Hydrolysis Kinetics at the Air–Water Interface

Reactions at aqueous interfaces are significant in many disciplines and have recently been implicated in explaining the unique chemistry occurring in aqueous microdroplets. However, understanding the ...

Ironically, ChemTwitter seems to still have better engagement. I mirror my posts and it feels that they barely show up on feeds here or else. Idk

Still have goosebumps from meeting Dick Schrock at #ACSFall2025! Back in grad school I explored metal-carbene complexes and at every exam or review I was always asked, “Is it a Schrock or Fischer carbene?” Thank you, Dick, for shaping and inspiring so many of us

Hope is not something I feel frequently right now, so yesterday was a very special day.

I had the privilege to spend the day with the #CASFutureLeaders - meeting each of these brilliant scientists who are changing the world through their leadership and outreach was so uplifting and inspiring!

Overdue post, but heartfelt thanks to Kraig Wheeler, Trisha Russell, Michael Ruf & Brian Patrick for the outstanding Pacific Northwest Summer Crystallographic Institute at Whitworth! A deep dive into small molecule diffraction & Olex2.
Highly recommended!

Check out the stunning cover featuring recent paper from @hoseanelson.bsky.social Lab, led by our one and only @daverdude.bsky.social! He discovered an entire class of natural products using microED powered by arrayED

Chem Camp aka #ORPGRC2025 reminded me why this is more than science, it's about community. Grateful to lead a stellar session with talks by @christinemle.bsky.social, Osvaldo, Lin, Antonio & Diana. Special thanks to @kuhokie42.bsky.social & Dave for inviting me!

Such fun week! So great to meet you irl at last. I feel it is a quest now: get a photo all 4 of us with @bagphos.bsky.social and @kuhokie42.bsky.social 🤣

Less than a decade ago, reactions for adding, deleting, and swapping single atoms in complex organic molecules were almost unheard of. Now there’s a growing community of researchers working on them. cen.acs.org/synthesis/Sk... #chemsky 🧪

Skeletal editing: How close are we to true cut-and-paste chemistry?

Reactions that alter organic scaffolds by a single atom are already proving useful, but time will tell if they’ll fundamentally change how molecules are made
