Thoughts on ITC preference- the good/bad/annoying- between a Microcal PEAQ-ITC and TA Affinity ITC?? 🧪 #Chemsky #Sciencesky

It is really funny that Jimmy Kimmel Live showed more moral fortitude and adherence to a system of values than Columbia University

"Who would have predicted this?" - Black women did. - Trans people did. - The *entire* disability community did. - The anarchists did. - Post-Evangelicals did. "Well why didn't I hear them." You did. But you disregarded us as "extremists" and "alarmists". And you are still calling us that.

Excited to share this story on the protein crystallography CURE I developed and have been teaching for the last 3 years! www.vassar.edu/news/student... This course is supported by my #CottrellScholars Award from RCSA. @rescorp.org @vassar.bsky.social #grantsinaction #biochemistry

Public media has been defunded. Your support keeps journalists on the ground, lifts unheard voices, and connects communities. Help us plan for what’s next. Make a monthly gift today. Stand with public media: n.pr/458sOhq

Also if you at at #ACA2025 and missed my talk today, you can catch my other talk on Tuesday in 4.2.3 Engaging Students with Crystallography where I will share lessons learned from creating/running a protein crystallography CURE!

Gave a talk in the Hot Structures session today at #ACA2025 in Chicago! Fun fact: the first conference talk I ever gave was in 2010 at my first ACA meeting, also in the Hot Structures session, also in Chicago!! (See bonus pic below of me attending ACA2010) ☺️ And if you see me at #ACA2025 say hi!

And now @biophyskrys.bsky.social giving a hot strucutres talk on BoPDA, a polysaccharide deacetylase. Another great study and talk! #ACA2025 @acastructuralsci.bsky.social

Great Hot Structures session at #ACA2025! ACA Etter Student Award winner Sarah Narehood, @biophyskrys.bsky.social, Nikolas Capra, Rachel Kretsch, Debanu Das, Daniel Richman @acastructuralsci.bsky.social

we’ve totally normalized that he’ll interfere with private business if he’s not paid off. every legal expert said this suit was meritless.

I would like for wealthy people excited for tax cuts to sign a piece of paper acknowledging that every dollar they get in tax breaks is going to be paid for by someone else…either someone not getting healthcare or SNAP or some future person paying higher taxes to pay the interest on our new debt.

Fro the last few years, as part of a final assignment in my senior biophysical chem class I ask students to share a class-related memes, with ones they make themselves highly encouraged! For everyone's enjoyment, here are some of my favorites! #chemistry #biochemistry #sigfigs #units 🧪

“No right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates.” –Justice Sonia Sotomayor. One of the most chilling sentences I have ever read.

Same coin. Anti-DEI orders assume people of color can’t possible be qualified. Cries of reverse racism assume white people can’t possibly be unqualified. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/05/u...

I've seen folks talk about how "in four years" they'll be able to get back to their planned projects and I really don't think that's going to work out. People & projects losing funding now will not be able to hit pause and come back once funding is restored. Hard-won progress & capacity will be lost

Hi everyone! It's Daniel and Eesha taking over for Jonesy lab at NYU! Meet our wonderful PI, Jonesy, an RNA structure enthusiast 🧬 Be sure to check out our lab website :) wp.nyu.edu/labjonesy/

Today we have @jonesylab.bsky.social taking over our social media and giving us insights into her #PI life! 🤩 Stay tuned! #BIBPSWeek

✨ I’m overjoyed to share that I’ve been promoted to associate professor with tenure in chemistry at Vassar College!! Honored to now join the 2% of Black women who are tenured faculty in the US. So grateful to my family & friends, my colleagues & mentors, & all my amazing students! ✨🧪

It’s #BIBPSWeek Day 3! 🙌🏾 Today is #BIBPSResearch at 12pm PST!!! Join us for an engaging discussion with McKenze Moss at @notredame.bsky.social and Dr. Trevor GrandPre (@myphysicsjourney.bsky.social) 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Don't forget to register! 🚨🚨🚨 Just follow this link: my.biophysics.org/Events/Calen...

Planted this last year, and really enjoying the benefits today 🌸 #blooms #gardening

I think about this comic at least once a week

Same.

Tufts University student Rumeysa Ozturk was released from ICE detention on Friday, offering brief words of thanks to supporters gathered outside the Louisiana facility. "Thank you so much for all the support and love," she said.

One of the best articles I’ve read that echoes my own experiences in speaking with early career trainees and working through my own well-informed concerns.

Headed to the NIAID NIH campus for the first time today for a meeting! Lovely morning views of the Hudson River from the train.

Speaking to NPR in his first media interview since his detention, lawful permanent U.S. resident Mohsen Mahdawi finds peace in meditation and hopes "America will fulfill its promise."

Midday walk, enjoying the lovely Spring weather 🌸 So very lucky to work in such a beautiful place #Vassar @vassar.bsky.social

Sigh.

Happy World Penguin Day to all penguins, but especially Nils, who didn’t let living in Edinburgh (or being a penguin) stop him from becoming The Colonel-in-Chief of the Norwegian King’s Guard. He’s also been knighted. His official title is Brigadier Sir Nils Olav III and here he is looking regal af

All 27 scientists at this CDC lab were told their duties were "unnecessary," and now viral outbreak investigations have been halted.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.
