About the Curator
I'm Timothy Johnson, a technology strategist and former senior scientist with a background in industrial MOF research and development. I built MOFNews to help researchers and industry professionals keep up with a fast-moving field.
Background
My work spanned the full technology readiness spectrum: from fundamental MOF design and synthesis through to scaling production from grams to multi-kilogram quantities, targeting applications in industrial gas separation, clean air technologies, and heterogeneous catalysis for pharmaceutical manufacturing.
I now work at the intersection of science, AI, and high-performance computing, helping organisations navigate emerging technologies.
Why MOFNews?
Having worked in MOF R&D in industry, I know how difficult it is to track meaningful developments across a field that spans thousands of publications per year. MOFs sit at a critical inflection point between academic research and commercial deployment, and the signal-to-noise ratio is challenging.
MOFNews monitors 20+ scientific publishers and news sources to deliver a curated feed of the research, market intelligence, and breakthroughs that matter most to decision-makers in materials science and adjacent industries.
Get in Touch
Whether you're evaluating MOF technologies for your organisation, exploring research partnerships, or interested in emerging technology strategy, I'd welcome the conversation.
