On my way back to Munich after an excellent Avogadro symposium 2025! Thanks to the organizers Lidia Armelao and Gianluca Farinola for hosting this event in Rome. It was great to meet friends like the wonderful Maria Laura Bolognesi and Silvio Aime and make new ones 🤗👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Thanks to Prof Vicent Moliner for another excellent TrEnCa (Trends in enzyme catalysis) meeting in Benicassim! I have learned a lot about thermodynamics of enzymes and dynamics of transition states and beyond!! I spoke about our catalysis in cells with organometallic compounds 😉☺️

I am super proud of this paper fully based on in silico studies of metallacages to unravel their dynamic behavior in solution! I want to thank our collaborator Prof Alessio Gagliardi and the dream TEAM composted by Julia, Inigo, Darren and Gohar!!🫶🫶🫶

Great EU COST LUCES workshop organized by Dr @apoethig.bsky.social and Prof @lrraurell.bsky.social at the CRC on supramolecular interactions and photophysical properties! Thanks for the wonderful science and discussion! @gmalcantar.bsky.social and Elisabeth Klaus gave excellent presentations 🤗

Thanks for this nice memory!! 🤗

A fantastic end of the international symposium in Bioinorganic chemistry organized by Prof Ela Gumienna-Kontecka in Wroclaw!! Thanks for the wonderful time and … till the next one 😉🤗🥂Rudi Fasan Gabriele Meloni David Giedroc Norah Barba @borisvauzeilles.bsky.social @giedroclab.bsky.social

A great event for science and friendship 🤗 thanks to the organizers for the invite and the hospitality!

With one of my soulmates in Bioinrganic chemistry, Prof Ivana Ivanovic-Burmazovic at the 7th EuChems Inorganic Chemistry conference in Belgrade! 🤗💝 Technical University of Munich and Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München rock together!! 😉

The 7th EuChems Inorganic Chemistry conference is about to start in Belgrade!!! Lovely to meet Prof. Sanja Grguric-Spika again 🤗

The 2nd annual meeting of our EIC Pathfinder Open network SMARTdrugs _ is in full swing at KCL hosted by Tim Witney and featuring Jason Holland Jordi Llop Alex Poot Miguel Castanho and colleagues. All this in a sunny London 😉 Here a few pics of the evening on the terrace of the #LIHE

@isbomc25.bsky.social 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Kicking off the 3rd day at ISBOMC with the fantastic plenary lecture of Maria Contel @contellab.bsky.social on her journey through gold chemistry for anticancer drug discovery!! 🤗 I particularly loved her work on antibody-drug conjugates 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

What a day!!! 😉🤗 @gmalcantar.bsky.social @contellab.bsky.social

We really enjoyed every moment!! 🤗🥂

Excellent Start of ISBOMC in Paris! First day featuring many great presentations like the one of @conchitagimeno.bsky.social and get together with former PhDs and friends in organometallic chemistry! Thanks to @gassergroup.bsky.social and @cariouk.bsky.social for the organization!! 🤗🥂

Thank you very much 😊 hope it will be useful.

Proud of this new preprint on ML-assisted Computational Workflow to the Robust Modeling of Supramolecular Metallacages in Solution | ChemRxiv - doi.org/10.26434/che...

A Gold-PROTAC degrades the oncogenic tyrosine kinase MERKT: insights into the degradome from a steady-state system Targeted protein degradation is a valuable strategy to eliminate disease-relevant proteins. Among other classes, proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are bifunctional molecules that induce the pro...

Today is a good day for the results on organogold compounds in medicine! This paper concerns the 1st Gold-PROTAC investigated in a degradome assay developed by the group of Sam Meier-Menches! the study is in the frame of our #UbiQancer CRC TRR network ❤️ chemrxiv.org/engage/chemr...
