Yesterday, Ela and I attended the 25th anniversary of the Ramon y Cajal program. We're very grateful to our Rector, who attended and accompanied us at the event. Supporting and improving the conditions of this program of highest excellence is key to the future of science in Spain.

It was like a dream...I started alone in Heidelberg. Soon we made the impossible: develop a new type of molecule!Today at the @uclm.es, we celebrated the 10th anniversary of our first publication on phosphaphenalenes and with a dreamed group of scientists! I feel so grateful ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

Some people still don't understand how much effort is required for highly competitive grants. Sometimes you get close and still miss. No shame in that. Itโ€™s part of the game. Get up, learn and fight again. Thatโ€™s how science moves forward. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿ’ช I will be back in next call!!

For me, progress in research wouldnโ€™t be possible without #biketherapy.

In science, protecting your mental health is everything.

I was just a PhD student. There was a scientific problem, I had an idea, my local mentor believed in me and it just worked! What a feeling! The number may be small, but it means the world to me. Trust, motivation, and the right environment can do wonders. So grateful! ๐Ÿ™Œ
