Congrats to former postdoc, Dr. Johannes Karges who's review "Metal complexes as Antiviral Agents for SAR-CoV-2" was among the most cited articles in ChemBioChem.

From the #lab to the canvas, this ACS Analytical Chemistry Journals cover "See a Scientist. Be a Scientist" by Dr. Semarhy Quiñones-Soto celebrates #diversity in #chemistry & is an inspirational piece for young women in #STEM! 👏 #BlackHistoryMonth #ACS_DEIR #BHM2023

There’s a meetup happening in the western sky: the crescent Moon sits close to Jupiter, with Venus below them. Jupiter and Venus will continue to cozy up until March 1, when they’ll be at their closest. Have you spotted these three in the sky? Snap a picture and send it to us!

Economist Arthur Lewis' parents were school teachers. When 7-year-old Lewis had to stay at home for several weeks, his father taught him so much that Lewis moved up two grades when he returned to school. Read more about Lewis' life: bit.ly/2HEdRvN

Good news! Our article reviewing metal complexes as COVID-19 antivirals was a #topcitedarticle in ChemBioChem.

Congrats to #Scialog: Microbiome, Neurobiology and Disease Awardee & cifar Azrieli Global Scholar Carolina Tropini Carolina Tropini, PhD, who has been named CIFAR’s inaugural Alan Bernstein Fellow. The appointment recognizes Tropini’s research into how the microbiome impacts human health.

Thanks to Stella and Alysia for representing our lab at graduate student recruitment!

Update on postdoctoral openings - presently, our lab no longer has openings for candidates with MOF training. However, positions in organic/medicinal chemistry and structural biology are still available. Also, applicants with a strong record in polymer synthesis are welcome.

Organic chemistry legend Robert Burns Woodward, awarded the 1965 chemistry prize, worked on organic synthesis. He successfully synthesised many substances such as cholesterol and chlorophyll, the substance that gives leaves their green color. More info: bit.ly/2wdavdv

A late posting from the ACS Meeting in Indianapolis!

We have taken a long hiatus from this platform due to its poor management policies and ethical choices. Waiting for a strong alternative to emerge. In the meantime, did want to post some positive news stories from our laboratory.

Happy belated Halloween. We have a super fun Halloween party with the group and other UCSD Chemistry colleagues.

Congratulations to Stella Seo for winning the Korean American Society in Biotech and Pharmaceuticals (KASBP) MOGAM-KASBP Scholarship! Great to see Stella's awesome accomplishments recognized in this way.

Our laboratory is looking for postdocs. Candidates must have training and a strong publication record in: chemical biology, structural biology, and/or medicinal/organic chemistry.  Experience in the area of targeted protein degradation (TPD) would be of additional value.

Excited to learn that our 2010 ChemComm publication "Isoreticular synthesis and modification of frameworks with the UiO-66 topology" (DOI:10.1039/c0cc02990d) was selected for an online collection highlighting 60 pioneering historic papers from North America. #ChemComm60
