@ValeIannax @fullertubes @SabriaClara Excellent work 👏 Btw, I love the title you went for

I am proud to share this work born during my research stay in Stevenson lab (@fullertubes ). Congratulations to all the authors (especially to @SabriaClara) for their hard work. Check it out to discover how to trap giant fullertube molecules in supramolecular nano capsules!

It is a great pleasure to share our just-accepted @J_A_C_S on length-dependent fullertube purification, a joint work with Prof. S. Stevenson (Purdue-Fort Wayne) . Many congrats to @ValeIannax @SabriaClara @ferranfeixas and R. Smith @QBIScat_UdG @IQCCUdG pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

To celebrate the 200th anniversary of benzene's discovery and its extraordinary legacy, we are excited to announce that @RoySocChem will release a thematic special issue edited by @FeringaLab and @nazariolab. Read here "Benzene at 200", by Prof. Martín: chemistryworld.com/opinion/benzen…

BREAKING: Apple just proved AI "reasoning" models like Claude, DeepSeek-R1, and o3-mini don't actually reason at all. They just memorize patterns really well. Here's what Apple discovered: (hint: we're not as close to AGI as the hype suggests)

Apple did more for AI than anyone else: they proved through peer-reviewed publications that LLMs are just neural networks and, as such, have all the limitations of other neural networks trained in a supervised way, which I and a few other voices tried to convey, but the noise from a bunch of AGI-feelers and their sycophants was too loud. Now, I hope, the scientists will return to do real science by studying LLMs as mathematicians study functions and not by talking to them as psychiatrists talk to sick people.

@RowanSci Nice summary, but there is a big "typo": the first equation, which should be the Kohn–Sham equation, is instead the one for hybrid XC.

For those who don't want to get tangled up in the details, you can jump straight to the table near the end with major functionals displayed in their proper place. (Thanks to the inimitable Jonathon Vandezande for writing this.) rowansci.com/publications/t…

Choosing good DFT functionals is hard! There's a web of different forms & corrections, and it's often non-obvious how they stick together. Our guide for non-experts weaves its way through GGAs, mGGAs, hybrids, range-separated hybrids, double hybrids, & dispersion corrections:

🆕📚 We're thrilled to share our latest work published in @J_A_C_S "Fluoride Clusterfullerenes: Tuning Metal–Metal Bonding and Magnetic Properties via Single Fluorine Atom Doping" doi.org/10.1021/jacs.4…

Merci à @SciChefQC et au #FRQ pour cette belle reconnaissance! Je souhaite également remercier tous mes collaborateurs, qui ont rendu possible la découverte du #fullertube C130, ainsi que mes mentors Michel Cote et @fullertubes pour leur soutien ininterrompu.

Very happy to share our new work on #SupramolecularMasks in @CCSChemistry about #DielsAlder regiofunctionalization of C70. Many congrats to @_tania_pm @SabriaClara @ValeIannax @WeAreNanoUp @InharImaz @felipegandara80 and @ferranfeixas !! chinesechemsoc.org/doi/10.31635/c…

Qui dit rentrée, dit retour des rencontres d'axes du RQMP. Cette année commence avec l'axe nano-materiaux et materiaux d'inspiration biologique le 25 septembre dernier. D'excellentes présentation plus une table ronde sur les enjeux de la recherche en matériaux biologiques.

Félicitations à Michel Côté et @EstebanDynkin dont l'article a été sélectionné pour le ACS Editor's Choice: Anisotropic Contributions in the Chromatographic Elution Behavior of Fullerenes and Fullertubes pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Exciting day for the FIRST Molecules Research Center. We have scaled up production and are now shipping milligram quantities of pure C90 and C100 fullertube samples to our Canada and Germany collaborators!!

Using experimental and ab initio data, @EstebanDynkin et al. show that fullerenes can be separated by shape and their retention times predicted, allowing identification of @fullertubes isomers from small samples! @ICourtois_UdeM @nanocarbons pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

🏴‍☠️A treasure chest full of fullertubes-- worth more than their weight in gold 🪙🥇 (literally!) Congratulations @fullertubes on the nice cover!

'Anisotropic Contributions in the Chromatographic Elution Behavior of Fullerenes and Fullertubes' from The Journal of Physical Chemistry C (@JPhysChem) is currently free to read as an #ACSEditorsChoice. 📖 Access the full article: go.acs.org/aqH

Check out my Cover Art for our latest paper. The image shows the van der Waals interaction between @fullertubes and pyrenyl groups in HPLC. Thanks @Ryo_M_Graphics for your advices. Read more: lnkd.in/eBDMVRte @ICourtois_UdeM @ACS4Authors #MyACSCover #ACSEditorsChoice

Discoveries hiding in plain sight! A treasure chest overflowing with glowing fullertubes—long-predicted carbon structures finally brought to light. Paper by Profs. Steven Stevenson @fullertubes and Harry Dorn. At ScienceBrush Design, we had the privilege of creating the accompanying cover design!
