Congratulations to Georgilett Perez-Bedwell (MSc at Prof Colette Boskovic Group), who won the Australian Journal of Chemistry Prize for Best Oral Presentation at last week’s Royal Australian Chemical Institute Victorian Inorganic Chemistry Postgraduate Symposium. Georgie’s talk was “Redox Activity in Cerium(III/IV) Complexes”

Journal Manager Patrick Hannah has been at #IC24 this week, chatting to delegates about Australian Journal of Chemistry, as well as catching up with Editor-in-Chief george koutsantonis & Social Media Ed Masnun Naher. Be sure to drop by our stand tomorrow for a chat! #Inorganic24 #AusJChem RACI Inorganic Chemistry Division

🌊🦈 New paper reveals alarming levels of mercury (Hg) in top predators, sharks and ray, from the north-eastern coast of Brazil. Higher Hg concentrations were found in muscle tissues, and ~76% of the studied taxa exceeded local consumption safety limits.

#AusJChem speaker winner Lee Cameron at #IC24 from Curtin University “I synthesise and crystallise photoluminescent iridium-lanthanide complexes to study the mechanisms that enable their luminescent properties.”

#AusJChem speaker winner Konstantin Stracke at #IC24 from Uni of Adelaide “I study how molecules form structures like molecular LEGO using simulations, focusing on MOFs. They change forms with gases & temperature, revealing insights labs can’t easily see.” doi.org/10.1039/D4NR01…
