proteins", "slug": "insertion-pathways-shape-the-sequences-and-archi-2", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/insertion-pathways-shape-the-sequences-and-archi-2", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/34139/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/34139/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/34139/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-11-11", "end_date": "2026-11-11", "start_time": "12:30:00", "end_time": "13:30:00", "description": "<p>Membrane insertion constrains both the sequences of transmembrane segments and their placement within proteins.
