So very proud of @DanielCerasale and @DomWard3 @ChemistryCU for their hard work on this review, and we really enjoyed putting a cover image together!
ICYMI, it's all about #MOFs and time.

• Following MOFs in time
• Designing metalloproteins
• Azobenzenes, what's next?
• Shapeshifting microfluidics
Plus what #COP26 means for chemists, a celebration of 25 years of GFP, and some #ResearchHighlights

We organised the Bham MOFluidics Workshop on Monday. It's great to see many colleagues and early-career researchers (ECR) interested in the science and applications of pressurised confined water in Metal-Organic Frameworks (#MOF), across different disciplines and career stages.
@BhamCityCouncil Someone appears to have deliberately sabotaged the tactile spinner on the pedestrian crossing lights on Vincent Drive, nearest Pritchatts Road. It's now a sharp spinning point that will seriously injure anyone who needs it to safely cross the road.

It was wonderful day to visit beautiful campus of @unibirmingham hosted by Prof @ChampnessGroup Thank you for Incredible hospitality and making my stay comfortable! Gave a talk amongst enthusiastic crowd on Engineered #MOFs for Ammonium Ion HS. Also had nice time with @TimEasun
This is quite the collection of papers on #MOFs and the @NobelPrize in Chemistry 2025 by @NaturePortfolio, and it was a delight to see our review among the resources on offer.

There's around 100 papers to peruse, I'll be recommending them to my group 😀

This week we had the second PhD from the group: Haixia passed his viva on Wednesday. Thank @TimEasun @TanLab2 for examining and Dr Zhong-Nan Wang for chairing the viva. This panel reminds me how interdisciplinary our research is.
