Some recent stuff on electrocatalysis: a wonderful demonstration of how a mononuclear cobalt complex can efficiently catalyze OER (doi.org/10.1021/acsmat…), following overall water splitting by an activated Co4 cluster at a very low cell overpotential (doi.org/10.1021/acscat…)

Some recent stuff on SMMs: Magnetic Anisotropy in Oh Complexes (Aditya) (doi.org/10.1039/D3DT04…) Co(II) Tetrahedral SIMs (Gargi) (doi.org/10.1021/acs.in…) Field-Induced SIM Behavior (Aditya) (doi.org/10.1039/D3DT01…) Thanks - Rajaraman & group for calculations

Continuing our recent work on OER/HER, Savi demonstrates how a solution-processed Li-deficient Co-PO4 exhibits superior OER activity, delivering a current density of 10mA/cm2 at an overpotential of 294 mV, outperforming other reported LiCo phosphates pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

We have a vacant position for an operator of single-crystal X-ray diffractometer and Mossbauer Spectrometer New Chemistry Unit JNCASR Bangalore . The position immediately available. Last date Sept 5th. jncasr.ac.in/announcements/…

Why is it so hard for universities to understand that experimental wet labs work best with the following setup: --Student/postdoc/RA non-hot desk offices next to the labs --*Private* offices for PIs that are in the same building--ideally the same floor as their labs

Finally we are also thankful to Prof. Sandeep Gupta for delivering a wonderful talk on "Molecular Engineering to Maximize Magnetic Anisotropy in 3d and 4f Single-Ion Magnets" at the Department of Chemistry, IIT Hyderabad. Thanks to IIT Hyderabad and SERB for funding.
