Biophotonic ‘windows’ enable symbiosis
Several molluscs have developed benificial relationships with symbiotic, photosynthetic algae. Heart cockles boast advanced biophotonic structures in their shells that operate like optic fiber cables to catch and transmit the incoming sunlight.
Tricky protein modification with potential
Lysine crotonylation is an understudied yet very interesting post-translational modification which has great medical potential.

Making square drug fragments under pressure
1,2-substituted cyclobutanes can be easily prepared under high pressure and are interesting building blocks for drug development.
Biocompatible labelling for PET scans
A Franco-Belgian team has developed a gallium-18F complex for PET scans that can also be attached to biomolecules. It could be turned into an 18F radiolabelling kit.
Pure iron carbide phase nurtures alpha-olefins
Careful pretreatment of your iron catalyst enables the highly efficient production of chemical building blocks in a Fischer-Tropsch reactor, an Eindhoven-Beijing team reports in Nature (after a 5-year reviewing period).
Biosurfactant synthesis in deep eutectic solvents
Natural deep eutectic solvents can be used to produce an interesting biosurfactant in a more sustainable way without organic solvents, Antwerp researchers write in the European Journal of Organic Chemistry.
The Thinking Game takes you behind the scenes at DeepMind
The documentary The Thinking Game follows newly minted Nobel laureate Demis Hassabis and his team during the development of AlphaFold.
