Stephan was awarded with the "Prix de Thése" from the Université de Strasbourg by "Les Amis d'Universités de l'Académie de Strasbourg" for his thesis Université de Strasbourg under the supervision of Prof. Luisa de Cola and Prof. Jean-Marie Lehn.

Ala joined us as PhD candidate! She is a polish chemist and supports us in reaching our synthesis aims! Good to have you here!

Stephan attended the FUNSOM-KIT bilateral workshop at the University of Soochow, China. He represented our group with a talk entitled Analyte Detection by High-Affinity Chemosensors. Alongside Stephan, also Peter Krolla (IFG), Michael Hirtz (INT) and Alexander Colsmann (LTI) attended the workshop as delegates from the KIT. We are very grateful to our hostess Lifeng Chi and the director Shuit-Tong Lee for the invitation. The KIT supported this workshop with its StratP program, which we would like to acknowledge certainly.

On 28th of May our group went on a group activity day to the Waldseilpark Karlsruhe to reward/celebrate Stephan's JACS paper. It was a real fun day with a lot of laughing, good company and a picknic with selfmade food as completion of our trip :)
