How did growing up in coastal Sri Lanka inspire a career focused on the future of corrosion protection?

In this episode of the HQP Highlight Series, Thilini Malsha Suduwella (PhD candidate in Prof. Janine Mauzeroll's lab at McGill University) joins to discuss her research investigating NHC coatings on steel and the electrodeposition of NHCs on carbon surfaces for corrosion protection.

Hosted by Hetvi Shah (PhD candidate in Dr. Gang Zheng's lab at the University of Toronto), this conversation explores interdisciplinary collaboration, innovative approaches to surface characterization, and the importance of curiosity when navigating challenges in research.

At C2MCI, we are dedicated to advancing the science and technology of carbon to metal coatings. Our mission is to innovate and share cutting-edge research, practical applications, and industry insights to enhance the durability, efficiency, and sustainability of metal surfaces.

Join our community of scientists, engineers, and enthusiasts to stay informed and inspired.
