Chemistry and cycling lover. I enjoy boron chemistry and create organophosphorus molecules for as many things as I can | Postdoc at Uni Erlangen | Habilitation at Uni Heidelberg | Now at Uni Castilla-La Mancha. #ERCCoG grantee, #PhosphorusHeterocyclesRock
One of the most rewarding parts of science is contributing to society in any way possible.🌱Very happy to share that high school Cañada de la Encina (Iniesta) has won a regional project to improve sustainability in vegetable gardens, in collaboration with our group! So excited!🤗 congratulations!

It was like a dream...I started alone in Heidelberg. Soon we made the impossible: develop a new type of molecule!Today at the @uclm.es, we celebrated the 10th anniversary of our first publication on phosphaphenalenes and with a dreamed group of scientists! I feel so grateful 🙏🙏

August = best month to work, no admin! 🎉
I am really surprised myself: I am overwhelmed by (very exciting) news:😯
-> + 3 new group members (🤗)
-> paper accepted with Prof. Medina
-> paper accepted with Prof. Baumgartner
-> paper accepted with Prof. Mas
Couldn’t be happier! 😊

Deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Prof. Joachim Ballmann, a kind, generous colleague and truly good person, always willing to help others. You'll always be remembered for who you were.
RIP Joachim.

Some people still don't understand how much effort is required for highly competitive grants. Sometimes you get close and still miss. No shame in that. It’s part of the game. Get up, learn and fight again. That’s how science moves forward. 💪🔬💪 I will be back in next call!!

Two articles submitted this week! Wherever they land, any one submission is always a reason to celebrate and be proud of the team’s hard work. 🎉💪🤗

For me, progress in research wouldn’t be possible without #biketherapy.
(and nothing like your dad beating you up🤭😊)
In science, protecting your mental health is everything.
What is your therapy? #runtherapy ? #dancetherapy ? #arttherapy ? #musictherapy ? #swimtherapy ?

when I was a student, I loved to study about the fascinating phosphorus dendrimers!
We now had the opportunity to collaborate with the chemistry superheroes I was studying at the time investigating the interactions of siRNA with cationic phosphorus dendrimers. 🙏🙏 1/2
