Some good news in these difficult days... I am happy to share that GaUDI is on the front cover of @NatComputSci. nature.com/articles/s4358… Many thanks to Alex Bronstein, @roiporanne, and Michal Abraham, who made this magical artwork. @TechnionLive @SchulichT @PoranneG
My amazing team represented with style at the CMMS at Bar Ilan U! @kasia_pienko even won a Best Poster prize! @PoranneG @SchulichT
Today we all representing @PoranneG at 5th CMMS conference at Bar Ilan University. 🔬🧪 Proud to contribute to the science and the discussion! #conferencelife
Are you ready for some more PBHs? Brand new from @awahab_pg: What's the story with pyrene? Our classification system reveals that it's the battle of aromaticity⚔️strain. Check it out now @ChemRxiv: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…
Our new cover is live @JCIM_JCTC! 🚀Explore the chemical space of BN-doped polybenzenoid hydrocarbons🚀 Huge thanks to Dr. Vitalii Stetsovych and Prof. Roi Poranne (@roiporanne) for the amazing artwork! 😍 #MyACSCover @ACSPublications @Sabyasa13824679 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…
I'm very proud to share the newest COMPAS data set, now out in @JCIM_JCTC! Everything you ever wanted to know about BN-PBHs 😎(well, maybe not everything... there's still cool stuff left to discover) Congrats to @Sabyasa13824679 and Itay! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
I'm absolutely delighted to have this opportunity! It's a huge honor and I'm super excited for my upcoming visit to Germany! 🥳🥳🥳
🎉 Dr. Renana Gershoni Poranne from @TechnionLive’s Faculty of Chemistry has been awarded the prestigious Liebig Lectureship for outstanding young scientists in organic chemistry! She’ll present her work across leading institutions in Germany 🇩🇪🧪 #WomenInSTEM @Aromaticist
Join us for the 5th Meeting of the Israeli Conference on Computational Modelling of Molecules and Solids (CMMS) on July 15, 2025 at Bar-Ilan University. @ubarilan Participation is free but registration is mandatory, by May 22nd in this link: forms.gle/4L4eka4ncz14BK… 1/2
Everyone knows I love aromatic compounds... but what about *metallaaromatic* ones?! In a cool exp/comp collaboration with @deRuiterLabs, we find new cobalt macrocycles and show that they are metallaromatic thanks to metal-ligand coordination. go.shr.lc/4cQQPvN
Are polycyclic aromatics really "delocalized"? 🤔 We used deep learning to answer the question "How local is “local”?" and revealed locality of the induced magnetic field. Congrats to our two amazing undergrads, Yair and Aviad, and to @Sabyasa13824679 pubs.aip.org/aip/jcp/articl…
BN-doped polybenzenoids are a very promising direction for new functional aromatic systems... But can we predict how BN pairs affect properties? YES, we can! And guess what!? Turns out it has to do with aromaticity... Check out our new preprint: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…
An amazing opportunity to work with one of the best!! Alexandra is an awesome scientist and mentor. 10/10 recommended 🤩😍
Our team is looking for a PhD candidate interested in multidisciplinary research on the topic of iron catalysis. Apply via the following link: abg.asso.fr/en/candidatOff… Reposts and retweets to spread the word are very much appreciated!
It's that time of year again! Last lecture of the semester and I baked chocolate chip cookies for the students to end on a sweet note 😀😀
🥳🥳Check out our latest cover @ChemicalScience! **It's Gabby's indenofluorene machine!!!** 🏭 HUGE thanks to Vitalii Stetsovych for the amazing artwork (and for putting up with me) and to @roiporanne for finishing touches! 😍 @UOHaleyLab @JudyWuChem @kasia_pienko @SaidJalife
Thanks so much for highlighting our paper!
Check out this recent Edge article from Renana Gershoni-Poranne et al.! "Effects of benzoheterocyclic annelation on the s-indacene core: a computational analysis" Read it here, for free: doi.org/10.1039/D4SC06… @Aromaticist @UOHaleyLab @JudyWuChem @kasia_pienko @SaidJalife
🥳Busy week for us here in @PoranneG! 👩💻@awahab_pg's latest paper just hit the presses @PCCP! 🤓Our adventures in the land of polycyclic aromatic systems continue as we explore the diradical character of 20k PBHs using xTB fractional occupation pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…
New cover alert!! Check out our gorgeous new cover on @JACS_Au, courtesy of the talented @roiporanne 😍 N2 Dissociation vs Reversible 1,2-Methyl Migration in PCNHCP Cobalt(I) Complexes in the Stereoselective Isomerization (E/Z) of Allyl Ethers | JACS Au pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…
🥳Extremely proud to share the latest from our group! Gabby Warren and @kasia_pienko elucidate the effects of benzoheterocyclic annelation on the s-indacene core. A fun collaborative effort with @UOHaleyLab and @JudyWuChem 😍 Now in @ChemicalScience 😁 pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…
Given the Xodus to 🦋, you can find me over there with the same handle: @Aromaticist. I'm still here for now, but I guess I will slowly migrate over to bluer horizons...
Ever wondered how you can easily and quickly determine diradical character in polybenzenoid hydrocarbons? 🤔 Well, wonder no more! 😃 The fantastic Alex Wahab @awahab_pg tells us how to use xTB NFod values to do exactly that. 🤓 Fresh off the presses: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…
