What results from a mixture of chemistry, mathematics, big data, history, philosophy, sociology, literature and drawing. Researcher (@mpiMathSci). He/him.

Delighted to see @NatureBriefing highlighting my recent @ChemistryWorld piece on hypergraphs for representing molecular structures. Why do we need them? Because traditional chemical drawings can hide the true nature of molecular bonding. https://t.co/DdVETuOYDb #chemistry #maths

This is the outcome of an invitation by Chemistry World to write about the role of hypergraphs in chemistry #chemistry #mathematics

A pleasure to speak at the ERC SUSTECH Workshop in Pisa! A fantastic meeting reinforcing my belief that changing chemistry for the better requires interdisciplinary collaboration. Thanks to Elisa Giuliani, Arianna Martinelli, Stefan Wagner, and Olexandr Isayev for the invitation!

Ein interessantes Projekt, das Sara Lang und ich an der Universität Bielefeld leiten werden! https://t.co/9HgaJUjDnZ

Our project (Al-)Chemical Space In Silico (AXIS) was awarded $400K by @SchmidtSciences! 🎉
With Sarah Lang, we’re using AI & lab experiments to decode alchemical recipes, uncovering lost chemistry from pre-1800 manuscripts. https://t.co/RBRX0Apmd4

Great to connect with fellow Editors-in-Chief at the Springer Nature meeting today. Excellent insights to bring back to Theory in Biosciences as we continue to grow and improve!

Recently, I mentioned the importance of the private chemical space to improve AI results (https://t.co/GlSWOr5kMq). This note (https://t.co/2QOfY7Ii8D) highlights how even small amounts of private data can significantly improve the performance of AI models. #chemistry #AI

Can the maths of computational linguistics help map the history of chemistry? 🧪💻 Yes! Section 4 of this paper shows how those tools unveil changes in chemical concepts. https://t.co/goKkwuAJKL (Based on fantastic work by @OrtliebStefania) #chemistry #linguistics #history

This great Terence Tao talk makes me think about the future of chemistry with AI. He asks: what is a real contribution now? What do we reward? What is truly "understood"—and who (or what) did the work? Watch: https://t.co/OWTcVztzuF 🧪💻 #chemistry #AI

A real pleasure to have edited this special issue of Ambix on Computational History of Alchemy and Chemistry, together with my wonderful co-editors @SarahALang_ and @MahFarz. #chemistry #history https://t.co/2K1SEFqsWR

Can AI spread like a virus and erode cognitive autonomy? Our new paper models how LLM adoption can cross tipping points, triggering runaway dependence and tech lock-in, suggesting routes to "cognitive immunization". https://t.co/4e8ya6JNsW

Thrilled to be at #Petrocultures2026! Two wonderful panels made one thing clear: chemistry’s path to becoming truly sustainable requires not only chemistry, but also the social sciences and humanities. Sustainability is a scientific, social, cultural, and historical challenge

I was recently asked to comment on the role of hypergraphs in chemistry. The note is now part of the Summer 2026 CICAG Distillate of the RSC Chemical Information and Computer Applications Group. You can read it here: https://t.co/zEVqBQRSwy

Delighted to give one of the two keynote lectures at the 29th Conference of the International Society for the Philosophy of Chemistry, hosted at UCLA, July 29–31, 2026 #chemistry #philosophy #history https://t.co/CyKi6DQypW

Excited to speak at the Oxford Seminar in the History of Alchemy and Chemistry. I’ll discuss how big data, computational, and mathematical tools are revealing new insights into the history of chemistry—both at the macro and micro levels https://t.co/Lvsy05IRGC #chemistry #history
