From lab to company: back from #ucddublin, and tomorrow it’s off to #CharlesRiverLaboratories in Harlow.
No rest for the e-curious ⚡And yet I have a new reaction waiting for me in my fumehood… Exciting times ahead!

⚡️ On the road again! ⚡️
Heading to University College Dublin next Wednesday (15/10) to share some of our latest electrosynthesis work from the University of Greenwich, thanks to Aniello Palma for the invite!

Time to electrify the Liffey and bring it more currents ☘️⚡️🇮🇪

⚡️Farewell to Swern⚡️Out in @chemicalscience.rsc.org!

Meet eCarbonyls (aka eSwern) from our lab #UniofGreenwich!
No smell (if you work cleanly!), no cryogenics, no oxalyl chloride. Just clean aldehydes at room temp using electricity.
Yes, we have that in stock for you!

🇩🇰 Honoured to be external opponent for Rune Kjærgaard Groven’s PhD at #AarhusUni :a tour de force in synthesis, electrochemistry, batteries & polymers!

Best part? He celebrated with a hot dog truck! 🌭🤣

48h in DK = great science & new ideas 😎 #ChemSky

Another week, another trip! This time, about hashtag#battery chemistry! Excited to be visiting @AarhusUni from 2–4 October.
If any colleagues in Denmark are available, I’d be delighted to connect and chat about chemistry or simply meet over coffee. #ChemSky

Another week, another country to ⚡️ electrify ⚡️ - on my way to #Riga and #Latvia for the infamous #Walden symposium! #ChemWithoutBorder #ChemSky

⚡️ Excited to head to #Riga for the 14th Paul Walden Symposium! I’ll share some of our latest (maybe even unpublished) #UniofGreenwich work.

Thanks to Edgars Suna for the kind invite. From seeing the Walden inversion as a student to now speaking at the Symposium: the loop feels closed.

⚡️ It’s great to share chemistry, but it’s even better to meet colleagues and friends for a viva! Thanks Amanda, Gadi, Marta, Bas, @chrisslootweg.bsky.social, Sonja, @tnoel82.bsky.social, Tati & Ron for the inspiring discussions.
Brilliant, kind colleagues with huge ground for collaboration! #ChemSky

⚡️ Great to visit #SygnatureDiscovery last week and share our latest electrochemistry work from #UoGreenwich!

Inspiring chats with their brilliant scientists, and yes, sometimes I even develop transformations industry actually finds useful 😉

Thanks Jonathan Golec & team! #ChemSky

🔬 #Stir or not to stir?
A new study (Huang et al. www.thieme-connect.de/products/ejo...) tested 329 reactions and found almost no difference in yield between stirred and unstirred conditions, even at kilo scale and for eChem!
⚡ Maybe not every flask needs to be whirring away!

⚡ Interested in zapping molecules? Our lab is expanding collaboration horizons and training the next generation of electrosynthetic chemists.

European researchers can even join us through funded Erasmus+ research visits. 🌍🔬

Get in touch, we’d love to connect!

Little weekend trip to #Belgium to see my parents. In Belgium you’re officially « old » when you go to the #chocolate shop and decide to pick your chocolates one by one and create a massive queue behind you. Well… I am officially that guy now 🤣

Farewell to Caterina Campinoti from The uni of Pisa🇮🇹 , a brilliant PhD student & wonderful guest in our lab! She brought science, smiles & picked up a UK survival skill: pizza-making 🍕⚡️ She’ll be missed! Get in touch if you’d like to intern too! #ChemSky
