From @nytopinion.nytimes.com “It proved an American misstep, fueled by xenophobia, that would forever alter the global balance of power.” Kathleen Kingsbury, the editor of Times Opinion, tells the cautionary story of a Chinese scientist who was deported from the U.S. during the Cold War.

#PhDposition in Computational #Astrobiology & #QuantumChemistry! Join us at Chalmers in 🇸🇪. Collab with NASA's JPL and @starsarecalling.bsky.social in 🇺🇸. @astrobiology.bsky.social @thephdplace.bsky.social @bluemarblespace.bsky.social #chemsky #compchem www.chalmers.se/en/about-cha...

🧪 Update: Speaker list announced! Includes former NIH chief of staff, former NSF program officer, NIH grantee who got a termination, and experts to give a legal overview (but not legal advice). Spots may fill up (no joke: they did last Fri), so log in early tomorrow: aaas.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

@robertpalgrave.bsky.social's meme game is as good as his science!

⏰ Not long until the submission deadline for this exciting cross-journal collection, Guest Edited by @brgoch.bsky.social, @virtualatoms.bsky.social, @molecularxtal.bsky.social, Kedar Hippalgaonkar and David Scanlon. Full details on the scope and submission process at blogs.rsc.org/jm/2024/11/2...

Diversity is our greatest asset, even if the government disagrees… They not like us! POC in STEM are here to stay. They tried to rig the game but you can’t fake influence! Mustard on the [Be][At] bro. Happy Black History Month!

Reminder: If you're newer-ish to BlueSky and want to find the accounts that a lot of the people you follow, follow, you can go here: bsky-follow-finder.theo.io. Enter your handle and have it analyze. I particularly like the "sort by proportion," which will get a lot of ppl related to your interests.

RCSA has named 16 early career teacher-scholars in chemistry, physics, and astronomy as recipients of its 2025 #CottrellScholar Awards. Each awardee receives $120,000. Congratulations to this distinguished class!

My two most common editorial suggestions for manuscripts I handle are: (i) improve writing style by avoiding exaggerated terms, and (ii) ensure machine learning studies include a repository for reproducibility and reuse of models and data #EditorLife #ChemSky

I've taken a tiny step against facism by making a backup of the Department of Energy (NREL, specifically) Laboratory Analytical Procedure documents that I use periodically at work. I can't promise to track document updates or anything, but at least if these are deleted we'll have something. #ChemSky

Tragic.

Snow days used to be fun! Prepping the lab (and home) for worst case scenario…again. We have this down to an art. #houston

I made it to #BioSphere2 for the #MateriAlZwinterschool. Thank you @christinabirkel.bsky.social for the invitation. I'm excited to spend the week with talented undergrads from across the country and get to talk about Materials and Chemistry!

Since PCCP doesn't have a BlueSky account just yet, I'm promoting some #PCCP content on #ChemSky Do you know an emerging physical chemist who deserves recognition? Nominations are now open for the 2025 PCCP Emerging Investigator Lectureship! Nominate here: www.rsc.org/journals-boo...

Multiple PhD positions available in our group in the field of computational and theoretical chemistry Feel free to forward the info and please apply via [email protected]

Start of another day of #F24MRS and thick snow on the 30th+ floor of my hotel ❄️ Energy levels are somewhat running low at this point of the week and it’s tempting to crawl back into bed and watch the snow fall, but plenty of great science still to come 💪 #KeepGoing #TravellingScientist

The critical elements include gallium, germanium, antimony and ‘superhard materials’ such as diamond, cubic boron nitride and other related materials. www.chemistryworld.com/news/china-b...

Heading home from #F24MRS where I saw a ton of cool new research (especially in explainable AI) and also learned I’m not cut out for the cold anymore!

Want to work on oxides for power electronics? We have a 3.5 year DPhil (PhD) project on gallium oxide available in our group starting Oct 25 🙌 Do get in touch if you have any questions 💡 chem.web.ox.ac.uk/sitefiles/re...

This was published a little while ago in @naturechemistry.bsky.social, but has just popped up in my issue e-alert. This is a delightful correspondence about fonts and chemistry; very much appealing to my inner chemistry nerd 🤣 #Chemsky

The registration deadline for the @roysocchem.bsky.social Solid-State Chemistry Group Christmas meeting is this Sunday, the 1st of December #chemsky #compchem

For chemist Kris Hansen, 3M was a family affair; her father was a creator of the company’s N95 face masks. Yet, after she found 3M’s forever chemicals in human blood, the company repeatedly doubted her work and stopped her research on the chemicals. By @fastlerner.bsky.social

I’ve attended the Materials Research Society Fall Meeting for some time. First for buzzing conductive oxide symposia, then an era of overflowing halide perovskite rooms, and now I’m quite drawn to #AIforScience. Looking forward to placing my finger on the pulse of #f24mrs this week #ChemSky

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to turn the starter pack into My Feeds? That would be cool and make it easier to follow each group!

Amazing!

On average, this halide #perovskite is cubic, but locally it dances. Beautiful visualisation (with time averaging) by Will Baldwin using www.ovito.org based on Atomic Cluster Expansion force fields reported in onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... #CompChem #CompChemSky

Wow, this is now one of the best pictures I've ever seen chemsky 🧪

And another one! Sorry inorganic material chemists, I hadn't come across this one yet. You are all amazing, and the omission wasn't intentional! Inorganic materials chemistry go.bsky.app/CKnAwGa

Who's going to be in Boston?? #MRS

We are looking for a postdoc with a background in synthetic organic chemistry to develop new organic radical-based probes for solid-state dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP)-NMR spectroscopy. #chempostdocs #chempostdocjobs isu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/IowaStat…

I’m creating a Starter Pack for AI/ML in science. This includes people who create models, benchmarks, data resources, those with insightful views on the topic, and other relevant areas. If that’s you or someone you know, say hello below! 👇 👋

Welcome to everyone new to Bluesky! Here's a short (illustrated) primer that explains how Feeds work and offers a few steps you can take to get the content you want, when you want it, on your terms. There are sports feeds, Gift Link feeds, community feeds, and more! A 🧵

I am moving over to Bsky and building my #chemsky network! This feels like as much work as moving houses!
