Last week we said goodbye to Roland (2nd left), Moritz (2nd right), Najwa (back left) and Azaan (back right) who are leaving to do a PhD (KCL), finish their Bachelor studies (TUM), and start a Masters in Chemical Research (QMUL) and AI in Drug Discovery (QMUL), respectively. Thanks for everything and best wishes for the future everyone.

Congratulations to Haseeb and Qi, whose work on the synthesis of syn-1,2-diaminobenzocyclobutenes from [2+2] cycloaddition of 2-imidazolones with arynes has been accepted for publication in Chem Commun.

Congratulations to Qi and Mi, whose work ‘Investigating the Effect of Fe-N5 Configuration in the Oxygen Reduction Reaction Using N-Heterocycle Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes’ has just been accepted for publication in Journal of Materials Chemistry A.
