Und damit verabschiede ich mich auch schon wieder. Ich hoffe euch hat der kleine Einblick in den Forscheralltag in Kopenhagen gefallen und ihr habt Lust auf mehr Chemie bekommen. Folgt gerne mit auf @rpittkowski.bsky.social wenn ich mal wieder von Beamtime Experimenten live berichte.

Sharing one of my favorite beam time photos on @realscientists.de -after an exhausting experiment the "please take me back home" on the @diamondlightsource.bsky.social mugs really spoke to me 😴☕ 👩‍🔬 @lightsources.bsky.social #scienceneversleeps

Die Messzeit ist sehr kostbar und um sie voll auszunutzen heißt das 12h Schichten auch in der Nacht und am Wochenende. Das ist immer sehr intensiv, aber macht in der Gruppe auch Spaß und die Ergebnisse können wir so im Labor nicht erhalten. Aber man wird auch müde 😜

Busy cycling paths on the way to work this morning - enjoying a lot of spring sun these days.

Heute bin ich den ganzen Tag im Büro, wie sieht so ein "normaler" Tag aus? Erstmal natürlich mit dem Rad die 6 km zur Uni - Kopenhagen ist eine #Fahrradstadt. Die Sonne ☀️ scheint da macht das Pendeln mit dem Rad mehr Spaß als im Regen. Den gibt es natürlich häufig hier.

Beautiful annual report form @maxivlaboratory.bsky.social highlighting the exciting science at MaxIV - check it out & have a look at p.63 where a fun collaboration from #CHEM @ucph.bsky.social with #Szeged University is featured. My 1st time working with #XAS of metal sites in protein structures🧪👩‍🔬

Great day in Gothenburg today, visiting #chalmers university for the first time, for their conference on #electrochemistry. Lots of inspiring talks, discussion on operando X-ray techniques, endless coffee, and sun. What's not to love?

Lecture preparation and course admin are a looooot of work, but so rewarding to teach #Chemistry in the #green #energy transition. @ucph.bsky.social

And nice to get to work off of campus with a good coffee ☕ in #Vesterbro #Copenhagen this afternoon

This winter I am teaching a new course #GreenEnergy #Chemistry in the green energy transition @ucph.bsky.social
Yesterday the students brain stormed topics for project ideas on #lifecycles of chemicals ♻️🧪⚛️. Very excited for their #project #work and #creativity

The view seems better than at the beamline @esrf.fr - but the #photons are better in the ring than above it 🤓 I tried to match the #Xray #scattering to the #sunset 🌄

I really love how #creative I can get to work sometimes 😻 the last two days were full of discussion and engagement within our @dg.dk #CHEAC research center and I had so much fun to organize a session on #Science #dating to foster #collaboration between the groups in the center

One of the (many) perks of life in #Copenhagen is that #Sweden is just across the sound 🇩🇰🌉🇸🇪 So today I got an der early train to Lund, got a coffee ☕ and Swedish cinnamon bun 🤩 and am now heading to the MaxIV user meeting @maxivlaboratory.bsky.social for a day full of #synchrotron #Science
