Join us for the first CBSN seminar series of the year on Wednesday, January 17 at 4:00pm ET, featuring Phylicia Crichlow, a Research Analyst with the Black Health Equity Lab. lnkd.in/efEpWSsc

Join me in asking decision-makers to increase funding for grad students and postdoctoral scholars in Budget 2024! #SupportOurScience nwmd.io/s/twitter/ZBU6…

I am excited to share that I have joined the @ChemAshlee group at Concordia University continuing my postdoctoral journey by coming back to materials chemistry. #blackinchem #MOFLife

Thank you, Visions of Science, for the highlight, proud to be a past member of this amazing organization.

For March, the Canadian Black Scientists Network is proud to have Dr Shawn Hercules for the BE-STEMM Seminar Series. Dr Shawn Hercules will be sharing their research on breast cancer. Join us on March 20th at 4 pm; link registration: lnkd.in/efEpWSsc.

I got to guest lecture for a university course (Inorganic Chemistry) for the first time Concordia University; it was a lot of fun. Thanks @ChemAshlee, for the opportunity #STEMeducation

For April Seminar for the BE-STEMM Seminar Series, we have Dr. Rispah Janet Ochola talking about transformative education in chemistry. Please join us on Wednesday April 17th at 16:00 ET. Register Link: tinyurl.com/CBSN-SemSer

Budget 2024 announced an investment of over $2.6 Billion over 5 years to increase graduate student stipends and tri-council research grants. We are grateful to Minister François-Philippe Champagne (FPC) 🇨🇦 for his unwavering support for science in Canada.

Remember Dexter's Laboratory? I will be starting a new project soon, and My friend Estelle stylized me as one of my favourite shows growing up. I love it!

I made it to Winnipeg for #CSC2024. This is my first conference presenting has a Dr. Hussein! Excited to reconnect with the Canadian chemistry community and share some of the science I got up to in my PhD

Come check out my talk controlling the dynamics of bullvalene at #CSC2024 at Meeting room 1 at 3:40 pm today!

Congratulations to Victor Quezada from @ChemAshlee’s group for a well-deserved recognition “graduate award for Inorganic chemistry” from Canadian Society of Chemistry (#csc)

I am excited to be apart of this panel assessing the State of Science, Technology, and Innovation in Canada. I appreciate the opportunity from Council of Canadian Academies CCA_CAC where I can contribute as early career researcher.

A double whammy of papers on shapeshifting molecules are online now Chemical Science In doi.org/10.1039/D4SC03… Robert A. Ives PhD Will Maturi and the team categorise exactly what shapes bullvalenes can access (their stereodynamics)

And in doi.org/10.1039/D4SC03… Dr Burhan Hussein Will Maturi Aisha N. Bismillah 🍉 Dr Yuzhen WEN and the team show how E-to-Z configurational isomerization of a pendant group can be linked to the shapeshifting rearrangements of bullvalenes

Issue 36 is here. Our front cover this week features Paul R. McGonigal, Conor Rankine et al. 'A guide to bullvalene stereodynamics' doi.org/10.1039/D4SC03… #ChemSciCovers
