Electrostatic interactions turn out to be a dominant factor in determining the pre-organization of carboxylate guests in CD-MOFs. This observation could open up many opportunities for engineering chemical reactions in confined spaces. Dengke Shen 沈登科 Fraser Stoddart HKU Chemistry

What a fantastic day at the HKU Faculty of Science's 213th Congregation! 🎊Congratulations to our amazing graduates and dedicated Faculty award recipients.👏 The future is yours—go make an impact!

Using metagenome mining, HKU’s Prof Yongxin Li, Dr Zheng Zhao, Ying Gao, and their collaborators, explored ocean microbiome for microbial secondary metabolites – ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs). Applying their own deep learning method –

Remembering the legacy of Professor Sir Fraser Stoddart: a visionary in the fields of supramolecular and carbohydrate chemistry. Our deepest condolences to his family, friends, colleagues and students. Read more: chemistry.hku.hk/about/departme…
