The EuChemS organometallic division seeks nominations for awarding the Fischer Wilkinson Prize 2025 @EuCOMC2025 in Bern — nominate your hero! Deadline 18 March, form at euchems.eu/divisions/orga… @EvaHeviaGroup #OrganometalicChemistryRocks

We are loving this! Let's support the MAST Upgrade tokamak on the @LEGOIdeas website: #content_nav_tabs" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">ideas.lego.com/projects/80e49… This LEGO model is a meticulously crafted representation of the MAST Upgrade (MAST-U) tokamak, one of the world’s largest operational spherical tokamak, located in the UK and run by the UK Atomic Energy Authority (@UKAEAofficial. Spherical tokamaks like MAST-U are at the cutting edge of fusion research, paving the way toward achieving clean and sustainable fusion energy. The model captures the intricate details of this advanced fusion device, including the central column, poloidal and toroidal field coils, armoured plates designed to withstand intense plasma heat loads, vessel port windows, and gas valves. Built at an approximate scale of 1:10, this set provides a visually stunning and educational tribute to one of humanity’s most ambitious scientific pursuits. It needs 1,000 Supports to reach the next stage so follow the link, above, to add your voice!

Two PhD studentships @UoMChemistry @LeverhulmeTrust that we are co-supervising are currently being advertised - please RT and check out the adverts below if you are interested: findaphd.com/phds/project/c… findaphd.com/phds/project/d…

Merry Crystalmas and happy diffraction

@millsgroupchem @ChemicalScience @jeff_jeffty_jef @GemGransbury @nfchilton @UoMChemistry Awesome complex, crazy to see 6 fluorobenzenes coordinated to a metal

Sophie has lead a paper now available asap in @ChemicalScience on a new toy for synthetic chemists to play with: half-sandwich fluorobenzene-bound rare earth complexes @jeff_jeffty_jef @GemGransbury @nfchilton @UoMChemistry pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Our work has been in the top 5 most read @Orgmet_ACS papers published within the last month! Don't miss it ⚡️ @chaplinlab @ALGC_VUB

A great opportunity to explore research in environmental science, including a collaborative PhD project with us on nitrous oxide hydrogenation @warwickchem. Enquiries welcome!

.@NilRoigVidal's first first author paper, highlighting the important role of electrostatics in metal carbonyl bonding, is out now ASAP in @Orgmet_ACS. Time to update the Dewar-Chatt-Duncanson model! A fun collaboration with Mercedes Alonso @ALGC_VUB doi.org/10.1021/acs.or…

Proud to fly the flag 🇳🇿

My delivery was pretty rubbish, thanks ⁦@amazon⁩

Nice to unearth this fantastic paper on agostic C–H–Ir bonding from 1981 that is affiliated to @warwickchem. doi.org/10.1039/C39810…

Supported by funding from the @LeverhulmeTrust and credit to @NilRoigVidal for the great TOC graphic

Copper(I) Catalysed Diboron(4) Reduction of Nitrous Oxide. First paper from @Thomas_M_Hood’s postdoc available now in final form and open access @angew_chem. Devised over a beer with David Liptrot at Dalton2023. doi.org/10.1002/anie.2…
