I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

Next STAMMTISCH is coming up. ⠀ Prof. Siegfried Schindler uses Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality🥽 in his Labs⚗️, with exiting insights. In our Stammtisch, he will give us a look under the hood: "AI and extended reality in chemistry – Quo vadis?" 📆27.02.2026 14 CET⠀ https://t1p.de/nx11o

Today is the #InternationalDayOfWomenAndGirlsInScience 👩‍🔬 This graphic highlights women of the periodic table, the elements they discovered, and the two elements named after women. Plenty more graphics on women in chemistry here: www.compoundchem.com/category/wom...#InternationalDayOfWomenAndGirlsInScience #ChemSky 🧪

Um Doppelstrukturen zu vermeiden und internationale Anschlussfähigkeit zu sichern, arbeiten #DIN Deutsches Institut für Normung e. V. und #NFDI zusammen. 📰 Warum das sinnvoll ist, erklären wir in diesem gemeinsamen Artikel: www.din.de/de/din-und-s... #fdm #rdm #forschungsdaten

Where is your data? Today marks the start of LoveDataWeek26 with this motto. Time for us to remember that data is best archived in repositories, FAIR. For data from publicly funded research, this is mandatory. And the DFG monitors this. More: https://t1p.de/5i2m7 PS: graphic's a tribute to xkcd.

„Wo sind eure Beweise?“ Immer wieder ist das unter Beiträgen mit Klima-Bezug zu lesen. Hierzu heute mal eine Einordnung.

Dmitri Mendeleev was born #OTD (8 Feb) in 1834. He's known for recognising periodic patterns in the properties of elements, using these to predict the properties of undiscovered elements. And, of course, the periodic table! wp.me/p4aPLT-8UU#OTD #ChemSky 🧪

Have you ever discovered your predecessor has taken data with them? Hopefully not, but it happens! On @chemistryviews.bsky.social we present 10 foolproof (&reality-checked) ways to lose your data. Plus, of course, how you can prevent it & the tools we provide to do so. Link in comments ##chemistry

Find the right home for your chemistry data 🧪 Not all repositories are equal — picking one that matches your data type makes your work easier to find, reuse, and cite. NFDI4Chem helps you choose a repository that fits: from Chemotion, nmrXiv & MassBank EU to RADAR4Chem. https://t1p.de/7xyzm

Chatbots offer a magnificent bribe - a fast, frictionless route to information that bypasses the discomfort of learning. In this op-ed, we describe this as a Faustian bargain, in which we trade away what it means to be human & universities trade away their value www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

Happy to go on with this great team into the second funding phase!

Tomorrow! #openscience in chemistry!

Am Montag geht’s in Mainz um Transformation. Auf mehreren Ebenen. Technisch. Gesellschaftlich. Und auch: Persönlich. Etwa um meine eigene; zum Klima-Akzeptist. Es wird zwei Perspektiven geben. Von zwei teils ähnlichen und teils sehr verschiedenen Akteuren. Ab 18:15 im Hörsaal RW1. Und im Livestream.

@deNBI @dalia a big output here was the development of the OERbservatory Python package (https://github.com/data-literacy-alliance/oerbservatory) which serves as an interoperability hub with the DALIA, TeSS, and Schemas.org data models for open educational resources (OERs), learning materials […]

I know many of you who follow me don't work in climate science, but this is the biggest story in climate right now. Breaking up NCAR makes us all less safe and is another act of self-harm that will take decades to recover from.

Charles Tapley Hoyt has written about his experience at the @deNBI BioHackathon Germany 2025 on the "On the Path to Machine-actionable Training Materials" team with the DALIA, TeSS, and Bioschemas teams #bhg2025 cthoyt.com/2025/12/09/b...

Neue Broschüre „Erlebte Chancengleichheit im Spiegel der Zeit": Die Seniorexpert:innen (SEC) der GDCh haben Chemiker:innen aus Ost und West zu Wort kommen lassen, die in den 1960er bis 1980er Jahren studierten. Sie berichten, wie sich Chancengleichheit im Beruf damals anfühlte. gdch.link/z8ec

Heute vor zehn Jahren wurde das Pariser Abkommen vereinbart. Damals waren gerade 400 ppm CO₂ überschritten. Heute sind es 427 ppm. Und mehr ist dazu nicht zu sagen. Das ist der physikalische Maßstab. Für so ziemlich alles Weitere.

Studying chemistry? Then your data must be accurate. Our series What exactly is? explains briefly and clearly how to document and organise #research #data correctly. Perfect for internships, laboratories, and final theses. 👉 Playlist on Youtube: https://t1p.de/7vt8y ##chemistry #study

An entertaining and worthwhile article about the reasons not to publish FAIR 😊

Thinking only of Rosalind Franklin today, and what was stolen from her (and so many other female scientists alongside her).

When people learn with ChatGPT instead of following their own searches, they end up knowing less, caring less, and producing worse advice, even when the facts are the same. Friction is an essential ingredient for learning! Convenience makes us shallow. academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/ar...

„Dann geh halt Bäume pflanzen!“ Manchmal lese ich das in unfreundlichen Kommentarzeilen. Zur 35-jährigen Jubiläumspflanzung des Bergwaldprojekts in meiner lieben Harzer Heimat dazu ein paar Worte. Es geht um nicht weniger als um die Frage: „Was kann ich tun?“ Meine Antwort: „Pflanzt Bäume in Köpfe!“

Boston. Wow.
