Last week marked my official farewell to @mit.edu, and it was definitely not easy to say goodbye.

Over the past two years, I explored new approaches to phosphorus chemistry, from recycling phosphates to uncovering unusual intermediates.

Excited to share more about the next step in my journey soon!

As Bluesky is rapidly emerging as the new online gathering place for chemists (and the scientific community in general), I tried making an INORG CHEM starter pack!

If your research involves inorganic chemistry of any flavor and I've missed you, please lmk.

Of course! This is a really great study. Actually, I am currently involved in a collaboration with the Surendranath group to further explore this chemistry!

Pawel Löwe @pawelloewe.bsky.social · Nov 30

Sure 😊

Pawel Löwe @pawelloewe.bsky.social · Nov 28

Great list! Would appreciate an add as well 🙂

Pawel Löwe @pawelloewe.bsky.social · Nov 25

Just added him 😎😀

Thanks, Thomas! 😊 For some reason I was unable to find him with the search function...

Pawel Löwe @pawelloewe.bsky.social · Nov 24

I am working on a Phosphorus Chemistry starter pack. Happy for any suggestions! #ChemSky

It seems like the answer to whether there was an Organometallic starter pack was no so here's one - send me a message or comment and I can add you! #chemsky go.bsky.app/RhG7mRD

I am currently listening to "Think Again" by @adamgrant.bsky.social and so far I think it's really good.

Tag yourself with the job you’d actually have in the Star Wars universe given your hobby

I’d be the Jedi assistant librarian furiously writing essays about how we might be training way too many younglings and padawans for as many Jedi Knight and Jedi Master titles that are being granted

Tag yourself with the job you’d actually have in the Star Wars universe given your occupation

I’d be the Rebel engineer officer screaming at leadership on Hoth that a linear defense against armor is useless unless you’ve got integrated minefields and obstacle belts linking in with the terrain
