Alright! It's time for me to recruit and hire my first Postdoctoral Researcher to join the The McReynolds Lab! at Penn State BMB !!! If you're passionate about metabolically engineering yeast, exploring cofactor imbalance, delving into redox homeostasis, and mastering mass spectrometry,

Announcing the 2024 #CASFutureLeaders! This group of exceptional Ph.D. students and postdoctoral scholars will join us in August to take the next steps in their leadership journeys. Congratulations to our 2024 class! ow.ly/abiu50R0YQM

Well deserved, congrats Pat!

We have a lot planned and you won’t want to miss this opportunity to visit Penn State and Penn State Chemistry! There are 400+ presentations scheduled! #MARM2024

Repeat after me: Don't think about what can happen in a month. Don't think about what can happen in a year. Just focus on the 24 hours in front of you and do what you can to get closer to where you want to be. Now take a breath and keep it moving, we got this.

If you're a postdoc in chemistry (broadly defined) and planning to apply for academic positions, apply to be part of the Postdoc-to-PI Symposium at Penn State to get interview experience and faculty feedback! science.psu.edu/chem/postdoc-t…

We're hiring for multiple positions in all areas of microbiology! Apply to be colleagues in the fantastic Penn State BMB department in Penn State Eberly College of Science! It's a fantastic place to work with lots of great core facilities through Huck Institutes. psu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/PSU_Academic/j…

We are hiring! The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Penn State ⁦Penn State BMB⁩ invites applicants for multiple tenure-track Assistant Professor positions in the broad areas of genetics, cell and developmental biology! Check us out! psu.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/PSU_Acad…

Proud of this one, and especially proud of Amber Scharnow 🌈 for taking it to the next level for #teamcarolacton !

Join us for our #MidAtlanticEWOC social hour in Philly on Sat, August 24th 🏙️ We are so excited to have Zhenzhen Dong (PharmaBlock) as our special guest ✨ 📍Register here - forms.office.com/r/F3yJUrSzQK

Five days before her birthday, @CarolynBertozzi got an early morning call from Stockholm telling her she had received the 2022 #NobelPrize in Chemistry and snapped this selfie. Who will receive the 2024 chemistry prize? Mark your calendars for 9 October to find out.

Delighted to share our work developing an mRNA vaccine for C. difficile, published today in Science Magazine. This study with The Drew Weissman Lab was co-led by two truly amazing scientists: Alexa Sem from the Zackular lab and Mohamad-Gabriel Alameh (now at CHOP Research)! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Just out from the Booker Lab! Squire J. Booker Hayley Knox, PhD #ACSBioMedChemAu Structural Evidence for DUF512 as a Radical S-Adenosylmethionine Cobalamin-Binding Domain | ACS Bio & Med Chem Au pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

We are thrilled that Squire Booker will be joining the Depts of Chemistry and UPenn Dept of Biochem & Biophys as a Penn-Integrates-Knowledge Professor in January 2025.  Squire is a world-renowned enzymologist, HHMI Investigator, and dedicated mentor.  Welcome! Penn Arts & Sciences Squire J. Booker

A truly spooky Zackular lab meeting today! Thats way too many Joe’s. The Dunkin' is an important touch.

I'm excited to share this contribution in ACS Bio & Med Chem Au from Rongsheng Wang and colleagues at Temple University. Rongsheng was chosen as one of our 2024 Rising Stars in Biological, Medicinal, and Pharmaceutical Chemistry!! pubs.acs.org/doi/epdf/10.10…. ACS Publications Bio & Med Chem Content #OpenAccess
