Absolutely lovely! Congratulations. Very interesting to see the non-helical conformation of Elk-1

Congrats to the newly minted Dr. Chris Azaldegui on a successful thesis defense 🎓🎉, and look out soon for his excellent work in collaboration with @cellforganized.bsky.social measuring how bacterial microcompartments are positioned!

Melanie Sanford has trained close to 100 graduate students and post-docs. Join us on Wednesday in a free webinar to hear first-hand insights about her career and the scientific discoveries from one of the most influential chemists of our time! #ChemSky #AcademicSky #AcademicChatter

I’m thrilled to share that I will be joining the Department of Chemistry at the University of Rochester as an Assistant Professor!

Great news: NIH postbac program is recruiting again! If your grad school plans were affected by program cutbacks or admissions freezes this year I highly encourage you to apply, this could be a perfect opportunity. Please repost. www.training.nih.gov/research-tra...

Congratulations to our new PhD candidate Caroline! The Mapp and Narayan labs are so proud of you! #Biocat #GoBlue @annamapp.bsky.social @alisonnarayan.bsky.social @umlifesciences.bsky.social

This is beautiful, Jordan. You are missed!

Today there are two symposia at the ACS in honor of Peter Dervan (11AM & 5PM). Although I can't be there to celebrate, I wanted to share a few reflections on my time in his lab (2009-2012) and the impact he's had on me as a scientist.

The 2025 Bioorganic GRC is officially OVERSUBSCRIBED! Blown away at the enthusiasm for this meeting. PSA: if you have been accepted please register ASAP as we have >70 (!) folks on the wait-list who would love your spot. Look forward to seeing you in New Hampshire!

A small molecule USP7 activator from the Buhrlage Group! Important information in the SI not to be missed: significant activity differences between enantiomers & an inactive control compound. A very strong data package further enabling studies of USP7 biology.

Friends, I am at a loss of words for how devastating it would be to lose the entire intramural #NIH program. Some of the biggest medical and scientific breakthroughs have come from scientists in the NIH Intramural program. #SaveTheNIH 🧬🧪 🖥️ 🧠 www.science.org/content/arti...

Thank you!!

Now that's some cool news for the day! I love it.

Looking forward to honoring David Gin tomorrow at the #chemicalbiology symposium in his honor. He was an excellent organic chemist who contributed to our understanding of #naturalproduct #vaccine adjuvants. We lost him way too soon.

Huge congratulations to my amazing colleague Prof. Kristin Koutmou for being awarded the 2024 MBioFAR award for her innovative science: record.umich.edu/articles/fiv... @MichiganChem #GoBlue

In our snazzy new hats tonight a group of us said farewell and thank you to three remarkable scientists and humans - Jason, Phoenix, Jorge - as they move on to the next part of their adventure...we know they will do great things

“Systems of white supremacy,” “structural racism,” “anti-blackness,” and similar terms can sometimes feel a bit academic. But this is what it looks like in practice. It’s a racial backlash meant to frustrate progress toward a more inclusive, multiracial democracy. Shame on those who remain silent.
