A [Cu-4Fe-4S] cluster? Yep, you read that right! We report a new bioinorganic motif in an acetol dehydrogenase and characterized it with our wonderful collaborators from @ribesresearch.bsky.social @lmu.de @cutsail-lab.bsky.social @ksgchem.bsky.social @mpi-mr.bsky.social @hhu.de 🧪 #chemsky

Congratulations to Dr. Abhishek Dey, our institute’s Frontiers Awardee 2026! It was truly wonderful hosting my PhD supervisor. A very special full-circle moment for me, seeing him recognized among such exceptional scientists in bioinorganic chemistry and chemical energy conversion.

Really happy to share our recent publication on LPMO metalloenzymes, with new mechanistic insights into these fascinating copper enzymes. And the paper was selected for the back cover. @chemicalscience.rsc.org Grateful for the collaboration and excited for what’s next! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

All about yesterday's hike. Fall at its best.

Had a wonderful to visit Uppsala University for the first time. First day was the Tiselius symposium, followed by the Department of Chemistry seminar the next day. Thanks for the invite. Needless to say lots of wonderful discussions too. #seminar #uppsala

This year's Betriebsausflug. This time we invited the entire department to join us for my lab's group outing..thanks to everyone who joined.

Read about the use of XES to explore electronic structural changes.. a superb work from the department. Congratulations Ira (Zac) and Serena. #chemsky #spectroscopy #chemistry onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

2nd time doing soft X-ray measurements at BESSY II. Exciting to be at one of the best Synchrotrons for soft X-ray science! Great to see the visual plans for the BESSY III upgrade. Brings back memories of being part of the workshop discussions last year. #BESSYII #SoftXray #Synchrotron #Berlin
