Oral contributions are open for the Intl Coord Chem Conf (ICCC) symposium 'Metallo-supramolecular chemistry meets biology', I'm organising with Valerie Pierre. Apply now to join Makoto Fujita and others and present your research! But be quick...Deadline is 10 March. iccc2026.com/abstract-sub...
congratulations Lauren and @pikramenougroup.bsky.social Very well deserved!
Well done Steve!
Posters also accepted with a deadline of 17th May. Speakers include Makoto Fujita, Janet Morrow, Alex Pöthig, Miguel Vázquez López and Raúl Hernández Sánchez...and of course many others across the ICCC. Come and join the longest-running international inorganic conference series
Love this photo...non-canonical I-Motif, G-Quadruplex and Junctions DNA-binding evangelists all together! Congrats to Rob Yuan on his fab thesis, thanks to brilliant co-examiner David Shorthouse; great to catch up with Rob's super-talented supervisors @drzoewaller.bsky.social and Stephen Neidle.
A thoroughly deserved award winner! Fantastic science, Zoë.
Really exciting talks today at the Mechanical Bonds in Biology symposium - great to meet old and make new friends! Thanks to @sgoldup.bsky.social @uobchemistry.bsky.social
@charliemcternan.bsky.social
@fschaufelberger.bsky.social
for organising! Looking forward to the next meeting!
What happens when a DNA-junction binding compound is lengthened? Intriguingly, the larger pi surfaces widen the range of junctions targeted! Just out in JBIC -congratulations to authors

We bind supramolecular helicates to DNA junctions as lock-and-key and now induced-fit too! Exploring how a helicate's size, shape and symmetry affect structures of #DNAjunctions @jacs.acspublications.org

Congratulations Sam, Hugo and Sumit @uobchemistry.bsky.social
I'm teaching lego MO diagrams today! Exciting initiative developed by Dr Schnepp and PhD student Isabelle - tactile teaching for different learning styles and visually impaired students. Our talented year 1 students @uobchemistry.bsky.social had lots of fun playing... here they've set up N2 minus.
