In @science.org this week, a team at Lawrence Berkeley lab did some practice runs with cerium and then raced to sandwich berkelium between two carbon rings before the radioactive decay wreaked too much havoc--read all about the Bk-C bonds here! chemsky🧪 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

📢📢 Two PhD positions and one summer internship available in our group to work within the ERC Starting Grant RadicalProtON project. Located at the Faculty of Chemistry of the University of the Basque Country, Spain. More details on each position and how to apply below 👇

Deadline #PhD position extended until 09.03 - Apply online👇🏼 stellenangebote.uni-marburg.de/jobposting/3... Please RT❤️ - Thanks

Fully funded 3.5-year PhD studentship! Come and work on alkaline earth metal organometallic chemistry and metal-metal bonding @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social! More details via the link: www.imperial.ac.uk/chemistry/po...

Hi there #ChemSky! It's nice to be back on the socials... I'm mostly here for science chat, friendly gossip & the odd bit of shameless self-promotion. 🦋

Very pleased to see that the Schlenk Line Survival Guide recently passed 500,000 views!🥳 Happy to also share that the Organometallics tutorial has been translated to French🇫🇷 and Spanish🇪🇸, and are available to download as PDFs from the resources webpage: schlenklinesurvivalguide.com/downloads/

Exactly. I've said this countless times re: responding to reviewers. t.co/IX2doZkNbR

We report the first stable hexavalent nickel complex! It's formed by reductive addition of three Be-Be bonds at nickel(0), producing Ni(BeCp)6 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Come work with us at Manchester! If you've got any questions about applying for this PhD studentship, send me an email or DM.

JOB ALERT! 🚨We have an open PhD position to work in the field of first-row transition metal catalysis. 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬Application deadline 19th January 2025. For more details and to submit an application, please refer to the official posting here: acortar.link/Y34YYd #chemsky

As part of the CATALOOP doctoral network, my group is looking for potential candidates for PhD research in the field of data-driven asymmetric catalysis. Please see here for a list of CATALOOP projects available: cataloop.eu Also check out the openings in the groups of the other PIs involved.

I am very honored to be among the chemists that have been awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant. Many thanks to ERC_Research and all the co-workers, mentors, colleagues, and friends for their support. Stay tuned for #AGILE chemistry and upcoming job openings. erc.europa.eu/sites/defaul...

Here at Leicester we are recruiting 2xGTA/PhD students (start date September 2025) with several projects to choose from, including one in our group. If you like rare earths and want to make some crazy molcules, get in touch! #phd #phdlife #chemsky le.ac.uk/study/resear...

#ChemSky This Preprint by @sophieguti.bsky.social has got it all: Natural Product synthesis, Chelators, Ln, Curium luminescence, mass spec methods, bacteria! doi.org/10.26434/che... Comparative Binding Studies of the Chelators Methylolanthanin and Rhodopetrobactin B to Lanthanides and Ferric Iron.🧪🧵

We have two openings for PDRAs working in iron catalysis for organic synthesis as part of a funded EPSRC Fellowship. Applicants with strong backgrounds in inorganic synthesis and organometallic chemistry are strongly encouraged to apply. Link below: my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecru...

Hi #ChemSky! Please enjoy this video from my first year #chemistry lecture demonstrating the principle of triboluminescence by crushing crystals of the copper complex, [Cu(NCS)(py)2(PPh3)]! 😍 This also works with simple quartz crystals #RealTimeChem 🧪🥽

Only 2 days left to apply for a summer of #uranium chemistry in a great city with a young and enthusiastic research group! #chemsky 🧪⚗️ #Hamburg

A double first-time for me: My first from @uni-hamburg.de and first single-author publication: Insights into the uranium phosphine bond in [UCp3(PR3)] complexes. My favourite metal with one of my favourite ligands! #chemsky #compchem #uranium chemistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Vorschlag fürs nächste Bundeskabinett: Der Verkehrsminister bekommt keinen Dienstwagen, sondern ausschließlich eine Bahncard 100. Ich schwöre euch, nach drei Wochen zieht der nachts mitm Hämmerchen los und saniert eigenhändig ein paar ICE-Strecken.

OK, folks. It took less time than I thought - the Women in Chemistry pack is now full of magnificent ladies of #Chemsky. You can follow them (us) all by clicking the "Follow all" button.

The community turned out to be quite large, so I'm making a sequel: go.bsky.app/9H4Ldqx If you'd like to be in it, or you know someone who should be here, please let me know. Please follow, share, join, and generally - be supportive! 👩‍🔬

Would you like to spend the next summer in beautiful Hamburg doing some uranium chemistry? If you're an undergraduate student from the UK, Ireland or North America, you have 11 days left to apply for two fully funded research internships via the DAAD: www.daad.de/rise/en/rise... #chemsky

I haven't found a pack for Women in Science yet so I'm making one. Write if you want to be added (or removed)! Rather small ATM. #WomeninChemistry #WomeninScience #WomeninSTEM go.bsky.app/LjumNEg

Want to give a good scientific talk? TELL A GOOD STORY. don’t show the audience every result, don’t give us one slide on every paper you’ve ever published. If I want to read your resume, I will. Teach me something, tell me a story.

📢𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗸 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘆📢 I am running a survey to understand Schlenk line design preferences and to gather information about techniques/training. Please do take some time to complete the survey and share with others! www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/Schlenk/

Yesterday we had a lab warming party to celebrate the milestone of finally having our lab up and running! After a one-year wait we're very excited to finally get some chemistry going in this space. #newPI #fblockrocks #chemsky 🎉⚗️🧪

Thanks for visiting and showing us some fascinating organometallic chemistry!

We're highly excited to finally welcome Clara into the new lab! Can't wait to soon get some chemistry going @uni-hamburg.de Thanks MBraun for the smooth delivery involving a crane and the fast setup 🧪⚗️ #newPI #chemsky #myfirstglovebox

Haushaltskürzungen beim Radverkehr!? „Es klingt wie ein schlechter Scherz: Statt beim klimabelastenden Autoverkehr oder Regionalflughäfen zu sparen, will die Bundesregierung 2024 ausgerechnet beim Radverkehr den Rotstift ansetzen", so Frank Masurat. 👉 sueddeutsche.de/wirtschaft/h...

Die Ampel will jetzt das Programm "Fahrradparken an Bahnhöfen" kürzen. 1,5 Mio. geplante Abstellanlagen würden wegfallen. Es ist genau diese Geringschätzung, die dafür sorgt, dass Fahrradstellplätze im Autoland so wie links in Berlin aussehen und nicht so wie rechts in Amsterdam.
