Dr Celia Castillo-Blas
College Research Associate
SpecialisationChemistry
Research interestsDr Celia Castillo-Blas completed her PhD in Chemistry in 2019 supervised by Dr Felipe Gándara and Prof Ángeles Monge on the design of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with metal-cation arrangement control in secondary building units in the Institute of Materials Science of Madrid (CSIC). After that, she has worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Universidad Autonoma de Madrid under the supervision of Dr Ana Platero-Prats, where her research was focused on development of defective Zr-MOFs for the capture and degradation of toxic chemicals in water.
Celia moved to the Department of Materials Science and Metallurgy at the University of Cambridge in November 2020 as a Leverhulme Trust Postdoctoral Research Associate. Her current research is conducted under the supervision of Dr Thomas D. Bennett and focuses on the synthesis and characterization of MOF crystal-glass composites using advanced synchrotron techniques.
