The graduate school at @maxplanck.de Magdeburg www.mpi-magdeburg.mpg.de/imprs is looking for new PhD students. When interested in sustainable chemical processes. @matthiasstein.bsky.social and Molecular Simulations and Design are part of it. Please apply jobs.mpi-magdeburg.mpg.de/en/jobpostin...

In remembrance of Peer Bork  www.embl.org/news/embl-an... who passend away far too early.

It has been two weeks since the unexpected death of Peer Bork, and all of us in his research group are deeply missing him. His scientific vision brought us together as a team, and we are immensely grateful for the time we spent together. 🧵

Uns hat die traurige Nachricht ereilt, dass Fakultätsmitglied Prof. em. Dr. Lutz Zülicke im Dezember letzten Jahres verstorben ist. Zülicke war einer der führenden theoretischen Chemiker in Deutschland. Den Nachruf hat sein Nachfolger an der @unipotsdam.bsky.social, Prof. Dr. Saalfrank, verfasst.

Back from PhD viva at University of Manchester. Felt like coming home since there ist where it all began.

The Max Planck Institute ist calling for (self)-nominations for the position of a director in Systems-oriented Biotechnology and Bioengineering before 7th December. www.mpi-magdeburg.mpg.de/2025-11-04-c...

Great choice!

The MPI @maxplanck.de welcomes Prof. Sohini Kar-Nayaran as a new director. www.mpi-magdeburg.mpg.de/2025-10-01-p...

We are thrilled to announce that @steffenmau.bsky.social, one of Germany’s leading sociologists, has been appointed Director at our Institute. He will lead a new Department on Inequality, Transformation & Conflict, addressing pressing societal challenges via cutting-edge social science research.

PhD Student Kasia Szleper from MSD group receives poster prize from QBIC VII conference in Berlin. Congratulations.🏆

Dr Mariusz Radoń ist the 2024 QBIC Society Award winner.🏆

QBIC Society Award goes to Anastassia Alexandrova from UCLA. #compchem #chemsky

Day 2 of QBIC VII in Berlin took off: great science, poster session tonight.

Do not forget QBIC VII in Berlin in August 2025 !

Secure last seats for the Quantum Bio•Inorganic Conference in Berlin!

Sad end of #compchem era… After 30+ years of service, CCL - computational chemistry list will be closing… 😢 #chemsky

The Computational Chemistry List (CCL) will come to an end. Jan Labanowski has been running it since 1991. Conference, jobs, answers to theory and code could be found there for so many years. #compchem, #ccl. Thank you so much, Jan.

500 scientists were attending the General Assembly of the Max Planck Society @maxplanck.de in Magdeburg. @matthiasstein.bsky.social presenting the work of the MSD group.
