Abstract
By combining operando resonant X-ray scattering and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations we show that counterion positions within the lattice of a prototypical organic mixed ionic/electronic conductor (OMIEC) change as a function of its charge state.

Abstract
A series of N-sulfonylphenoxazines were synthesised and tested for CaV2.2 and CaV3.2 ion channel inhibition. Compounds with low micromolar activity for CaV2.2 had good plasma stability and liver microsomal stability, and favourable CNS MPO scores.
