Conversion from RhMOP to RhMOF by linker insertion!! Nice research done by our visiting student from Taiwan, Yu-Shan, supervised by Javi @Cabrelles497 is now published in Chem Asian J. Great collaboration with Chia-Her Chia-Her Lin :) Congrats!! aces.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/as…

Last Friday, Ayana Ayana Miyata gave an excellent master thesis presentation. Beautiful story with massive experimental data. Congratulations!!

Thanks Harano-san for taking care of Javi’s visit and this exciting collaboration. Thanks to you and your team, we finally figure out what we made!!

I am very proud to announce that my first first-author paper on WaaFs is finally out in Nature Chemistry !!!🎉🎉 Huge thanks to Shuhei Furukawa Group and the amazing team for their greatest support in my last six years in Kyoto!!! nature.com/articles/s4155…

WaaFs appeared in Nature Chemistry!! Assembling large supramolecules via van der Waals interaction leads to the formation of robust, stable three-dimensional open frameworks. The beautiful sole research done by our former master student Shun Tokuda 徳田 駿!! nature.com/articles/s4155…

昨晩Nature Chemistryに公開された新しい多孔性材料WaaFに関するプレスリリース。分子—>超分子—>結晶と階層的に積み上げて材料化することに意味がある！昨年修士課程を卒業した徳田駿さんShun Tokuda 徳田 駿 の好奇心によって発見された大作です。

A new “First Author Interview” with Mr Po-Chun Han is now available on the iCeMS website! “Designing Flexible Porous Materials with Phase-Transformable MOPs” icems.kyoto-u.ac.jp/en/people/fai/… Shuhei Furukawa Group #iCeMS #KyotoUniversity #Science

A new professor promotion alert!! Our postdoc Tomoki Tateishi Tomoki Tateishi will become Assist. Prof. at Tohoku University FRIS in Tohoku University in April. We had farewell BBQ party and celebrated his new journey. Good luck, Tomoki!!

A bit chilly still, but sakura bloomed already. Our 2025 Hanami party ended without too much drunk.

Do you like controlling materials by light? We show photodimerization of MOPs to tune the stiffness of highly crosslinked colloidal gels. Great work done by our former postdoc, David Burke!! Now in Chemical Science. Congralutions!! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Coming to Kyoto for ISMSC2025, Kyoto? If you stay longer, please attend the post-symposium on porous materials held at iCeMS, Kyoto University, on June/2-3. We are happy to provide oral slots if you did not get one in ISMSC2025. Please contact Shuhei by email!! Details will come soon.

MOPs WITH A GECKO'S GRIP.💎🦎 I got the chance to write a News&Views in Nature Chemistry about a paper I enjoyed by Shuhei Furukawa Group. They made cool MOPs (that's not new) that pack in a diamond fashion the same way geckos climb walls (that's super cool)!👇 rdcu.be/ei8Pj

Finally, I am super happy to welcome my friend, Andrey Klymchenko, Andrey Klymchenko 🇺🇦, to Japan, Kyoto, and iCeMS!! It took 20 years after we met!!

ケムステでWaaFの仕事を取り上げていただきました！論文の裏話も書いてますのでぜひ👀
