Inorganic women go to celebrate women in inorganic chemistry!!

Leah's second phosphenium pincer paper is out, with another cat-themed TOC graphic! pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102… Makes me want to sing "syn kitty, anti kitty, little ball of fur...."

Tetrastanna(II) Cyclic Crown...gorgeous crown! Thanks EurJIC …mistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100… Thanks to all involved co-authors.

A romantic dinner in the glovebox? or when your oxygen sensor looks crazy… here is the good old #Lightbulb trick. An incandescent lightbulb with a hole in its glass cover will tell you if you really have pesky oxygen around! #RealTimeChem

We have an immediate postdoc position under Advanced Materials Chemistry Center on organic polymers and framework related projects. A strong polymer synthetic background is needed. Suitable candidates please drop me a message.

👩‍🔬🔎We are hiring!! Fully-funded open positions for PhD student and Postdoc available in our group (fjulialab.com). Join us if you are interested in sustainable photocatalysis with Earth-abundant metals. See details below 👇 #chempostdoc #PhDposition #RealTimeChem

Check out our #paperoftheweek! Thank you Alina for presenting this fascinating work from Jeff, an H.S. Shafaat alumnus! Read to learn more about the kinetic pathway and thermodynamic linkage in binding of the first three substrates of a lysine chlorinase! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Today, organometallic chemistry suffered the tremendous loss of outstanding teacher, mentor, and scientist Prof. Jeff Byers. But to me, he was a grad school friend who grew into a colleague, collaborator, and conference buddy. His loss will be felt by many for a long time.

Very excited to have our Nature Communications article on the imaging and photodynamic treatment of patient-derived incurable tumors and metastases published. Fantastic collaboration with Haihua Xiao@ICCAS. Fakultät für Chemie und Biochemie der RUB Ruhr-Universität Bochum nature.com/articles/s4146…

Another new issue of Inorganic Chemistry and another tiptoe across the Periodic Table with a load of great articles. This week our delightful front cover presents a platinum complex chirality variety show. pubs.acs.org/toc/inocaj/62/…

Leaving academia for industry

Looking for 1-2 undergrads anywhere in the world doing research in materials chemistry to interview about their research and where they see the future of the field going. Is that person you? Or do you know someone? DM me. Undergrad In The Lab can you retweet?

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2023 #NobelPrize in Chemistry to Moungi G. Bawendi, Louis E. Brus and Alexei I. Ekimov “for the discovery and synthesis of quantum dots.”

Check out our paper in Biomaterials on the Encapsulation of Chemotherapeutic Iridium Complexes in Nanoparticles for NIR Photoactivated Chemotherapy. Congrats to Nicolás Montesdeoca ! Wonderful collaboration with Haihua Xiao@ICCAS ! Fakultät für Chemie und Biochemie der RUB Ruhr-Universität Bochum doi.org/10.1016/j.biom…

Milestone of the lab has just been published in Angewandte Chemie. We report on the catalytic production of hydroxyl radicals and lipid peroxides with a Co(III) complex, triggering ferroptosis in cancer cells. Congrats to Nicolás Montesdeoca , Lukas, and Lisa. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…
