The beauty of azobenzene isomerisation <3

Last week, we enjoyed the 2026 edition of our Chemistry Doctorate School and I am pleased to share It was a big success! Many thanks to all partipants, especially the PhD students. We made it happen for you! Best of luck with your research projects & see you next year :⁠-⁠)

Last night’s incredible sunset as seen from the upper boating area at Seacliff State Beach. This may be the greatest summer sunset I’ve seen, it was more like an intense winter sunset

Thrilled to share our new paper in @angew_chem on π‑extended COUPY dyes for NIR live‑cell imaging, FLIM & peptide labeling Great collab with @A_Frances_chem, @martae_alberto, E. Rebollo @IMIBIC Congrats to @DiegoAbMo and all co‑authors! 🚀 doi.org/10.1002/anie.9…

Advances in electrochemical peptide synthesis and modification dlvr.it/TTCm5T 🧪

On the @J_A_C_S cover: A pyrrolidine dimer on Cu(100) turns a bistable switch into a controllable multilevel system. STM reveals 6 conformations & low-energy, two-step switching via intermolecular coupling. Congrats to the Li lab! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10… @UCSanDiego @UCSDPhySci

¡¡¡Oferta de trabajo!!! Estamos buscando un nuevo miembro para nuestro equipo. Ofrecemos un contrato de investigación para trabajar en un proyecto de almacenamiento de energía solar. Más detalles aquí👇

So great to catch up - 😍😍😍 A real treat to have you at the #esboc2026 chaired by #BenSchumann

We proudly share our latest JACS paper showing that optimized xanthenium photocages can bring light-activated drug release closer to real-world biology. Red-shifted activation, robust uncaging, and compelling validation beyond standard 2D assays. #JACS pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Our latest contribution to the design of new sunscreens is out! advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad… With @beatriz_penin @raull233 and @funes_ardoiz @unirioja

I will probably hire a postdoc in the near future. People that are interested in the deep history of biochemistry and mechanisms of molecular evolution, please get in touch.

Registration is now open! 🚨 Don’t miss your chance to join us in Alicante and meet our confirmed plenary speakers! 👉 Stay tuned for more details! photocat2026.com/registration

#photocat26 Plenary Speaker Prof. Dr. Olga Garcia Mancheño from the University of Münster. 🚩Alicante, Spain. 21-25 September 2026 Come and join us! photocat2026.com

Este año @cientifica_lola ha visitado a varios cursos de Primaria en el CEIP Angel Ganivet con unas científicas del @IBVF_Sevilla para hablar de cianobacterias, compartimentos y plásticos biodegradables 💚 @unisevilla @cicCartuja

We are very excited to share our lastest published work, together with @Dychemlab We hope you enjoy it! shorturl.at/zaOyT @uclm #AIE @Scopus @ElsevierChem @Sciencedirect

We are looking for a highly motivated Postdoct to join our group, to work on the development of photochemical reactions compatible with DELs! If you are interested, please send an email to manuel.nappi@usc.es. More info here: nappichem.com

🚨 Come and join the team! I have a 4-year PhD position available at The Francis Crick Institute. 🧪 You'll build on our LAMP-D technology to design metal-based molecules to develop new therapeutic strategies. Application deadline: 17 March. crick.ac.uk/careers-study/…

While traditionally used as stoichiometric reagents, #HeavierAlkaliMetalAmides have emerged as versatile #catalysts, find out more in this #perspective by @SanchezRoaDavid @DCBPunibern @ACSCatalysis in collaboration with #RabMulvey @StrathChem pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

After a long journey, we are so happy to share that our last work on the discovery of a new CO2 activation mode for hydrocarboxylation reactions has been published in @J_A_C_S, by @ManuAzzi, @maanuurm, @sainarayanan89, @J_Scarfiello and Jesus A. Varela! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

@EvaHeviaGroup @Pacifichem Oh Eva!! You met Rory 😍😍😍😍 - Hug him from me ♥️

Bye bye @Pacifichem 🌺after participating in two exciting symposia #maingroupchem #allkalimetals It was great to catch up with many friends from far away and also to meet many new colleagues!

"Los percebes son carísimos!" Si. Ya. Claro. 😏👇
