@LucaDellAmicoLD @Er_Goti @ChemicalScience @ChemRxiv @discunipd @UniPD_Research Congrats Luca and team - very nice piece of work.

It has been a quite long journey - not only a scietific one...we first submitted this work in March. Being in a so competitive field...we all learned a lot. Thanks to all the people involved in particular to @Er_Goti ! @ChemicalScience @ChemRxiv @discunipd @UniPD_Research

Another great application of our Co-Mediated Radical Ligand Transfer (RLT) Photoredox Catalysis Platform for alkene difunctionalization is now @JACS_Au Congrats @SubrataChem, @AJF_Chem, #BesaKadriu @DCBPunibern, @SwissChemistry, #OpenAccess, #chemistry 👉pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2025 #NobelPrize in Chemistry to Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson and Omar M. Yaghi “for the development of metal–organic frameworks.”

** PhD Completion Seminar ** Tom Andrews @ChemistryUoM "Intelligent Automation and Optimisation Methods for Heterogeneous and Non-Ideal Continuous Flow Synthesis Platforms" October 10, 2025 | 12-1 pm | Bio21 Auditorium ALL WELCOME!

A massive ‘thank you’ to these amazing individuals who, on a wintry Melbourne night, participated in showcasing our lab at @UniMelb Science week. Proud to watch our team engage with the public and communicate the impact, and relevance of organic chemistry. Thank you. @SciMelb @ChemistryUoM

🚀 Featured in JACS! @PolyzosAP powers the breakthrough in Electroinduced Reductive & Dearomative Alkene-Aldehyde Coupling. Rapid alternating polarity (rAP) electrolysis made it possible! ⚡️ pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

This week's #Primer is on #flowchemistry, a method for conducting chemical reactions through tubing to increase efficiency and yields. The team, led by @DuncanLBrowne, features the expertise of @BaumannGroupUCD, @PolyzosAP, and @AnnaGSlater. 📖👇 nature.com/articles/s4358…
