Trung received his certificate for his great poster. His poster title was “Sensing Water on Mars: Clay-Salt Interactions under Simulated Martian Conditions”.

We have a best poster prize winner from one of the Martians in Yesilbas Lab: Way to go Trung!!

Congratulations to my fantastic PhD student, Trung, for winning the Best Poster Prize at KBC Days! KBC days were held on November 5-6 at the Chemical Biological Center (KBC) of Umeå University. Trung presented his latest results on Mars analogue Fe-rich clay minerals, and how these clay minerals help to retain water under Mars-like conditions. He presented our coolest results with low-temperature Raman and XRD as well as microgravimetric analyses data to quantify the amount of retain water.
