This week I am attending the IEEE International Conference on Microwave Magnetics (ICMM) in Exeter. Right after that follows the Emerging Applications of Spin Transfer Torque Workshop (EASTT), also in Exeter. This means I have two opportunities to present our group activities: First I give a talk on our very first FMR results on Co20Fe60B20 grown by Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD). The second talk is addressing the challenges of making spintronic devices based on topological insulators. |

The Royal Society has invited me to attend the UK-India Frontiers of Science Meeting in Chicheley Hall in Milton Keynes, close to London. The level of science shown from colleagues of both India and the UK in disciplines such as Physics of Topological Devices and Quantum Computation is impressive. I am presenting a poster and enjoy discussions with with my colleagues. But: Beware of the peacock! |

I gave a talk here in Loughborough today. My main goal was to convey recent developments in spintronics and topological materials. Thanks to everybody who attended and for the lively discussion after the talk (and of course for the cookies)! |

Welcome to Geet Awana who starts today her PhD! Geet obtained a Master of Science from the University of Delhi. During her Master project, carried out at the National Physical Institute, she synthesised single crystal topological insulators and characterised their structural and electronic properties. In future, she will investigate topological insulators and their applications for spintronics. |
