🚨🎉I am very proud to share our (@GalliumWu) recent work published in @J_A_C_S , where we use our imine-based photoswitches to drive a transimination reaction energetically uphill🔦⛰️ We are excited to continue exploring this area!😃Check out the paper at doi.org/10.1021/jacs.4…

@Johnjmol @FU_Berlin @MpiciPotsdam @peterseeberger Congrats John 😀

I'm delighted to announce our research group will be moving to @FU_Berlin this March. We are excited to be a part of an amazing faculty with incredible colleagues. A huge thanks to @MpiciPotsdam and @peterseeberger for the support over the years! It has been greatly appreciated

The School of Chemistry is looking to recruit motivated students onto our MSc by Research degree.

There's one more Dr in the world 🥂🎓

Very proud of @GalliumWu for defending her thesis (4th of December)! As the first PhD from the group, she has set a very high standard! Thanks to Frank @wuerthnergroup for the mentorship along the way! 🎉🍻

On December 4th, 2025 Jiarong Wu @GalliumWu successfully defended her PhD thesis on "Photoswitchable Imines:  From Molecular Design to Out-of-Equilibrium Systems". Congratulations and all the best for your future career! 🎉

Have you ever wondered how types of scientific glassware got their names? This article tells the stories of men like La Marquis de Burette, Justus von Liebig and Jan Wółumétrič. PDF: immaterialscience.org/s/Glassware.pdf

@JImmatSci I have been telling the Stark joke for years but no one appreciated it :(

@stefano_crespi @ScienceAcad_swe Congrats! 🎉🎉🎉

Proud to be the recipient of the first Nagel Prize in Chemistry ⚗️ 🧪 from @ScienceAcad_swe 🙏 kva.se/nyheter/tva-yn…

📢Our team will be advertising a number of fully-funded positions in the coming months (new photoswitch-based projects)💡🚨 Applicants from the 🇪🇺 and 🇨🇳 are encouraged. More info will be coming soon and advertised on our website imineswitch.com #photoswitch #imine

So... one thing that was always frustrating was the use of clunky stands, boxes and foil. We like to be able to move the LED and sample around, so we decided to print out own holder for the LED and sample area... Version 2 is currently in design 😀

A bit late... But we recently bought this guy, he has been useful for a variety of pieces of equipment... And yes, that is a sea view from the lab window of the new lab😁

Thank you @Uni_WUE, it's been a blast!

Check out this Preview Article in @Chem_CP by @stefano_crespi on our Recent Chem paper. A really concise preview, thank you so much! 🥂🙏 doi.org/10.1016/j.chem…

Fantastic news! 🎉 Our University is ranked #2 in the UK in both the Guardian University Guide 2026 and Times & Sunday Times Good University Guide 2026. Special congratulations to Chemistry – #1 in the UK (Times) and #2 (Guardian)! 👏👏

@S__DI_STEFANO @SupRaLabRome @olivo_giorgio A very nice approach and a concise paper :)

Using an enantiopure ACA to program over time the induction of chirality onto a metal complex. Thanks to all Authors and Reviewers. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an… @SupRaLabRome @olivo_giorgio @S__DI_Stefano

@The_LightLab @sahanawazsir @mlm7996 @SKoppayithodi Very nice :D

HOT FROM THE PRESS: A Smart Photoswitchable Sensor for Differential Detection of Multiple Nucleotides In Two Photoswitchable States using Machine Learning Techniques. Congrats @sahanawazsir @mlm7996 @SKoppayithodi - Analysis & Sensing - Wiley …mistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…

📰Congratulations to Paulina who has just published her first first author paper from her PhD doi.org/10.1039/D5SC04… and her #MyFirstChemSci @ChemicalScience looking at coordination sphere interactions driving isomer selectivity in heteroleptic cages with low-symmetry ligands

Some easter eggs are hidden in the video-game inspired TOC, relating to our groups upcoming move to @StAndrewsChem

📢New perspective on light responsive imine-based systems out now in @ChemicalScience with @GalliumWu💡🚨🔦 This is part of the 2025 Leading Investigators Collection, Thank you to the reviewers for input 🙏 #hot #photoswitch #imine imineswitch.com doi.org/10.1039/D5SC05…
