The poster pitches at #NWOCHAINS were an absolute firework of great science. We learned about #antivirals, #organocatalysis, #MolecularMotors, #EnzymeEngineering, #photocontrol, #odor detection, sensing of #bacteria, #recycling, #batteries, #QuantumDots, #vitrimers, #BoneRegeneration, native #MassSpectrometry and #biomaterials. Always one of my highlights of the conference.
