Day three began with a brilliant lecture from Professor Ivan Huc @akhuc.bsky.social @lmumuenchen.bsky.social "Protein Recognition and Mimicry with Aromatic Foldamers" #FoldNetUK #Foldamers

An #orgchem #postdoc position funded by EPSRC is available to work with me and Manuel Müller in the Chemistry Dept of @kingsnmes.bsky.social, along with Prof Craig Butts at the University of Bristol to develop a new generation of foldamer catalysts. tinyurl.com/yc62fa7h #chempostdoc #chemjobs

Congratulations to Manu for his great communication on his (numerous!) PhD works on DNA mimics at the Foldamer Symposium! 🧬

Discussions in action at the #FoldNetUK 9th International Symposium on Foldamers

A fantastic start to the day: the @newjchem.rsc.org sponsored Keynote Lecture delivered by Professor Chris Hunter (University of Cambridge), with an introduction from Professor Andrew Hamilton, President Emeritus of @nyu.edu

Two of the first three talks at the @foldnetuk.bsky.social symposium are at least a little bit about the origins of life, this bodes well
