📰Congratulations to Paulina who has just published her first first author paper from her PhD https://t.co/x36yaw4cht and her #MyFirstChemSci @ChemicalScience looking at coordination sphere interactions driving isomer selectivity in heteroleptic cages with low-symmetry ligands

[UoBChemistry @UoBChemistry]

Work from the group of Dr Tim Barendt, including former SoC PhD student @SamuelPenty, in collaboration with researchers at @DurhamChemistry @sheffielduni @UCLChemistry, on chiroptical switching in a PDI macrocycle is published now in @ChemEurJ https://t.co/Dxs1MJA1Za

[UoBChemistry @UoBChemistry]

Congrats to Kate Hadley, PhD student who has won the Best Poster Prize at the 17th Int Symposium on Applied Bioinorganic Chemistry in Sweden. Kate received the award for her poster entitled “Chemical Crosslinked Metallo Coiled Coils; Implications for MRI Contrast Agent Design.”

How can Le Chatelier drive kinetics? @StefanBorsley and I analyse Denton's organocatalytic Mitsunobu reaction and show water removal outperforms catalyst redesigns. Why? Removing water part way through the reaction resets the potential energy surface! https://t.co/rIwuk30PZ9

Work from the group of Dr Andy Jupp @JuppLab on dual-responsive phosphorous-based sensors has been published (🔓open access) in @angew_chem Congratulations to Andy and his team. You can read the article here 👇

Great work from PhD student Ethan and MSci student Izzy scoping out a new area of research for the group!

[UoBChemistry @UoBChemistry]

A new chiral macrocycle which shows three-way switching of its chiroptical properties out now @angew_chem. Work by @DenisHartmann in @TabLabChem & fantastic collaborators @SamuelPenty and Robert Pal at @DurhamChemistry and @ZwijCompChem at @UCLChemistry https://t.co/Yw5eqZiSik

[Liam Griffin @liampgriffin]

Very excited to have this work out now! A very fun project which started during my stay in Berlin with @m_malischewski. Thanks to the whole group for making me feel so welcome and to @OxICFM for funding!

[Jamie Lewis @LewisChemistry]

Delighted that this team effort from the group is out - we have tried to summarise the vast range of capsule-type architectures in the literature, including their synthesis, properties and limitations. We hope this will be a useful resource! @UoBChemistry

[Jessica Rühe @jessicaruehe]

The last (and coolest) project of my PhD was just published 🥳 Thanks to everyone involved! #myfirstJACS

[Robert Hein @RobertHeinChem]

What a week, paper #3 out now, this time in @J_A_C_S!
Together with Lotte (@FeringaLab) we elucidated the multi-state and pathway dependent redox switching properties of a simple overcrowded alkene with different geometries and optical properties.

Very happy to see our work (@SophieCPatrick, @JJDGroupOxford) on real-time continuous flow cation sensing via non-faradaic capacitance spectroscopy published in @ChemicalScience! https://t.co/mWEe7rA0Hq

[UoBChemistry @UoBChemistry]

Recent work from @TabLabChem & collaborators at @uniofeastanglia published in @angew_chem have shown switchable electronic coupling between perylene diimide dyes in the “Pink Box” macrocycle using 2D electronic spectroscopy https://t.co/jde5go7hAi

[Jamie Lewis @LewisChemistry]

🖊️Feedback requested📰we have written a very broad tutorial review on (supra-)molecular capsules that will hopefully be a useful resource. Please get in touch via email if you have any comments or notice we've missed something valuable - much appreciated! https://t.co/BUM3MSSbMT

[Robert Hein @RobertHeinChem]

First paper from my Postdoc in the @FeringaLab is out in @J_A_C_S now! Great collaboration with @SidlerEric where we utilise dynamic redox switching to reversibly modulate antiaromaticity and chiroptical properties of a helical indenofluorene

[Stop Akehurst @StopAkehurst]

Hello & welcome to SAND: Stop Akehurst North Durham. We’re a group of concerned residents, both in North Durham & the wider North East opposed to ‘parachute’ Luke Akehurst becoming the next MP for the constituency. The leaflet below explains some of the reasons why. Get on board.

08.03.2024 International Woman’s day and the day I passed my PhD viva! 🎉
Thank you so much to my colleagues, friends and supervisors @PikramenouGroup and @HannonGroup

Thanks to Dr.Nik Hodges and prof. @antonioskanaras for being part of this day 😊

I don't know if we can save Station Street from demolition & give it the love its needed for decades. But Brummies & I will damn well try.
