A few great days in Vienna at the #schroedinger Institut for a Workshop on #softmatter. Wonderful to meet old Friends from our EU ITN polyamphi from my PHD times. Check out the toilets in the Institute 🫨.

Tomahawk vs chateaubriand. Chateaubriand wins. What a lovely dinner with friends. #chemistswhocook.

A new Tool has arrived in our lab: 2 Photon Lithography by #upnano. Now we can print across all scales. Funded through the @carlzeissstiftung.bsky.social putting it to work for neuroregeneration. #biomaterials #3Dprinting

Fantastic group excursion with the #team. Down the Rhine valley. Great weather, great team, great fun. And huge schnitzel in the evening. Absolutely loved the day.

Adjusting a pool with the very generic pH + and pH - chemicals. Putting my entire academic skillset to work!

Small tour in Ulm; looking froward to my @gdch.de lecture today. Most special hotel built in 1300. “The tilted hotel”

Merisier cherries for the duck. - handpicked by myself - because you cannot buy them. So good.

It’s been a while since I contributed to #chemistswhocook. Tomahawk 🇺🇸 vegetable tian 🇫🇷 and mozzarella di bufala 🇮🇹. Delicious 😋

Some final impressions from the #erc grantees chemistry conference in Porvoo. Thanks so much to @arri-priimagi.bsky.social and Olli Ikkala for organizing this great event!

Just checked in in Porvoo for the 6th #ERC grantees conference. Finland always brings back great memories to my postdoc time @erc.europa.eu

🚀 New diffusion mechanism in biomolecular #condensates!
In our latest work in @natnano.nature.com, we report ballistic wave diffusion — a fundamentally different transport mode featuring ultrasharp fronts that propagate linearly in time. Congrats to Weixiang Chen! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Spent a great day for the @gdch.de lecture in Bayreuth. It was great to speak in the lecture hall I once had lectures in, in what feels ages ago. Thank you to Andre Groeschel, Johannes Brendel and Markus Retsch. still beer available in the Mensa #bavaria @unibayreuth.bsky.social

A masterpiece by Oliver Skarsetz: So many things are possible now! Physical intelligence here means simplicity in design!! Read about this new paradigm in soft robotics here: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemr... #hydrogels #softrobotics #actuators #3dprinting #lifelike #intelligent

The concept is generalizable to many stimuli and overcomes complex external actuation scenarios with different light angles or light sources. The ratchet/Kinetic asymmetry is built into the material. FEM simulations accelerate discovery. We show micro- and macroscale machines!
