I am thrilled to share that I'll be joining the Department of Chemistry at NYU NYU Chemistry as an Assistant Professor this summer. I’m extremely thankful for the support of my incredible mentors Jin Yulab, Seth Herzon Lab, Scott Miller Group and Jimmy Jimmy Wu.

Congrats to Marvin Parasram on his milestone talk in NYU Chem today!

It’s finally here! New things coming… Stay tuned👀

Fresh work in Org. Lett. highlighting a new method for lignin degradation. 🌲🌱🌳Congratulations to Sam, Mason, and Jambu! Check it out here: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

EIC recommended #OrgLett reading: Selective Cleavage of Lignin Model Compounds via a Reverse Biosynthesis Mechanism. New from Diao Lab. Learn more here: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Congrats to Ethan Spielvogel for passing his qualifying exam! We are all so proud of you 🥳🍾

The Diao Group circa Summer 2023. Welcome to all of our new members, Jin (PD), Bianca (PD), Maria (UG), and Nicole (UG)!

This week in #OrgLett we feature the work of Diao Lab on our front cover: Selective Cleavage of Lignin Model Compounds via a Reverse Biosynthesis Mechanism. Please have a look at this and all the new Letters pubs.acs.org/toc/orlef7/25/…
