What’s very nice of you, Lisa, thank you so much!

Very nice work, Robert, fitting excellently into this issue 😊. Thanks for the dedication!

@leicesterchem.bsky.social dream team taking a stand ✊ Some of these fine minds are directly in the firing line! ☠️ 🪓 saveleicesteruni.com

Thank you and @scheschkewitz.bsky.social for dedicating this very interesting manuscript to us!

Thanks Josh, for honouring us with this really excellent work 🤛😎☺️

I don’t want to be on a picket line today. I’d rather be teaching my students or in the lab with @kilpatrickgroup.bsky.social - not standing in the rain outside my own workplace.

But the threat of compulsory redundancies and cuts to @leicesterchem.bsky.social 🇬🇧🥈leaves us no real choice.

Thanks Sandy for dedicating this rather nice paper!! 👍🤛

Promiscuity in Molecular Mimics of the Cysteine Dioxygenase: Effects of Selenium in the Substrate and Cobalt as the Central Metal Ion A biomimetic model for the cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) was found to be also capable of selectively dioxygenating selenocysteamine, suggesting that the lack of reactivity found for the CDO in combinati....

Congratulations to our colleague Philipp Adelhelm @humboldtuni for receiving the Berlin Science Award! Well deserved 👍👏🏻

Steric Control in Low-Valent Mn Diamide Complexes: Contrasting Magnesium and Manganese in N2 and Benzene Activation Reduction of MnII precursors with bulky diamide ligands provided access to a complex with the longest known Mn–Mn bond and to a rare example of N2 activation at high-spin MnI centers. While some instr...

Mirror, mirror at the wall, who is the fairest in small molecule activation, Mn(I) or Mg(I)? Wonderful collaboration with the Jones group, including a stay of Siad 👏 at Monash U. financed by @unisyscat.bsky.social, and the Maron group.
