Trust me when I say, the pleasure was all on my end, josh groban

What song could be more apt than one which says "240 thousand miles from the moon; We've come a long way to belong here to; share this view of the night, a glorious night; Over the horizon is another bright sky"? Thus, I nominate '93 Million Miles' by Jason MMRRRaz #NASAMoonTunes

So...It's my birthday today. What this means is that instead of being a 23 yr old who has no clue about his life, I'm now a 24 yr old who has no clue about his life. Woop fu**ing doo! #HappyBirthdayToMe

Bending backwards to please others. Stretching to your limits to make ends meet. Sitting cross legged on the floor and thinking that you're not as smart. Lying on the ground and crying because it's all too much to handle. Happy #InternationalDayofYoga to people my age!

HOT WEATHER ADVICE Drink water. More. Drink more water than that. Even more. Keep going. Nearly enough. Bit more. TOO MUCH now you’re a mermaid.

He who laughs last, laughs loudest. He is also super annoying.

Craig J Hawker writes about an imp&very underrated and overlooked aspect of research...Networking, and mentorships. nature.com/articles/s4157… I would love to see graduate colleges providing atleast an elective on how to make use of & have a fluorishing metor/mentee relationship.

Preparing a presentation on molecular motors for course by Schalley group, I was introduced to the works of Dr Feringa...and was instantly captivated. And this attitude of using chemistry as a unifying power...it just makes me like him a lot more.

Dr Godenough, still going to his lab every day at 97...I can only hope to have this level of enthusiasm for science during the coming years, and decades!

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is what a good announcement looks/sounds like...on the other hand, I might be a bit biased since David Mitchell is involved!

I always say that my MSc Thesis with Hopkinson Research Group was one of the best chemistry experiences I've had....and now along with a thesis, I have another reminder of it! congrats to Andreas Mavroskoufis for the paper, and thanks for tolerating me in the lab for 4 odd months!

The “great democracies” of this planet have collectively lost their minds.

For every academic stuck at home, juggling stress and workload, here's something to make you laugh (or cry, depending on how you relate)! Adapted from the Piled Higher and Deeper comics by the truly great PHD Comics...who's all the more awesome for making the movies free :)

The clamps as a hook..has me shook! But also, if it's a columne we need to run, it certainly is not the 'jolly roger' anymore!

Wait....does...does the speaker know what's in haemoglobin? And one shot of a protein with a metal magnetizes your entire body?! I can only hope my artificial metalloenzymes have that sort of efficiency!

1966... I guess we're gonna keep hearing this year again next Eurocup! It went Rome, after all!

Never a dull moment with the Jarvis Lab!

Congrats Eva Klemencic!

Apparently it takes 2.5 weeks for it to sink in...Thanks to David Clarke and Anca Pordea for a very fruitful discussion. As always, a massive thanks to my labmates in Jarvis Lab over the years for their support and to Amanda Jarvis for allowing me to be a part of it all.

10 years walking the hallowed corridors of universities in 3 countries...very glad to announce that the efforts have come good and I get to work on what promises to be a very exciting collaboration between industry and academia!
