Very excited to announce that after plenty of dedication and hard work our latest research is now published in Nature Magazine! Our study introduces a novel method for the heterolysis of homopolar and symmetric σ-bonds, and we are proud to see it featured not only in the journal itself, but also on the Nature Podcast  and in Nature News and Views, so check it out! A huge congratulations to Anna, Caro, Poorva, and the entire team who contributed to this achievement.

We’d also like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our collaborators from the Nürnberger and Rehbein groups. Working together on this project has been a rewarding experience, and we’re excited to see the impact of this work in the field.
