The best things on twitter right now are David Evans (David A Evans) telling stories about the history of organic chemistry and tales of everything along the way. Personal insights into the people who defined how we think about key ideas in organic chemistry. Please keep tweeting…

Who is the first year? Who is the PI? The world may never know.

Johnson lab Zoom chat is up and running. Visiting students - check your email for details on joining! We answer your questions, we talk research, we share funny gifs. It's a party. #virtualUNCchem #keepitcatalytic

Check out our most recent publication on benzenoid dearomatization in J. Am. Chem. Soc. ! Congratulations to Kendrick, Cody, and Will! 🍾🎉 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Several folks have requested that Heterocycles Classes be made available on YouTube (they are already on iTunes U). Here is a link to the 19 lectures from 2019 as well as all lecture handouts in the ensuing tweets: youtube.com/watch?v=H7ZiI8…

It's been 2 weeks since students returned to campus and this is the 4th cluster reported in 3 days. Maybe more planning should have taken place instead of just saying "we're all in this together" over and over again.

I'm glad to see a change in a positive direction and can only hope that undergraduates start to de-densify campus and actually start social distancing outside of campus

Over the weekend, I peaked and was on NPR. My mom was the most excited I've ever heard her be. Now accepting recommendations for what to make my waitwait voicemail

Got a call from my dad at 10:45 pm and started worrying that something was wrong. Everything was fine, he just needed to be walked through making an instagram post.

We always eat outside and joke that we'll end up in a brochure and I guess it happened now

Big news out of the Johnson group this week: our most recent publication is now in Science Magazine ! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… 1/

Very excited to see my first project come out, where we explore the reactivity of dearomatized iminiums for the synthesis of some cool spirocycles!

So glad to see this paper come out! It was a fun project to work on during my internship at BI last summer!

Today we celebrated a phenol-menal final defense from Bob Wiley on his dearomatization work using weak heteroatom-heteroatom bonds as internal oxidants. Congratulations, Dr. Wiley!
