Sharon and Simon join us from the University of Louvain (Guillaume's Alma Mater) for a 3-month Erasmus placement. Welcome to both!  We are please to welcome our first postdocs: Dr Rafael Sandoval Torrientes and Dr Min Zhang. Min is joining us from Shanghai as a Newton International Fellow and Rafa is coming from Madrid to work on a Wellcome Trust funded project. Welcome to both!  Our recent JACS paper has been highlighted in Science Editors' Choice (Science 2017, 358, 1267-1268)
Our first review has been published. We cover the emerging field of the mechanochemistry of the mechanical bond.  Good food, good fun and bad cracker jokes: the recipe for a great Christmas dinner!  Our first paper has been accepted in JACS with Richard Stevenson as first author, well done Rich!
