Biography:

Mohana Shivanna received his Ph.D. from University of Limerick (Ireland) in 2019 under the supervision of Prof. Michael Zaworotko. He then moved to Prof. Susumu Kitagawa’s group at Kyoto University (Japan) as a JSPS research fellow until 2022. His Ph.D. and postdoc work at Kyoto University was focused on the development of porous coordination polymers or metal-organic frameworks for gas and vapour storage/separations. In this area he developed benchmark materials that exhibit shape memory, induced fit, multi-stimuli responsive materials. Currently he is a postdoc working with Dr. Vitalie Stavila and Dr. Mark Allendorf at Sandia National Laboratories in California. Mohana’s current research focuses on the nanoconfinement of metal hydrides for hydrogen storage, catalysis, and superconductivity. In addition, he leads an effort focused on elucidation of photophysical characteristics of semiconducting donor-acceptor organic crystals with long exciton lifetimes.
