This invited Team Profile was created by the scientists in the Highly Operational Team (HOT) led by the Shustova group from the University of South Carolina (USA). HOT researchers are located at four universities (the University of South Carolina, Clemson University, the University of Florida, and Chulalongkorn University) and one national laboratory (Savannah River National Laboratory) from two different countries, USA and Thailand. The team recently published an article using the synergy among the HOT participants to reveal the synthetic pathways toward preparation of transuranic heterometallic extended metal–organic materials, providing mechanistic details for their formation, and establishing a structure–property relationship: “f‐block MOFs: A Pathway to Heterometallic Transuranics”, K. C.

“The collaboration between national laboratories and universities presents a unique opportunity, not only for accessing highly radioactive nuclides but also as a critical pipeline for accelerating workforce … HOT synergy is a cornerstone for this type of project and has already resulted in a unique series of heterometallic f‐block frameworks.” Find out more about the Highly Operational Team (HOT) and their work on metal–organic materials containing actinides.
