Very proud to see my first last-author paper published! We report dramatic effects of a ligand backbone modification on 3MLCT lifetimes in Cr/Mo/W complexes. Read how we disentangle potential energy well flattening, conformations and self-quenching! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

Looking for talented people - the pamphlet version! Please help me spread the word out 🙏🏼
If you're interested in joining the ride, doing some magic to better understand photosynthetic (and non-photosynthetic) proteins using biochemistry, microscopy and spectroscopy, check out my lab website (dvirharrislab.com) and submit a form! RTs would be appreciated 🙏
