Just back from a great trip through Japan & Korea: 7 cities, 6 hotels, 5 talks, 4 flights, 3 lab alumni, 2 countries , 1 mission: (re)connect with old and new friends, discuss science and plan experiments. Thank you all, i.e. Hasi, Haeri Lee & Jacopo Tessarolo for hospitality!

Well, there it is, my first ever paper, published in J. Am. Chem. Soc.! So proud of this work, and many thanks to my co-authors Irene Regeni and Julian Holstein😀. Thanks also Clever Lab for allowing me to do my PhD in his lab! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

In our series on chromophore-based assemblies, Alex walther shows in the #JustAccepted paper J. Am. Chem. Soc. that an azulene-based Pd2L4 cage transforms into a Pd4L8 tetrahedron upon guest binding. Reversibel by adding a competing cage. GRK2376 "Confinement-Controlled Chemistry" Solvation Science doi.org/10.1021/jacs.3…

Cobalt-based heteroleptic cages! Read #justpublished in Angewandte Chemie how Bo used labile Co(II) to assemble multicomponent cages from salphen macrocycles, then stabilized by oxidation to low-spin d6 Co(III).

With David Van Craen on the way to #SupraSys2024 in Goa! Will be a great meeting, bringing together colleagues and friends from Germany and India over the next couple of days! Big thanks to @NiemeyerGroup and Raja Mitra Indian Institute of Technology Goa TU Dortmund Funded by IGSTC Thanks!!!

Hot paper alert 🔥 here is our new preprint on the minimal FeFe-Hydrogenase. We are very proud of this work. Enjoy! Distinct Valence States of the [4Fe4S] Cluster Revealed in the Hydrogenase CrHydA1 | ChemRxiv - go.shr.lc/3XOsrDU

Never to rainy for a group barbecue… and having a good time together!

I defended my PhD after 4 years at Clever Lab's lab last Friday. It still doen't feel exactly real, what a day it was! Thanks to Prof. A. Lützen for agreeing to be my co-examinator, and everyone who helped my over the course of all those eventful years of study😁

No secret that solvents control self-assembly equilibria, but what’s the physical basis? Read our #JustAccepted paper @Angew_Chem with the Kast Group TU Dortmund - a joint exp./theo. study in @DFG_public Cluster of Excellence EXC2033 RESOLV Solvation Science doi.org/10.1002/anie.2…

Dr Joseph Openy from TU Dortmund is visiting Konan FIBER🧬甲南大学先端生命工学研究所 for the exchange program. Clever Lab Great talk!

It was time for the end-of-year update of our useful link website! epfl.ch/labs/lcso/grou…

Take the quiz here: rowansci.com/blog/test-your… And let us know how you do!

Exciting news! On March 1st, I’ll begin my independent career as a Junior Prof at ISIS in Strasbourg! Grateful for all the support, friendships, and memories from my time in Leiden—thank you for everything. Can’t wait to see what the Regeni Lab will discover! #NewPI #letsgo 🧬❤️
