Big fun in Alerion 28 West Coast Championships this weekend

Congratulations to Prof. Anna Wuttig for being named a 2026 Camille Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar! The award honors early-career faculty in the chemical sciences who have created an outstanding independent body of scholarship and are deeply committed to education with undergraduates. shorturl.at/F6XCJ

I wrote 6 editions of Biochemistry which was lots of fun when it was not threatening to do me in. I am now the only survivor of that author team, but we now have a great team of new authors (who all worked hard on the last (10th edition) with me). Lubert's book turned 50 last year.

This is one of the saddest pieces I’ve read in a long time; brace yourself, it’s devastating I wish RFK Jr and his MAHA movement would read it (they won’t) 🎁 Link www.nytimes.com/2026/04/21/o...

Nice seminar trip to the U of Chicago and UW Madison Chemistry Depts. Learned much great science, and early spring weather, 60s and sunny one day, snowing soon after. good fun!
