Grant final report

Look at this bs from the book I’m teaching ochem out of this fall, from a book that is supposed to give students an orbital based understanding of reactivity. Are you kidding me?

Congrats to Dr. Komadhie for defending her PhD! Check out her most recent paper published in May, which snuck onto the list of most read J Org Chem/Org Lett papers for the month! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

T&P committees dividing credit on multi-PI papers.

Paper out! My project on new photocages with @rhodamine110 is published in J. Am. Chem. Soc.. The new photocage (“ABC cage”) is useful for preparing caged drugs that contain tertiary amine or pyridine moieties.Shu-Hsien Sheu HHMI | Janelia pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

When a papermill boasted how they could increase Google Scholar citations and showed their working, Reese Richardson and I decided to try for ourselves. Introducing Larry Richardson, a cat with a Google Scholar profile and an h-index of 11. reeserichardson.blog/2024/07/18/eng…

Art's Dictum: Any metric that doesn't involve reading a scientist's papers is BS. Exceptions? There are none.

Welcome to being a PI

A Winter in spring

Congrats to Kirill Kuznetsov for his article just accepted in Chemical Science on the (photo-)cytotoxicity of some photocages, which were found to be far from being inert carriers. Wonderful collaboration with Art Winter CARIOU Kevin Chimie ParisTech | PSL doi.org/10.1039/D5SC04…

Fun collaboration with Wachtveitl Lab on two-photon BODIPY photocaging using short-wave IR light! Congrats to Yagmur and Alexandra! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

This might cost us a few bocs...
