Another day filled with brilliant talks and great discussions! 🤩 Thank you to Serena DeBeer for delivering a fantastic plenary to kick off! Thank you as well to all of our speakers, poster presenters and sponsors for making Day 3 such a success! 👏🔬 #ICH2026 #leicester

Session 2 is all done! ✅ We've just enjoyed five amazing talks from Kirstin Gutekunst, Holly Reeve, Filipe Pinto, Aniket Banerjee and Karen Trchounian! Let's keep the flow of electrons going... right into Session 3!⚡️😊 #ICH2026 #leicester

Session 1 has wrapped! 🥳 What a great morning of science we've had! We heard from two invited speakers and also heard two oral presentations! We also enjoyed some exciting flash poster presentations and heard from our sponsors!✨🧪 Time to refuel over lunch! 🍽️ #ICH2026 #leicester

Day 2 is off to a great start! 🎉 We’ve already enjoyed a very interesting opening plenary from Chris Greening, followed by a great keynote lecture from Thomas Happe, and there’s still plenty more to come! We can’t wait to see what the rest of the day brings! Stay tuned! 😉😊 #ICH2026 #leicester

Day 1, complete! ✅ A brilliant opening day at #ICH2026, with a warm welcome, inspiring opening talks, and a fantastic reception to round it all off. Bonus points if you can spot one of our organisers in Prof. Kylie Vincent's plenary... 👀 On to Day 2! 🚀 #ICH2026 #leicester

Exciting 2nd day at the ICH2026 conference! Thanks to all the speakers and chairs!

Thanks to Marius Horch and the rest of his awesome team, especially Cornelius Bernitzky and Yvonne Rippers. I also want to thank @rmlab.bsky.social for help with preparation of beautiful [FeFe] hydrogenase samples.

Very happy to see this out! Take a look at this interesting paper on the application of 2D IR to [FeFe] hydrogenases 👇
