"Now say you had it tough as a kid because you didn't have Sky TV!"

Now fully PhD gowned up featuring Johnston Lab ADS Group (and a computational imposter..) while Watson Group were on the grind at the Perkin meeting 🧪 Happy to be continuing the current group’s current tradition of donning John McGuff’s tartan, the man himself next!

People in England complaining about public transport, meanwhile Stagecoach East Scot is capable of time travel

don't worry Rishi Sunak we've got a seat for you

My research on Alkenylidene Homologation, enabled by SNV mechanism, is now officially online nature! Thrilled to demonstrate how colorful🌈🌈🌈, fully-substituted cross-conjugated polyenes can be synthesized at will. nature.com/articles/s4158…

You could say that was Laporte spin allowed 👀

In this J. Am. Chem. Soc. study led by Alina, we explore the Geraniline family of molecules. We evaluate fascinating planar chirality and synthetic applications of these terpenoid derivatives. Many thanks go to Matt, Chelsey, and Nuro. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Earning my blue lab coat for voyaging across the pond - great to be settling in with everyone at Andrei Yudin lab University of Toronto in sunny Toronto! 🇨🇦

At last settling the debate that med chemists are more aggressive than natural product & methodology chemists

Putting the ceramic egg to hard work, fab lab BBQ hosted by the man himself!🍗 🥩

Implicit or explicit? That really is the question (for the synthetic potential of multiborylated alkanes), out now in Nature Portfolio Nature Reviews Chemistry (!) Huge thanks Allan Watson and Dr Dean Roberts for the support on this ‘boron behemoth’ Watson Group tinyurl.com/3dkz34rt

The 2024 Noble Prize in physics has been awarded to Cillian Murphy and Margot Robbie for the Barbenheimer effect. This phenomenon, involving the superposition of two very attractive people, allows physics to become interesting, a state which is otherwise spin-forbidden.

BREAKING NEWS: The 2024 Noble Prize for Peace has been awarded to Drake and Kendrick Lamar, for musical methods of conflict resolution. The UN has predicted that by 2050, most international conflicts will be resolved with diss tracks in place of military force.
