And what is lawful evil? Solvent on a special position?
This is why I come to #chemsky. Where else can I find crystallography/fantasy RPG crossover memes?
The RSC Main Group PhD Lectureship Prize is awarded to an individual for the advancement of Main Group Chemistry during their PhD research. The lectureship recognizes a piece of peer-reviewed published work that provides a distinctive, creative, and impactful contribution to main group chemistry. An invited lectureship including registration and a contribution of up to £300 in travel costs at the Main Group Annual Meeting taking place at the University of Edinburgh 8-9th April 2026. Nominees must expect to be able to attend the Main Group Annual Meeting and to cover any additional costs from other sources. To make a nomination please provide the following by 17.00 20th February 2026: • A 1-page CV of the candidate with their graduation date or expected graduation date clearly identified. • A 500-word summary on why the nominated article represents a significant advancement in main group chemistry and the contribution of the candidate. • A citation of the work. • If the nominated work has received previous recognition, please identify which awards. In the case of multiple submissions of similar quality, work that has not yet been recognized will be given priority. • Both self-nominations and external nominations are welcome. Eligibility: The candidate must be due to graduate within the next year or have defended their thesis within 12 months of the nomination deadline.

Hi Matt, I'm good, is this a 'testing, testing' kind of message?
😱
Closing date 13th Feb for an October 2026 start. Any informal queries, please contact me: sophie.benjamin@ntu.ac.uk
Funded PhD position: www.findaphd.com/phds/project...
This is an interdisciplinary project where you get to do coordination chemistry with bismuth and zinc, as well as some microbiology and some computational chemistry - all in the name of combatting antimicrobial resistance.
Currently UK only.
📢PhD available in our group focusing on "Synthesis & optimisation of stimuli responsive MOFs in flow" Based in Sch Chemistry & iPRD @UniLeeds. Start date: 1st Oct 2026. ⏰️App deadline 30th Jan. Please repost to spread the word 🙏 #chemsky #phdjobs Come join us! www.linkedin.com/posts/andrea...
Fair enough, hope you do well with it!
Do you do it as an e-book? I'd love to get this for my kids but shipping to the UK looks expensive...
Very beautiful
Sounds like a tough day. Sending solidarity. Parenting is hard.
🚨 PhD Opportunity 🚨 🔁 Reposts appreciated!

PhD studentship at Uni Warwick with CENTA! Join us to study the decomposition of potent greenhouse gas N2O using Earth abundant Ti-based molecular photocatalysts. Exciting joint project with @chaplinlab.bsky.social group. Please contact Seb for details. centa.ac.uk/studentship/... Please re-post.
Grant application submitted. A good feeling, but also a little like sending a much cossetted child out to face wolves.
Also, Hermione is clearly ripping off Mary Poppins

Things have got bad in UK HE when a department like Leicester Chemistry is facing these measures. Solidarity to all the staff picketing today.
