NGL the single most frightening thing I feel about staying in US as a potential grad student is this. SHOOTINGS NEED TO STOP ! My heart goes out to the victim and his family.

Today was a hard day in Chapel Hill. I’m thankful everyone in the @LeibfarthGroup is safe. There is something surreal in seeing law enforcement point a gun at the spot I have stood in front my fumehood for the last 4 years in Caudill Labs.

Radicalizing PLP chemistry in a whole new 'light' ! Definitely one of the best promiscuous biocatalysis works I read so far ! Congrats to @yang2biocat and coworkers for putting together this amazing piece of work (P.S: I love the super detailed supporting information as well !)

We published our first paper on pyridoxal radical biocatalysis in @ScienceMagazine : . What we are most excited about is the ability to design general biocatalytic activation modes which are both new-to-biology and new-to-chemistry:

@dryeeseeks This is so awesome ! The first time I used Prusa was during my summer REU in US last summer, got obsessed with 3d printing but sadly I don't find Prusas back here. Seeing so many lined up ...no I am not envious.

@angew_chem @iacskolkata @RadCatGroup @Jayanta28656671 [3/n] Now we can incorporate oximes together with sulfones across olefinic bonds in an atom-economic, regioselective and diastereoselective (syn -CN/H) fashion. Diverse chemical space probed and late stage functionalization included ! #Oximesulfonylation just got started !

This is inspiring , doing science isn't enough now, fighting back pseudo and fake science is equally relevant !

Today’s students will become better scientists. Their dreams are often shattered by the reality of academia. So, they show a pushback against the academic culture that is focused on quantity and flashy results. ▫️ The story with Stanford’s President shows one such example.

Jiaqian was one of the most amazing people I met at UMN, a perfect inspiration of undaunted perseverance. I really miss several of our "Asian only" talks and also those buffallo wings, wish you all the luck in your post PhD life. Arghhh I am never gonna get over summer 2022 !

Thought carbonyls were the only way out for synthesizing oximes ? Check out the recent work from our lab in #OrgLett : direct C(sp3)-H oximation reported using organophotocatalysis . Rapid access to functionalized oximes using EOSIN-Y HAT is here to rock the stage :

Just out in #OrgLett , the efficient and direct introduction of an oxime functional group at inert C(sp3)−H bonds, perhaps the most appealing synthetic strategy for formation of functionalized oximes. Reported by Guin et al. @Jayanta28656671 @iacskolkata

The best thing I feel about protein science is the intense narrative and perseverance involved behind elucidating roles of each protein, a landmark in the Cry-Tim epic has been etched!Kudos for such a substantial contribution to the field by the Crane group ! @BRCraneLab @Nature
