New @wisuprachem.bsky.social article out now! We’ve spoken to our community about what it’s like having an academic career and a growing and changing family. Thank you to everyone who helped make this happen ❤️

This paper came out of probably the largest team I’ve ever worked with and some serious data analysis. Huge credit to a fantastic collaborators (pity none of the team except @profdraper.bsky.social here) for making the experiments possible. advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

I have a 2 year PDRA position available in my group focusing on synthetic organic chemistry for supramolecular materials. Please apply using the link below if you’d be a good fit for the role in Glasgow @uofgchem.bsky.social www.jobs.gla.ac.uk/job/research...

It has been an honour to be a part of WISC from its beginning and especially during the last 3 years as Chair. I am excited to see how WISC grows under the leadership of @profdraper.bsky.social with its new directions and name. I am looking forward to continue supporting WISC on the Advisory Board

Absolutely delighted to be the new chair of WISC! Thanks Anna for all your work. I’m excited to see what we can do for the community next ❤️

Interested in joining WISC to make real change in the community?! We want you to join us!

🚨WISC is excited to announce we are changing our name to Women and Inclusion in Supramolecular Chemistry! ➡️ www.womeninsuprachem.com #WomeninSTEM #EDI #SupramolecularChemistry #ChemSky

Giving someone an enforced leave day isn’t a reward if you haven’t also decreased the amount of work they have to do 🙄

🚨(1/3) We are excited to announce that the 2025 MASC/WISC EDIA Award🏆 is to Dr Aisha Bismillah, King’s College, London, (@anbismillah.bsky.social) @rsc-masc.bsky.social mascgroup.co.uk/masc-wisc-ed... #ChemSky #SupramolecularChemistry #WomenInSTEM #MASC2025

Congrats to Prof Emily Draper (@profdraper.bsky.social) of @uofgchem.bsky.social, who has won a @leverhulmetrust.bsky.social Prize to help advance her groundbreaking work on the development of more sustainable devices. Read more here: www.gla.ac.uk/news/headlin...

Delighted to have been awarded a Philip Leverhulme Prize from @leverhulme.ac.uk thank you for the recognition and support from the Trust throughout my career, and to my collaborators, colleagues and all the researchers who worked in the group ❤️

Last week I had the pleasure of working for the first time ever on B-07 at @diamondlightsource.bsky.social with Josh, who I did my UG and PhD with at Liverpool. Even found a MChem graduation photo of us. Getting to collaborate with friends is amazing ❤️

So local holidays are super unhelpful when your employer doesn’t recognise them but your childcare does 🙃 #glasgowfair

23% of first-generation students said they felt like impostors, compared to just 2% of non-first-generation students. They were less likely to be invited to summer lab placements and less likely to report having family support.

New paper out today 🎉 looking at how perylenes can be heat cooled to give new properties advanced.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

School of Chemistry travel mugs looking so good! 👩🏻‍🔬

I’m raising money for MacMillan Cancer Support and will be taking part in HYROX Dublin in November and will be doing various other silly stuff in between now and then to fundraise. If you would like to watch me suffer/donate link is below 💕 www.justgiving.com/team/amyly

The new rheometer has a mirror on it… waited almost a year for this shiny new guy

We are looking at measuring thermal conductivity of some organic thin films, but are struggling to design a set up to do this on a sensible scale. Any ideas?

I have a funded studentship for UK and EU settled students available to start in my lab in October. Project will involve self-assembled organic chromics for sensors. eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com?url=https%3A...

Nice and quiet in my office today 🙉

On my way to MASC this morning, already had one cancelled train… Christmas travel is the worst

Running along the Thames path this morning in Abingdon, no lochs but lakes will do nicely.

Tiny chicken flying so high

How’s is your morning? I’ve been fighting with a paper template 🙃

We are doing some in situ irradiation SANS on our photoresponsive materials. One side is UV light and the other side orange/red light. Seeing if the light changes the morphology! I love an interesting sample environment!

Loving the new camera in Sans2D so that I can spy on my samples! Also seeing the shutter open!

Hello from Sans2D this weekend! Let’s hope the neutrons are in our favour the next couple of days 🤞
