Congratulations to Dave Shoesmith on Receiving the U.R. Evans Award 2024
We are proud to announce that Dave Shoesmith has been honored with the prestigious U.R. Evans Award by the UK Institute of Corrosion. This award, the highest recognition in the field of corrosion science, celebrates exceptional international achievements in both pure and applied research.This year’s award holds special significance as it coincides with the 100th anniversary of U.R. Evans’ groundbreaking work that first defined corrosion as an electrochemical process. Dr. Shoesmith’s research, which focuses on applying electrochemical methods and surface analysis to uncover the mechanisms of corrosion, has made significant contributions to understanding material degradation, particularly under the demanding conditions of nuclear waste disposal.
His work not only advances fundamental science but also supports the development of safer, more durable materials for long-term environmental safety. This recognition is a testament to Dr. Shoesmith’s dedication and impact in a field crucial to addressing global challenges.
Please join us in congratulating Dave Shoesmith on this well-deserved honor!
