Got to see my former Buchwald group labmate, Andy Thomas, yesterday. He visited Georgia Tech on his tenure tour and blew us all away with work from his group at Texas A&M. If you're into physical organic chemistry and synthetic methods, make sure you check him out!

Ooh I just found #Chemsky and I'm excited to follow some chemists over here! Just made the switch from the bad place.
