CCDC's GitHub repo shares #python scripts that make #chemistry work simpler. For example, this script generates #CASTEP input files for a structure in Mercury. #Chemistswhocode can edit and submit scripts too! What tasks do you want to see automated?

🍎Teaching undergraduate #chemistry? George Sheldrick's slides cover all aspects of symmetry. Starting with why there are 230 space groups, and why are there no five-fold axes. Find them here: https://t.co/d1Nd8TQor9

To celebrate the #BSW22, this #FeaturedStructureFriday features UYUJIK https://t.co/HmWq0HuQaK by our top British depositor Prof. M. B. Hursthouse @unisouthampton. The cyclometallated complex is a rare example of a P/Namine/C-cyclometallated functionalised tertiary phosphine.
The @BritSciAssoc's ten-day celebration of science, tech, and maths (@ScienceWeekUK) just started! The #BSW22's theme is "growth." Get the whole family involved and learn about structural science while growing sugar crystals. 👇
