Our work on the unidirectional motion of a CD is now in the September issue of Chem and on the cover! Many thanks to the whole team and @cp-chem.bsky.social for the highlight! @ipcm-sorbonne.bsky.social @msollogoub.bsky.social @enxuliu.bsky.social www.cell.com/chem/fulltex...

In this piece for Aeon, I argue that, while nanotechnology is now a very real and mature field, a popular early vision of it was an example of what I am calling an "oneiric technology": a fantasy of the sort that Silicon Valley loves. aeon.co/essays/no-su...

Joyful day for the lab! 🎉 🥳💫🍻 Fritzi defended her PhD thesis with outstanding honors. Congratulations on this amazing thesis! Here is a list of some of her projects: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/... www.cell.com/cell-reports... www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I‘m thrilled to see our group‘s inaugural paper published in @science.org! Huge thanks to everyone who contributed to this project!

Our pipeline to compute thermal barriers of photoswitches💡 is out!🥳 We especially focused on NBDs for MOST🔋 and imines, but also stilbenes and DAEs. Try it out! You need just chemdraws and freeware to get libraries computed doi.org/10.1002/cptc...

It was a great pleasure to host Prof. Paolo Melchiorre for his brilliant #GDCh lecture at @nat.fau.de! Paolo’s talk highlighted how core #photochemical insights spark innovation in #AsymmetricSynthesis! @gdch.de @dubelab.bsky.social @spanlabfau.bsky.social @harder-research.bsky.social

What a fantastic outing with our Organic Chemistry Institute today – an amazing team and a great atmosphere all around!! 🚣‍♂️👍 @dubelab.bsky.social @ekatl.bsky.social @nat.fau.de @fau.de

Honored to receive the #RSCPrizes Corday-Morgan Mid-Career Prize for Chemistry. Credit has to go to the hard work and creativity of many outstanding researchers over 10 years at 3 institutions (@qmul.bsky.social, @unisouthampton.bsky.social, @unibirmingham.bsky.social). Short🧵

Our recent work on #organoautocatalyzed transamination metathesis is featured on the #FrontCover of #AngewandteChemie! Congrats to Volker, Florian, Jonas!🎉 @nat.fau.de #chemsky #organoautocatalysis #transamination onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

How does Near-Infrared-Photoswitching work? Our newest research delivers an ultrafast molecular movie of the all-red-light photoswitch peri-Anthracenethioindigo (PAT) in action! Aided by excited state theory, its mechanism of motion is fully revealed.

Der Antrag für den neuen Sonderforschungsbereich "ChemPrint – Gedruckte Halbleiter der nächsten Generation" war erfolgreich! @ctfm-lab.bsky.social www.nat.fau.de/2025/06/04/n...

Deeply honored that our story was chosen for the cover! 🎉 💫🧬
