We are pleased to announce the opening of the Orbital Garden – admission is free! Take a guided tour, play a game or wander freely. Learn all about the structure of the hydrogen atom and enjoy the view. Visit the...

A series of interactive Spin Chemistry simulations are now available on the website. These have been carefully crafted based on Prof. Woodward’s lecture course to demonstrate some of the key principles of radical pair...

Our latest research on the mechanism of the Low Field Effect in Radical Pairs has just been published in the Journal of Chemical Physics. This work provides a simple, intuitive picture of the effect of weak magnetic...

Last night, we held a party to properly welcome two new members, Sota and Su to the group. Much Mexican food was consumed and we were lucky to be joined by former group members Ujjwala and Siyi!

The Woodward Group now has a new website. The address is unchanges but we have a new look and new contents. Please visit at: https://opes.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp/spinchem

We have published a new article concerned with providing a simple way to understand the Low Field Effect on BiorXiv. The paper can be accessed at the following link: The low-field effect in radical pairs: a zero-field...

Our latest research has just been published with accompanying press releases: Japanese press release: https://www.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp/info/news/topics/20260331140000.html English press release:...

Jonny recently returned from a trip to Germany. He spent a week teaching at the Windischleuba NMR Summer School ( https://cidnp.net/summer-schools/ ). The theme of this year’s school was Spin Chemistry. Jonny had a...

Yesterday, Jonny gave the first lecture of the Guy Foundation’s 2026 series on Magnetic Fields and Biology. You can find more information about the lecture series here:...

Jonny will give a Plenary Lecture at the Molecular Biophysics Workshop in September 2026 in Matushima Japan. https://mbw2026.sciencesconf.org/resource/page/id/3

On December 9th we held our Christmas pot luck party. It was great to have former member Siyi join us for the festivities!

Jonny and Shogo both gave presentations at SEST annual conference in Kiryu ( https://sest-nenkai.org/2025/ ). It was great to catch up with other Spin Chemists in Japan.
