FRET with Upconversion Nanoparticles ConspectusUpconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) have become one of the most frequently used nanomaterials for optical biosensing and imaging. UCNPs unique properties include high photostability, low toxi...

Our review (Accounts of Chemical Research) about Upconversion-FRET is hot off the press. It will also be part of a Acc. Chem. Res. Special Issue about Upconversion Nanoparticles.

Look who's on the Chemical Reviews cover. Captain FRET's pet, the wise and powerful FRET dragon (real analog arts from my father in law).

Editors AND journals are responsible to get rid of bullies!

There are so many young and motivated scientists who want to be an editor. Those positions should be given to those motivated for the job...

I cannot believe how editors are somewhat left out their responsibility in this article. If a reviewer is mean, and you should never be mean but always nice and constructive (that's what peer review is!!!), it is the editor's responsibility to step in. They should be the experts and not admins...

Inside Back Cover: Inter‐Nanoparticle FRET for Biosensing: Photophysics Versus Size (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 39/2025) FRET between luminescent nanoparticles is a compromise between outstanding photophysical properties and large sizes. In their Review Article (e202510801) Niko Hildebrandt, Chloé Grazon et al. discuss...

How many covers can one journal have?

And for anyone who is interested in Theodor Förster's life and career before, during, and after National Socialism in Germany, we recently published this Viewpoint article in Angewandte Chemie - onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

FRET Materials for Biosensing and Bioimaging Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) spectroscopy and microscopy are constantly expanding sensing techniques for analyzing biomolecular interactions. In addition to the biological recognition mole...

Okay. Let's start my Bluesky adventure with posting our recent FRET materials review: Chemical Reviews pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...
