Lots of talk about coursework being useless.
In response to the rise of the exam-centric Gove curriculum 10 yrs ago, I wrote about why coursework & skills beyond the exam room are important.
I haven't changed my view.

I have a PhD position on "Spin-crossover activation in energetic metal-organic frameworks" from October 2024. Collaboration with the very exciting Falcon Project (think Q from James Bond). Please see details here: https://t.co/fg30YY7qZi
Are you a, or do you know any, talented UK student interested in crystal engineering or supramolecular chemistry who want to translate their research into the real world? Then this PhD position may be the opportunity you/they were waiting for: https://t.co/hFNBNAVc3e
A critical perspective by Prof. Madhab C. Das, IIT KGP, on the development of multifunctional MOF-based materials for the efficient adsorptive removal of various antibiotic classes. Nice read.

The crystal structure predicted formation of linear extended polymer having 1,4-triazolyl linkage! But it recated to give a helical polymer having 1,5-triazolyl linkage. This is due to huge molecular motion in the crystal lattice! | ChemRxiv - https://t.co/e7QaQeJSgn 2 of 3
Chandrayaan-3 Mission update:
The spacecraft's health is normal.
The first orbit-raising maneuver (Earthbound firing-1) is successfully performed at ISTRAC/ISRO, Bengaluru.
Spacecraft is now in 41762 km x 173 km orbit.
@ISMSC2023 ...talk by the supramolecular artist @jonathan_steed , the beautiful supramolecular family @prof_djadams, a very warm lecture from Prof. J. Sessler, so happy to be a part of the ISMSC 2023, big thanks to all the dignitaries who visited Iceland to make it a big success.
@ISMSC2023, cheers for the coordinators, the presence of Sir Fraser and David Leigh added grace to the event...hats off to all the officials in making the conference a big success...
One week to go! See you at the Harpa Convention centre downtown in Reykjavík on Sunday! Registration opens at 10 am. Conference start / first talk at 1 pm. Welcome reception 5:30 pm. See you in Harpa on Sunday!
Early bird registration rates EXTENDED to 20th March for #ISMSC2023 ! We are thrilled to have received +500 abstract submissions (!) but need a few more days to process these - hence we are extending our early bird registration deadline to Monday 20th March. Hurry up!
