Matthias Vink from @HFML_FELIX @Radboud_Uni gave us some fantastic results from dead plants recently - all in the name of science!
Last week @UvA_Amsterdam scientists from @HimsUva: Ivan Romanov & Jiayun Fan and @SILS_UvA: Xandra Schrama gave excellent results summaries at our latest @BoostCrop project meeting at @univamu

In our latest #ChemSciPicks, phenolic-based barbituric absorbers of UV radiation are prepared, which show promising light-to-heat conversion capabilities and could be useful as molecular heaters for agriculture @BoostCrop @URD_ABI @MarioBarbatti 👉 ow.ly/qiLa50GK7y4
