Greta piece on recent paper from ACS Cent Sci!

Prof. Stavroula Hatzios from Yale, and former Bertozzi PhD, will be sharing a Chem Bio Seminar on "Uncovering Hidden Redox Transformations by the Human Microbiome" today at 3PM in STLC 114. brnw.ch/21wXgB5

If said women work for your competitors, I guess maybe

The US awards the Medal of Honor "to recognize American soldiers, sailors, marines, airmen, guardians, and coast guardsmen who have distinguished themselves by acts of valor." Curious fact. Only 1 woman (of 3547) has been awarded it: Mary Edwards Walker. And the US tried to take hers back.

Work published today in @natbiotech.nature.com from Arc’s Luke Gilbert and Patrick Hsu labs presents a new way to insert large DNA sequences into the genome using engineered recombinases that don’t require DNA cutting or rely on the cell's repair machinery.

On Ground Truths, I'll be talking with Dr. Susan Monarez today, her first interview since leaving her post as CDC Director 1 PM PT (4 PM ET) Join us, subscribe (it's free) erictopol.substack.com

Proud of our latest #glycotime review.

I am delighted to share our recent collaborative progress towards drug-like glycomimetics for lectins with @anneimb.bsky.social and Roche. Published in @angewandtechemie.bsky.social #ChemBio #Glycotime onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

My 11-year-old subscribes to Teen Vogue and reads the newsletters almost daily. It's been a reliable source of news for her, and fodder for thoughtful dinner table discussions. Now, it will serve a new role in our house--as an opportunity to learn about boycotting companies that let us down.

Joining us from Purdue, Prof. Gaurav Chopra will be giving a Chemical Biology Seminar on "How do Glial and Immune Cells become Dysfunctional in Aging and Neurodegeneration?" today at 3PM in STLC 114. chemistry.stanford.edu/events/chemi...

New research published in ACS Central Science explores a sensor that could allow us to easily diagnose influenza within the comfort of our homes, using just our sense of taste. Read more on ACS Axial: buff.ly/iqgH94g

Participants are now enrolling in our #longCovid randomized, controlled trial of tirzepatide. The largest trial to test a treatment for this condition. Home-based—no sites. In today's @sandiegouniontribune.com www.sandiegouniontribune.com/2025/11/01/c...

We've just launched the first large, site-less (home, direct to participant) randomized trial for treatment of #LongCovid, testing tirzepatide (a GLP-1 drug) vs placebo. Please help spread the word www.scripps.edu/news-and-eve...

Congratulations, we are so lucky to have Nicole Martinez among our institute scholars @stanford-chemh.bsky.social 🙏

Our next Keynote Speaker will be Dr. Simon Wisnovsky from UBC who will be talking on mapping the genomic landscape of cancer glycome remodeling with genome-wide CRISPR. His work is consistently recognized with many awards and we are very excited to have him at GIA2025. @wisnovskylab.bsky.social

Congratulations @sciencedarla.bsky.social !! Great choice to lead @faseborg.bsky.social. Had the privilege of working with Darla @pubs.acs.org, she was the architect of our open access strategy including the vision that became ACS Cent Sci 🙏

Move over, mole day: happy #bioorthogonal copper-free click chemistry day to all who celebrate! 🎉 www.livescience.com/chemistry/sc... @carolynbertozzi.bskyverified.social

Happy to share the final version of this work out in ACS CS. Inspired by ‘binding-focused’ chemoproteomic methods, we developed a ‘function-focused’ strategy to agnostically identify degradable proteins. This was a big team effort led by @inesforrest.bsky.social and in collaboration with AbbVie.

This year’s Merck-Banyu Lectureship Award winner is Professor Koji Kubota from Hokkaido University. We are thrilled to welcome him to Stanford Chemistry on Thursday, October 23rd where he will give an exciting lecture on "Exploring Synthetic Mechanochemistry." chemistry.stanford.edu/events/merck...

Thrilled to return to UC Berkeley for the Clayton Heathcock Lecture on November 4!

I love this story 😊

Please read this.

A university that signs the “compact” is one that acknowledges its own inability to compete and succeed based talent and merit. It would signal insecurity and mediocrity to current and future students and faculty. Say no. Recruit the best people, protect their freedom and support their hard work.

My note to @vanderbilt.edu: 1/ I am writing as the son of two Vandy alumni. My father also received his medical degree from Vanderbilt. I strongly urge you to say "No" to the Compact circulated by the Trump Administration to universities across the country.

Laura Dassama, PhD, assistant professor of microbiology and immunology and of chemistry, is developing a new therapy for patients who, like her, live with sickle cell disease. Hear her story on the Health Compass Podcast with Maya Adam. stan.md/4n8jD6y
