Professor Vasant is invited to give a talk at the 5th International Symposium on Solid Oxide Cells in Groningen, scheduled on 23 April at the Van Swinderen Huys. This event will serve as a platform for leading experts, researchers, politicians, and innovators in the field of solid oxide cells to convene and share their invaluable insights.

According to the Symposium website, "this year's symposium is uniquely centered around Solid Oxide Cells (SOCs) within the context of The Netherlands, with a special emphasis on the hydrogen technologies landscape in Groningen. As a hub for hydrogen advancements, the first Hydrogen Valley of Europe presents exciting opportunities for the integration of solid oxide cells, an avenue that is still largely unexplored in the region. We are dedicated to share the promising potential that SOCs hold in this dynamic environment."

The title of Professor Vasant's talk is "infiltration of functional coatings in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells”. Infiltration carried out on electrodes and the electrolyte help with densification, morphological optimisation and electrocatalysis. So we are really excited to this coming talk!
