Bitte lesen. Wer glaubt, es bliebe bei der Menschenjagd auf Migranten und Linke, sollte so langsam die Realität zur Kenntnis nehmen.

Festnahmewelle in New York - Rund 200 Schwule inhaftiert

Der Vorwurf stimmt: Die New Yorker Polizei hat in der U-Bahn Penn Station über 200 Schwule in eine Falle gelockt und dann wegen Cruising verhaftet.

Congratulations to Sven Schäfer for winning the poster prize at @evonik.bsky.social meets Science 2025 with our contribution on RROP of CKAs! It was a short, intense but very insightful symposium in Heidelberg. #ems2025

I had a blast at the @scienceslam.de in Hamburg at Uebel & Gefährlich. Wonderful evening with amazing science presented in very entertaining talks. Congrats to Verena Schulze for the deserving victory!

Now in @natnano.nature.com: We need to acknowledge that - as with all new tech - AI also poses hazards we need to be aware of. Thanks @besfordgroup.bsky.social (Quinn A. Besford 🇦🇺🇩🇪🇺🇦) for leading this effort.

The rising danger of AI-generated images in nanomaterials science and what we can do about it - Nature Nanotechnology

Generative AI has made it trivial to generate fake microscopy images that are indistinguishable from real images, even for experts. As researchers in nanoscience, it is time for us to face this realit...

Auch erschreckend, wie sehr der Ruf nach Abbau der umweltschädlichen Subventionen verstummt ist. Und die Union nicht versteht, dass ein schwacher Sozialstaat auf lange Sicht auch ihr Ende ist, weil eine kaputte Gesellschaft halt kaputt ist.

The worst thing is actually that this is not a fake image.

IPF was part of the "Dresden is(s)t bunt" on Monday. Including experiments for kids and showing that Dresden can be open to foreigners and celebrate an international culture.
I have to admit though that the predominant skin colour on this picture speaks volumes about the issues in the city.

It was a privilege, quite some fun and also a bit of an honor to ring the last-lap bell continously on national television for the National Championships this weekend as part of "Die Finals" 2025 in Dresden. Maybe not as good as @simonhammann.bsky.social in Berlin back in 2018, but I tried :)

Dass die Wirtschaftsministerin eine Lobbyministerin ist, zeigt sich unter anderem dadurch, dass sie ungefiltert die Position der Arbeitgeber vertritt.

Mountaineering is my passion. Guiding my parents (75, 71) onto our maybe last shared 4000m-peak (Vincentpyramide, 4217m), was an absolute privilege and honour. No cable car was used up or down and a good friend joined as well. Really proud of and happy for them!

Unlocking a new RROP-Level with Nathany Lisbôa: Fine-tuning crystallinity and hence degradation speed by copolymerising CKAs! A bit suprisingly, hydrophobicity also plays a role as our enzyme seems to prefer a more hydrophobic polymer in its' pocket. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Fine‐Tuning the Crystallinity and Enzymatic Degradation of Nanoparticles Produced by Radical Ring‐Opening Polymerization (RROP)

Amphiphilic block-copolymers were obtained from radical ring-opening polymerization (RROP) of 2-methylene-1,3,6-trioxocane (MTC) and 2-methylene-1,3-dioxepane (MDO). Targeted variations in the MTC/MD...

To get the most out of your precious responsive hydrogels, a little pre-treatment does the trick as Doreen Hofmann has shown here quite nicely. You need to clear out possible defects or stresses from synthesis to fully unlock your functions. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Dynamic Characteristics of Redox‐ and Thermoresponsive Hydrogel Films on the Nanometer Scale to Compensate Structure Defects

Dually responsive nanogel-films have undergone temperature- and redox-cycles. These have shown that synthetic stress has to be released before predictive behaviour can be reached.
