A pleasure to write this #firstreactions article for ACS Central Science on a fantastic piece of work from the The Hartwig Group! Elegant strategies for C–H functionalisation and diverse transformations of complex terpenoid natural products. doi.org/10.1021/acscen…

We're recruiting a postdoc in organic chemistry (36 months) to work on a new antibiotic discovery project in collaboration with Fundación MEDINA Come join us in our new lab QUB - Chemistry & Chemical Engineering Please repost! hrwebapp.qub.ac.uk/tlive_webrecru…

Congrats Robbie Shepherd on passing the qualifying exam! Shout out to Rubin Lab Shaun McKinnie Elizabeth Neumann as amazing committee members!

We're looking for a new Assistant Professor in Marine Natural Products/Marine Biotechnology Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Come join us - apol-recruit.ucsd.edu/JPF04101

New work from Michael Fischbach lab! It was such an honor to work with the insanely talented Djenet Bousbaine and so fun to see it all come together here!

Amazing seminar from Aaron Puri today who shared his lab’s work on microbial chemical ecology, natural product chemistry, biosynthesis, and cool new analytical techniques! Thanks for making the trip out to UC Santa Cruz Science!

In a year with so little to cheer about so far, I am happy to share our manuscript on a copper-dependent halogenase. Unbelievable effort by GS Yorick Chiang and Scientist Ph.D Masao Ohashi at UCLA Chem & Biochem UCLA Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering . Thank you to all collaborators and @NIGMS. nature.com/articles/s4158…

I got a sneak peek of this awesome story in Dec. 2023 by being on Dr. Manasa Ramachandra’s excellent PhD defense committee! And was so impressed that we had to recruit her as a postdoc for our own oxidative cyclase projects! Huge congratulations Manasa, Ross Group @ Queen’s and team!

Better late than never, loved hosting @MooreLab UC Santa Cruz Science we enjoyed a nice hike before this rain curtesy of Shaun McKinnie #workhusbands #peptides

What is responsible for the halogen specificity & is there a Substrate binding Site in #VHPOs? Learn more about this amazing enzyme class in our latest paper Nature Communications! Congratulations to the Team! nature.com/articles/s4146…

Check out our new review we wrote with Shaun McKinnie Robbie Shepherd looking at the interface of MS for screening large mutant libraries like those associated with #directedevolution pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

It was such a pleasure to celebrate today our wonderful colleague, Chekan Lab 🧪 Jon is an exceptional scholar and educator, and it was so great to hear about his life and career journey! We are lucky to have him at Chem + Biochem UNCG, UNCG College of Arts & Sciences, UNCG! 👏🤩

Thrilled to share our discovery of a novel polyene macrolide antifungal with a unique mechanism of action—targeting fungal membrane phospholipids. Grateful for the collaboration with Prof. Zongqiang Wang’s team at CPU. Check out our paper in nature: nature.com/articles/s4158…

We’re living through pretty unusual times, but we’re excited to share good news! Our CRISPRa-programmed #embryo model paper is out! Thanks to our amazing group Gerrald Lodewijk Sayaka Kozuki and collaborators. I hope the community finds this model useful for new discoveries #CRISPR

Our lab at FSU in sunny Florida is looking to hire a fully funded postdoc position in natural products discovery and/or biosynthesis in Actinobacteria! We utilize new strategies and modern synthetic biology tools to unlock new chemistry and molecules. kalkreuterlab.com

Huge congrats to Dr. Jackson Baumgartner for completing his PhD dissertation seminar! Jackson was an inaugural lab member and has done a phenomenal job exploring VHPO enzymology! Incredibly proud of all your achievements Dr. Baumgartner - thanks for being PhD #1 from the lab!
