Graphical abstract showing a diaza-18-crown-6 macrocycle forming a magnifying glass looking into the brain. The dopamine catechol hydroxyl groups form hydrogen bonding interactions with the halogen bonding receptor appendage resulting in an optical response.
Great to see our latest paper out now @ChemicalScience.rsc.org! We report a halogen and hydrogen bonding-appended diaza-crown ether ion-pair receptor capable of the selective sensing of a dopamine salt through the formation of a convergent biomimetic binding site. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Me, sitting in a hospital bed, with a cup of tea, while donating stem cells.
Hard to believe it's been 2 years ago since my stem cell donation with @anthonynolan.bsky.social
After my grandmother passed away from leukaemia, I joined the register, never expecting to be a match.
Aged 16-30? Please do consider registering, it's easy and you might save someone's life!

A single-track country road in East Hendred with the tower of a country church in the background.
A lovely weekend walk, escaping to East Hendred to recharge mid-term. Always a treat to explore more of the Oxfordshire countryside.

Glad that I made it to CTiP at @oxfordchemistry.bsky.social. I was very happy to see my old colleagues from @imperialchemistry.bsky.social alongside many other amazing academics. Thanks to @malcolmstewart.bsky.social @jamewilmore.bsky.social and other organisers.

Great to meet so many colleagues at Chemistry Teaching in Practice #CTiP25 today and to hear some great teaching ideas from the UK and further afield. Thank you all for coming! Looking forward to #vicephec25 in Liverpool.

Registration and timetable for an academic conference.
A seminar room laid out with empty chairs with a welcome slide on the screens, ready for the arrival of delegates.
We're looking forward to welcoming chemistry teaching colleagues from the UK and overseas tomorrow for Chemistry Teaching in Practice 2025 #CTiP25
@oxfordchemistry.bsky.social!
Preparations are almost complete and we're exited to hear what everyone is getting up to!

Schematic depiction of a [2]rotaxane in which binding of a lithium halide ion-pair induces macrocycle shuttling and an optical response.
Delighted to share our new metalloporphyrin [2]rotaxane for the selective sensing of lithium halide ion-pairs, through a Boolean AND logic gate mechanism, out now in Dalton Transactions!
