We have an opening for a PDRA in my group working in membrane supramolecular chemistry as part of an ERC funded project. Available from October 2025. my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…
“Responsive anion transport with a Hamilton receptor-based anionophore controlled by photo-activation and host-guest competitive inhibition”, pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art… @ChemicalScience Congrats to Manzoor and Andrew. And a group milestone - paper number 50! @OxfordChemistry
Many congrats to Martin for his paper on highly chloride selective anionophores @ChemEurJ with @duarte_group Impressive single-handed effort spanning synthesis, ion transport experiments, DFT and MD. @OxfordChemistry @OxfordSynthesis tinyurl.com/mwy8p4v7

Congratulations to Part 2 MChem students Amelie, Alex and Holly for handing in their theses! thanks for all your hard work, its been a pleasure having you in the group. Hand in celebrations followed by the traditional Langton group annual punting trip!

Congrats to all involved in this excellent collaboration, led by Xingzao (Yujia Qing and @bayley_lab) @AidanK59127585 @OxfordChemistry #nanopore #photoswitch #ion transport
ON–OFF nanopores for optical control of transmembrane ionic communication. nature.com/articles/s4156… "α-haemolysin #nanopore with arylazopyrazole photoswitches is shown to transition between iontronic resistor & diode modes in response to irradiation at orthogonal wavelengths."
Happy Christmas from the Langton group!
A fantastic Langton Group Christmas Lunch @ChemLangton 🥳🎄
Congrats to Elin on her first paper of her DPhil, out now as a “hot paper” in @angew_chem Transmembrane Delivery of an Aryl Azopyrazole Photo-switchable Ion Transporter Relay @OxfordChemistry @OxICFM onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/an…
Great to welcome @GuillaumeDeBo yesterday to give a seminar on his amazing work on mechanoresponsive molecular devices @OxfordChemistry
@ChemLangton research group were honoured to have @GuillaumeDeBo visit! We had great discussions about our projects and even enjoyed some Oxford sights, followed by a fascinating talk hearing about the research in the De Bo Group @OxfordChemistry
