Good to catch up with some friends from NZ. Best of luck Georgia Richardson Matthew Evans with beam time ANSTO

Massive congratulations to my supervisor for getting the Rutherford Discovery Fellowship 🥳 looking forward to having you around in the lab 👩🏼‍🔬 Dr Anker

Here's to some real life chemistry - signed up for life 🥰

Group pot luck lunch! Great work team! Georgia Richardson Finlay Burke

200g of Samarium metal ft Finlay Burke’s great special effects. Time to get this show on the road aye Dr Anker 💪🏼

Anker group photo at #Dalton2023 🥳 we had the best lanthanide and group 13 talks/posters… voted by us

findaphd.com/phds/project/l… Fully funded PhD in my research group, if anyone is interested in Lanthanide(II) complexes and doing some fun reactivity in New Zealand let me know. RT appreciated.

A fantastic opportunity to do some next gen lanthanide chemistry! 🧪

Great opportunity here in the Dr Anker research group! You’ll get to work with some awesome compounds in a fun lab environment under a great supervisor 👩🏼‍🔬

This work was a long time in the making, exciting to see it out as a pre print! Big thanks to everyone who contributed 🧪

Rahul's work on the steric control of diamide ligands (L) in the K reduction of LMg, leading to competition between formation of v. long Mg-Mg bonded (i.e. Mg(I)) and N2 activated (i.e. Mg-N2-Mg) systems is out as a pre-print. tinyurl.com/4274vk2k #ozchem Monash Chemistry

First example of a Eu(II) hydride just out in ChemEurJ: Chemistry - A European Journal. Great collab led by Dr Anker. First of many. Super bulky ligands getting the job done yet again! #ozchem Monash Chemistry tinyurl.com/cfkjae8h

Excited to publish divalent lanthanide hydride chemistry beyond ytterbium with Dr Anker!! Big thank you to everyone involved with this collaboration 👩🏼‍🔬…mistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.10…

Congratulations Sophie Unsworth on graduating your Masters with a 1st Class degree! Good luck over the ditch with Jones Research Group for your PhD!

End of an era 💃🏼 1 + 3 years studying the coolest lanthanide complexes with the best people, 5 papers, Deans list.. couldn’t have ask for a better PhD experience 👩🏼‍🔬

The OG Samarium Benzene Tetra-Anion (rdcu.be/d5pQi) out now in Nature Chemistry. Big thanks to everyone who worked on this, too many to name all of them here. Just wanted to say a special thank you to Georgia Richardson on this work, great way to finish your PhD!
