I would, more broadly, love to read something on why women are seemingly the ones with all the hobbies - it strikes me once in a while but noticed it most recently in my film camera shop, where *every single customer* was a woman, when film photography doesn't strike me as especially female coded

The sun can provide limitless heat for buildings and industrial processes. But using that heat on demand means capturing and storing solar thermal energy for when the sun isn’t shining. Researchers have designed an effortless way to do this. cen.acs.org/energy/solar... #chemsky 🧪

Excited to share the publication of our automated characterisation platform for measuring the quantum yield and half life of molecular photoswitches. The method is easy to use and reduce also the needed amount for characterisation. #chemsky #molswitch pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Just published in @natcomms.nature.com! We developed a photoswitch amphiphile that self-assembles in water. In presence of cations, this amphiphile forms a hydrogel that bends like muscle under UV-light and self-recovers without any external stimulus. @feringalab.bsky.social doi.org/10.1038/s414...

🧪Here are our current open positions: www.benferinga.com/vacancies/ - PhD on Functional DNA-Rotator Motors - PhD in the Origin of Homochirality - PhD on Expanding Prebiotic Chemistry Through Reactivity in Oil Droplets - Postdoc Molecular motors based DNA-walkers

Last Tuesday, I defended my PhD thesis titled "Nanoscale Energy Conversion and Storage: Powered by Molecular Switches" A huge thank you to my two beautiful paranymphs who supported me the entire day, and my amazing opponents for the great questions. Hugs, Dr. Roza

Kinda hard to see a free and fair 2028 election where she doesn’t win by a lot.

there is simply no amount of child death that will move RFK to change his mind because he is a predatory narcissist who cares less about health than the gratification of his own ego

We would like to bring our EVOLVE consortium with its PhD positions to your attention again! Sharing is also much appreciated.

This is what we’ve become. In just a single decade.

For International Women's Day 2025, celebrate the enduring legacy of Rosalind Franklin as Liz Sockett FRS, Chair of the Royal Society’s Rosalind Franklin Award committee and Isabelle Moss, Royal Society Diversity and Inclusion Officer, take a look at her remarkable career: #IWD2025

It's happening!!!!!!!!!

just ordered printed copies of my thesis! it's really happening!

Stephanie Beaupark sees #chemistry through an Indigenous lens: This Ngugi researcher from University of Wollongong gathers knowledge in Aboriginal communities to track changes in plant pigments. cen.acs.org/environment/... via @cenmag.bsky.social

New paper about the efficient synthesis of the most common molecular motor building blocks just out in JOC, have a look! 🧪👩‍🔬👨‍🔬 @feringalab.bsky.social doi.org/10.1021/acs....

As to be expected of MAGA snowflakes.

An important point to keep in mind.

super happy to back in Groningen! meeting old friends in @feringalab.bsky.social and reconnecting 🤗

On International Day of Women and Girls in Science, a reminder to not close your eyes and turn away from what is happening in the US right now. Fascism is an assault on scientific integrity, knowledge, and innovation. www.chron.com/news/space/a...

Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! Remember that today is not only a moment to celebrate the amazing women around us, but also to think about how YOU can make a difference.

Welcome FSE! Make sure to give them a follow 👇

this is how I look at all my rbfs

We just added another position: - PhD Towards Human-Made Molecular Machines: Functional DNA-Rotator Motors www.benferinga.com/vacancies/

We are happy to announce several open positions: - PhD on Novel Peptide-Based Amphiphiles - PhD in the Origin of Homochirality - PhD on Expanding Prebiotic Chemistry Through Reactivity in Oil Droplets - Postdoc in Asymmetric Catalysis Details and how to apply: www.benferinga.com/vacancies/

New research shows that increasing solar PV and wind generation capacity beyond European 2030 targets could make electricity prices more stable. https://bit.ly/42BLyoI

Exciting PhD opportunities coming soon in the EVOLVE consortium! 🚀 Focus: origins of molecular chirality & prebiotic chemistry. 🧪 Seeking motivated students in organic synthesis, stereochemistry, or supramolecular chemistry. 🌟 evolve-programme.eu/the-origin-o... evolve-programme.eu/expanding-pr...

My first post on bluesky! Hi there 🥰

What came first, #life or #evolution?🌱 New research by Prof. Sijbren Otto and his team @unigroningen.bsky.social reveals that Darwinian rules can act on non-living material too. Curious how that works? Read more via👇 eurekalert.org/news-release... Published in @naturechemistry.bsky.social
