It's been an amazing collaboration so far between Jingjun Huang & Dave Leitch and the Leitch Lab at UniversityOfVictoria, Tommy Keenan & Francois Richard at Queen Mary University of London, and Alex Jean at Servier. Stay tuned for more
More excellent work from Neufeldt Lab ! This time delving into the subtleties of OA on heteoraryl halides and pseudohalides.
The Neufeldt lab has done some really outstanding work flushing out this important aspect of so much of modern CC

Our work on the mechanism of action of antibacterial nanofibers is out now in J. Am. Chem. Soc.. A bittersweet moment for us in the Manners group as we dedicate this paper to the big man himself - this was one of the last papers he submitted before he passed. You'll be missed, Ian!
Congratulations @drgauthi, collaborators Merck and our team for work out in Nature Chemistry showing functional group metathesis between in situ chlorinated carboxylic acids can offer a straightforward approach to carbon isotope labelling McGill Chemistry nature.com/articles/s4155…
Super happy to announce out latest ring expansion paper - out today in J. Am. Chem. Soc.
This is the culmination of 5 years hard work by lots of very talented and dedicated people in our Chemistry at York group - I am extremely grateful to them all.

Honored to be among the 'items of interest' in Organic Process Research & Development for 2 months in a row!
This month highlights our collaborative work with Arseniyadis on chiral Pd(0) precatalysts published in Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…
Huge thanks to the team! Chemistry@UVic UVic Science
Meet Dr. Nelson Lam, UVic's new Assistant Professor as of Summer 2024! His mission:
Establish a leading research group developing translatable catalytic methods targeting outstanding selectivity challenges that characterize contemporary organic synthesis.
Nelson Lam
Welcome to Chemistry@UVic UVic Science Nelson, we are all really excited to have you here later this year!
3 tenure-track positions open at UVic Science including Chemistry@UVic for Indigenous scholars. UVic has been ranked #1 in 🇨🇦 for promoting Indigenous visibility (Maclean’s 2022). #yyj is a great place to live, research and teach. Join us!
