And both are excellent series!

Shout-out and kudos to the organizers, other speakers, advisory committee, and all the participants. See you next year! @spanlabfau.bsky.social @ctfm-lab.bsky.social @fau.de @chemdiva.bsky.social (3/3)

But I am even more grateful to have met so many wonderful and inspiring people at this event. The talks were fantastic and the atmosphere was just so warm and inclusive. Everybody could see how much effort the organizing team put into this event to make it welcoming for everyone. (2/3)

I am super grateful to have had the opportunity to speak at the Women in Science Erlangen symposium this week about my career, my identity, and the work of the @gdch.de – and to sing and play the ukulele for a scientific audience for the first time in my life 😃 (1/3)

Scientific productivity gap based on English-language peer-reviewed papers. Shown are the maximum % differences in the number of peer-reviewed papers published by female native English speakers from a high-income country (-45%), female non-native English speakers from a high-income country (-60%), and female non-native English speakers from a lower-middle income country (-70%), compared to male native English speakers from a high-income country (red flag).

How do your #linguistic, #economic & #gender backgrounds impact your #scientific productivity? @tatsuya-amano.bsky.social & co reveal that being a woman, a non-native English speaker, and from a low-income country is associated with a 70% reduction in productivity @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4n3RLRQ

Great news! And welcome to Germany 🥳

Is AI ruining music? What makes music “real” — is it the instruments, the voice, the creator’s intention or something else entirely? Dustin Ballard, the creative force behind the viral channel “There I Ruined It,” explore...

This is such a good TED Talk. Especially if you know the YouTube channel There I Ruined It.

Raises good questions about the role and value of AI in the creative process.

Can simple exchange heuristics guide us in predicting magnetic properties of solids? A popular heuristic derived from the Kanamori-Goodenough-Anderson rules of superexchange connects bond angles and magnetism in certain transition metal compounds. We evaluate the fulfillment of this h...

Interested in predicting magnetism in transition metal compounds? We have written a paper on how to use exchange heuristics in such models. We also show limits of current theoretical approaches.

There‘s always some gems, but you have to look for them. And you will find more of them away from the top of the streaming charts, of course.

Yep, Billie Eilish writes her songs together with her brother Finneas and he also produces the songs. The album Hit Me Hard and Soft that they released last year is really good.

But I also hope you didn‘t skip The Subway by Chappell Roan in the current charts, that‘s another one I really like.

Scientific organizations (or any really): please be aware that if you host international conferences in the US, you will be excluding quite a few people from this point on, for whom the risk is just not worth it.

Dear friends and colleagues outside of Germany, I'd be very happy to work with more of you in the GDCh in the near future. Membership for new international members will be free in 2025 and 2026!

Fantastic news, Josh 🥳 Wishing you a good start in Manchester!

Super cool, congratulations 🥳 and welcome back!

I wonder what music genre the yeast likes. Funk?

Wishing you all the best for your transition, Evan. UCD and Ireland can be happy to have you!

Ich finde euch übrigens alle exzellent, egal was die DFG sagt 🫶

Their English seems not the yellow from the egg to be

I also realized in the past years as an editor that this appears to be a controversial statement in some parts of the chemistry community.

You can add "Molecular orbital theory is a model and oversimplification of multi-electron systems that also has no reality (but, to be fair, it is a damn good model)"
Chemistry is full of constructs with no physical reality that help us understand molecules really well. That‘s what I love about it.
