Yesterday’s monthly student seminar in the Department of Molecular Chemistry & Materials Science featured excellent talks by Mariia Rodionova (Shimanovich group) and Georgy Chistov (Bar-Shir Lab). Great science, great discussion! 🔬👏 #StudentSeminar #ChemSci

Weizmann Institute of Science researchers uncover physical laws explaining why cracks in materials break their symmetry while spreading. The findings lay the groundwork for the design of more resilient materials >> bit.ly/cracking-Eng

Our latest paper is now out in J. Am. Chem. Soc. ! We unveil a new strategy to access elusive free oxoboranes—highly reactive species—via bridged boranoanthracenes and aromatization-driven extrusion. Congratulations to the team! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Today the Weizmann Women in Chemistry held a Krav Maga self-defense workshop. Thanks to everyone who joined—we learned how to defend ourselves and with good energy!

Yesterday, at the Department of Chemical & Biological Physics Lunch Club Seminar, we had the pleasure of hearing Gilad Haran speak about protein machines and the curious case of ClpB.
