📢New perspective on light responsive imine-based systems out now in @chemicalscience.rsc.org with @jiarongwu.bsky.social 💡🚨🔦 This is part of the 2025 Leading Investigators Collection, Thank you to the reviewers for input 🙏 #hot #photoswitch #imine imineswitch.com

📢 🎉🎊 Really honoured to announce that I have been awarded an @erc.europa.eu StG for our project (HeliOS)💡🌞This project will be looking at out-of-equilibrium helical structures... more on this soon... (big thanks to those who helped along the way🙏) imineswitch.com #ERCStG

🚨📢Out now in #Chem, @jiarongwu.bsky.social and I figure out how to perturb a non-photoresponsive reaction(🌚) out of equilibrium using our imine-based photoswitches🔦💡This is achieved using a light-responsive transimination!(🌝)

@jiarongwu.bsky.social gave an excellent (!!!) talk on her work at BiOrgMCT in Sofia, Bulgaria. 💡🚨🚥 Very proud!!! 😀 (and jealous of her artistic/animation skills)

A bit late, but I wanted to say thanks for the support from those that voted for me to receive this award for my presentation at the chemiedozentungang! It means a lot to us! 😀🙏

The struggle is real. #exotic #condiment #sarson's #vinegar

It's that time of year again, Happy Die Hard day!

Excellent presentation from @jiarongwu.bsky.social at #MASC2024 in York, UK! Very proud! #chemsky 💯💯💯

We had a nice #xmas dinner last night with associated co-workers (feat. @jiarongwu.bsky.social, Deepu and Lasse). Together, we have had a wild and action packed year, I couldn't have asked for a better team to be doing science with! 🇬🇧🇨🇳🇩🇪🇮🇳 #chemsky

I swear that it is always the Germans who have the Wurst ideas! Sorry to my French friends...

The #chemistree has arrived and it is not even December yet...
1 coffee ☕ = 1 decoration for the tree 🎄.
My office is next door so I get a nice piney whiff every time I open my door! #chemsky

Alright, so for today, I introduce this strange crystal that has been quietly growing in the lab. No one knows what it is or when it was initially made (before I arrived to Germany).
Anyway, it's a nice chunky one with an "X" inside. Maybe it's not even a crystal 😂 #chemsky

So for today... This cover (ChemComm) was designed and assembled by @jiarongwu.bsky.social 🎨 to represent the diversity of properties achieved for our iminobispyrazole photoswitches! 💡With initial inspiration from “The Dark Side of the Moon” album cover 🎸🎵 #chemsky

and for today... here is some previous cover art! I had to hide this in case of any infringements, but I was pretty proud of our take on an "NME" magazine cover. A fair bit of effort that I had to leave out 😅 A few easter-eggs for the #blink-182 #sum41 #theclash fans in the #chemsky community! 😃

It's always hard to start on a new platform, make sure to give Jiarong (@jiarongwu.bsky.social) a follow. She has done the majority of the heavy lifting our groups papers 😃 #chemsky (yes... I was in need for a haircut in this photo...)
