The Young Researcher Symposium for Hard Matter research is now open for registration! This free 2½-day event is designed specifically for early-career researchers working with or interested in synchrotron and neutron techniques. Register: www.linxs.se/events/2025/...

Deadline alert! Symposia submissions for #ICCC46 close September 15 at midnight. This is your chance to shape the program for Odense 2026. 🌍✨ Submit here 👉 iccc2026.com

We are recruiting! Two 24 month postdoc positions are available with @m-l-baker.bsky.social and I, one mainly synthesis and the other measurements of lanthanide SMMs. Links below, deadline 19th Aug - please re-post: www.jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetai... www.jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetai...

Easy, free, fun for kids in the final days of summer- check out our "Try This at Home" activities!

We are looking for candidates to host for EPSRC Postdoctoral Pathway Fellowships. If you are interested in applying and you meet all the criteria on the link below please get in touch with me by e-mail. Deadline 16th August. www.se.manchester.ac.uk/research/fun...

International PhD scholarship round for 2026 is open at ANU. Aspiring scholars with Masters degree, or equivalent (eg Australia/NZ Hons), interested in computational chemistry, quantum information, molecular spins, vibronic coupling, or something in that vein - get in touch!

Come work with me! The synchrotron is hiring a *permanent* MX beamline scientist with chemical crystallography experience. If you like crystals and fixing things, this is the job for you! 👩‍🔬🔧💎🤖 australian-nuclear.contactrh.com/jobs/12/4355...

Crystallographer Helen Dick Megaw was born 118 years ago today. Her studies of the structure of perovskites in the 1940s and 1950s culminated in her 1957 book Ferroelectricity in Crystals which explained their ability to produce electricity and store information. tinyurl.com/mr429bx3 #WomenInSTEM

There are heaps of interesting short reads in the Women in Science Archive for anyone interested in reading about some of the pioneering women across all fields of science and mathematics

🎉 Just out in Chem! @cp-chem.bsky.social "Molecular alloying drives valence change in a van der Waals antiferromagnet" 👉 See: www.cell.com/chem/abstrac... for materials synthesis, and lots of electron, (high-pressure) X-ray, and neutron diffraction and spectroscopy, magnetism and transport.

Scientists discovered that a special arrangement of europium ions connected by organic molecules could be ideal for efficient magnetic cooling at extremely low temperatures.

Like f-elements in unusual oxidation states? Please look at this 4-year #PhD position between Manchester and Peking University to isolate formally divalent molecules and determine their electronic structures with advanced X-ray spectroscopic techniques. www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

An inspiring article by Margaret M. Sheil! Since the early 1900s, pioneering women in Australian chemistry have paved the way for future generations, building a strong network of role models and mentors. #AusJChem #chemistry @csiropublishing.bsky.social Detail- www.publish.csiro.au/CH/CH11182
