Research Highlight: Chenyu Wang discusses James Gallagher and Dave Leigh's recent Chem paper on a catenane-based organocatalyst that changes its conformation to selectively accelerate different reaction steps in a catalytic cycle nature.com/articles/s4200…

if chemistry ever leaves you feeling a bit like Sisyphus, Maxwell's demon knows how to help

Happy to see my first corresponding author paper relating membrane transport to molecular machines and Maxwell’s Demon as a concept Article in ChemSystemsChem, in their Systems Chemistry Talents collection. …mistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sy… Thanks to Scott Hartley for nominating me!

a great highlight from Filez et al. on our 'wobbly' catalysis and @pauldauenhauer & co's catalytic resonance

Taking inspiration from synthetic biology and using a ratchet mechanism to drive the transformation, chemists have reported a rare instance of a spontaneous, energetically unfavourable reaction powered by a chemical fuel. chemistryworld.com/news/energetic…

Very happy to share the first article from my postdoc with Leonard Prins, "A Minimalistic Covalent Bond-Forming Chemical Reaction Cycle that Consumes Adenosine Diphosphate". Thanks to our coauthors Tommaso Marchetti (Tommaso Marchetti) and Diego Frezzato onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…

Online now: Out-of-equilibrium compartments: Thinking inside the box dlvr.it/TGPpK7

A pleasure to Preview recent work by Emanuele Penocchio, Dean Astumian, OFS☮️🇺🇦✝️ and Giulio Ragazzon for Chem. Life is defined by its compartments, find out how 'thinking inside the box' helps us to understand nonequilibrium systems here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Many excellent nominations were received, and the judging panel decided to award two Highly Commended awards to Lei Chen (University of Manchester, De Bo group) and James Gallagher (University of Manchester, Leigh group). Congratulations Lei and James!
