Le problème ici n'est pas un manque de moyens mais les entraves administratives qui font que tout est compliqué et extrèmement décourageant, et le labo ne peut pas grand chose contre cela malheureusement... C'est partout pareil.

👨‍🔬👩‍🔬👨‍🔬 A huge thank you to my co-authors for their commitment and making this possible:
Andrei, Abdelhak, Vincent, Serge, Jean-Marie, Laurent and Chloé — without whose dedication, rigor and expertise none of this surface chemistry and catalysis would have been possible.

Synthesis of Perdeuterated Pentane and THF Under Mild Conditions by Silica‐Supported Ta/M (M = Co, Ir) Heterobimetallic Catalysts A silica-supported Ta/Co heterobimetallic catalyst prepared by surface organometallic chemistry shows excellent room-temperature activity in pentane perdeuteration, outperforming Ta and Ta/Ir systems....

Synergistic C–H bond activation across molybdenum–iridium multiply bonded complexes: a cascade of transformations Heterobimetallic compounds offer unique opportunities for activating substrates through cooperative interactions between two distinct metal centers, potentially leading to catalytic reactivity beyond the reach of monometallic systems. The pairing of molybdenum with iridium has recently shown remarkable performance

Very cool chemistry!

Herring spawned poleward following fishery-induced collective memory loss - Nature A critically low abundance of older herring due to age-selective fisheries resulted in an approximately 800-km poleward shift in main spawning.

have you heard about the fish that forgot its migration?

herring used to feed in northern Norway and migrate south (>1000km) to spawn

a few years ago they abruptly stopped doing that

authors think older adults were overfished & didn't "teach" younger fish to migrate!

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?

We're not clear on what a bond is, at all

Very nice work!

Excellent start for the #MMM Organometallic School, looking forward to connecting with the Spanish community this week!

A 1 year postdoc position to work on surface organometallic chemistry and catalysis is now open in my group. To apply :

Great group, great project, great city. (I might apply myself.....)

Very interesting, will implement it in my Organometallic teaching !

We start our first post on Bluesky with a firework! Very proud of a brilliant team to publish our work on C(sp3)-atom transfer @science.org. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... It has been a very exciting journey. Thanks @erc.europa.eu
