It was a pleasure to visit Chonnam National University and teach photochemistry in Gwangju, South Korea 🇰🇷 Many thanks to Prof. Jacopo Tessarolo for the invitation and to everyone who joined my research talk and the many enjoyable discussions. Thank you for hosting me! 🍻

Super exciting day using #MicroED at @rigakucorporation.bsky.social near Frankfurt with Dr. Khai-Nghi Truong 👌🏻 We tested several challenging samples and solved one cage structure by electron diffraction using the XtaLAB Synergy-ED. Fascinating to experience the differences to SC-XRD firsthand!

Thank you, it really means a lot to us 😊 When writing such articles, and it always is a lot of work and I promise myself to never to do it again, I often think this is never going to be found ^^

Our review on photoswitchable self-assembled cages and macrocycles was selected as one of the most popular articles of 2023 & 2024! It's amazing to hear it being read and well received. @jonavoss.bsky.social @hhu.de Check out the review here: chemistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

We studied a fluorinated and a non-fluorinated tetrahedral Tri4Tri4 porous organic cage for H2, CO2, and CH4 adsorption. Finally something porous from our lab again with quite some surprises regarding selectivities and stabilities 🧪⚗️ #pocs @hhu.bsky.social pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

My parents hooked me up with a box of Lebkuchen Schmidt every year while I was living in Japan, and fortunately, I still get one every year after moving back. They really taste great, and I would never buy so many for myself.. 🥰

Meine Eltern haben uns eine kleine Kiste geschickt und ich freue mich einfach so sehr über die rundum Versorgung mit Lebkuchen und allem was du zugehört 😊
