We are delighted that Dr Yi Zhang (Andrew), currently at the Institute of High Energy Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences at Beijing, has had his paper "Molecular to Macroscale Energy Absorption Mechanisms in Biological Body Armour Illuminated by Scanning X-ray Diffraction with In Situ Compression" accepted in ACS Nano (https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acsnano.0c02879).

Along with Dr Gupta, Andrew has now published several articles on using 3D diffraction modelling to understand structure and mechanics in biological nanocomposites.
