The long tradition of #crystalstructure analysis at our Faculty (UL FKKT) continues! A new @rigaku XtaLAB Synergy-ED electron diffractometer was recently inaugurated. Extremely small crystals (down to 10 nm!) are sufficient to obtain the structure!

COST actions are perfect tool to build new cooperations. You meet old friends and get new. We first met with Ricardo Louro (#ITQB NOVA, Lisbon) in 1993 and now again! Topic of this meeting in Carcavelos: “FeS Clusters from Chemistry to Biology and Beyond” @fesimmchemnet #CA21115
