Chemistry PhD turned science communicator. I co-founded @agatacomms, an agency that makes complicated things easy. I also write in Chemistry World, C&EN and other publications. Views are my own. Contact and pitches: [email protected] (he/him) #scicomm #sciwri #chemiverse #chemistry #scicommtips #chemtoots #ComunicaCiencia

En @agatacomms hemos desarrollado un chatbot que no responde bien a las preguntas. Pero a diferencia de OpenAI, lo hacemos por una buena razón: concienciar sobre el impacto climático de la IA generativa.

Porque PEC no es Por el Culo, es Por El Clima.

Bit of a frosty morning 🥶❄️🏃🏻 #Cambridge #NoFilter
Reason 718 to love Cambridge – sometimes you get to admire some original Warhols during lunch 🥗 🖼️ 🎨 Just beautiful 🩵

Acabo de colaborar con Principia solidaria y consigo una recompensa para que Betty, una gatita de la calle que ha sido atropellada pueda ser operada con urgencia.

Recibiré 2 ejemplares de Principia Magazine y otros 2 de Principia Kids escogidos al azar de entre todas las maravillas que Principia ha creado.

Participa en el Crowdfunding "Principia solidaria" en Verkami

Principia donará todas las recompensas para Betty, una gatita de la calle que ha sido atropellada y necesita ser operada con urgencia.

The anti-science movement is "organized, it’s well-financed, and it’s politically motivated. It’s doing a lot of damage to the country and to American science and scientists. And now it’s become a lethal force." https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/vaccine-scientist-warns-antiscience-conspiracies-have-become-a-deadly-organized-movement/
Vaccine Scientist Warns Antiscience Conspiracies Have Become a Deadly, Organized Movement

Vaccinologist Peter Hotez explains how the movement to oppose science and scientists has gained power

My latest story for Chemistry World covers an exciting discovery in photoswitches – researchers have achieved a full conversion from E to Z isomers in azobenzenes thanks to cool capsules that also conceal a photosensitiser 💡🔦 Read more: https://www.chemistryworld.com/news/encapsulation-drives-visible-light-isomerisation-in-azobenzene-photoswitch/4018163.article
Encapsulation drives visible light isomerisation in azobenzene photoswitch

Efficiency and selectivity of photoswitches boosted by confining light-sensitive structures into supramolecular capsules

Hey hey! I'm back here to ask you a favour 🙈 Today, I ran the Cancer Research UK #RaceForLife 🧬 to support their AMAZING ✨ work. I'm looking for support and donations here 👉🏼 http://bit.ly/FER10K

If you can, every little helps 💰 If not, reposting this would boost visibility and that's great too 🩵🎉

Every penny goes directly to CRUK 💊

Thank you very much 🥰

Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 10k to raise money and save lives. 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work, so please sponsor me now.

Check it out! Dave Smith, Peter O'Brien and co-workers at York University have developed gels that make organolithiums stable under ambient conditions FOR OVER 20 DAYS   

It's a total game-changer for synthesis in academia and industry. Imagine the applications!

Not a big hit on Twitter, let's see if #ChemToops like it better! Check this out - It's a CHEMICAL CHAINMAIL ⛓️ 🏰 constructed from COFs. It showcases extreme flexibility and resistance, which could convey many potential applications in flexible materials.
