Having been adopted as our official group mascot, when he's not keeping an eye on our nonequilibrium chemistry, Max the Demon is fond of travelling. Here you can keep up with his adventures!
Max's Travels
Max in Veneto, 2025
​​​​
Max joined Stefan for a quick Easter jaunt to the Veneto region of Italy. As well as enjoying the mountains and the lagoon, the pair found time to catch up with a good friend and collaborator (Dr Ben Roberts) in Padova. Topic of discussion involved the differences between chemical and photochemical processes, and what the key aspects of kinetics are for organic/supramolecular chemists.
Max on the Outer Hebrides, 2025
​​​
Max accompanied some colleagues up to Scotland for a spot of walking, whisky and a whole lot of work discussions. Consequently, Max has developed newfound interests in crystallisation, enantioselective catalysis and the nature of anti-bonding orbitals!
Max on Skye, 2025
​​​
Max popped up to a surprisingly sunny Scotland to explore the Isle of Skye. He enjoyed the dramatic landscapes, although his trident was reclaimed by the sea!

Max on Capri, 2025
​​
Max's Mediterranean explorations took him to the beautiful island of Capri in Italy, where he enjoyed the cliffs and spring flowers.
Max in Catalonia and Aragon, 2025
​​
Max headed to north east Spain to explore the hills. He also got a little wet when he fell into the sea!
Max on Tenerife, 2025
​​
Max made the most of some very cheap flights to continue his volcanic explorations, this time on Tenerife! He enjoyed the weekend wandering the volcanic hills.
Max at MASC, York 2024
​
Max joined the group at the annual Royal Society of Chemistry Macrocyclic and Supramolecular Chemistry Conference in York. He enjoyed some fun chemistry, exploring York, getting into the Christmas Spirit and eating pizza!
Max on Lanzarote, 2024
​
Max enjoyed a weekend break on Lanzarote! He felt right at home in the old volcanoes, and even ventured to the beach.
