Eric and other members of the Angewandte Chemie International Advisory Board have resigned their positions on the Board.

1/3 The most pervasive toxic behavior in science (and especially theory) is posing: pretending at deep or extensive understanding, or that difficult things are "obvious" or "trivial" for you, or that you have understand something for a long time that others are just learning.

Wilson’s racism was significant and consequential even by the standards of his own time, taking America backward in its pursuit of justice. He not only acquiesced in but added to the persistent practice of racism in this country, a practice that continues to do harm today.

How it started: AUG How it’s going: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Excited to share that I am now Assistant Professor of Pharmacology at Weill Cornell Medicine! The Geri Lab is recruiting, so let me know if you would be interested in working with me on developing new tools in chemical biology! pharmacology.weill.cornell.edu/about-us/news/…

Congratulations to David MacMillan and Ben List, as well as to all members of MacMillan Group and AK List!!! Absolutely amazing time to be organic chemists #chemnobel #nobelprize2021

We are actively recruiting a postdoc interested in working on developing new chemical biology tools for protein interaction discovery. If interested, please email me at [email protected]! gerilab.weill.cornell.edu/team

We're hiring! We have several postdoc positions open for chemical biology research and proximity labeling in the MacMillan Lab. Experience in cell biology, biochemistry, molecular genetics, immunology, or related fields desired. DM us with your info and a CV/cover letter!

In J. Am. Chem. Soc., we report a platform for red-light photoproximity labeling as we move toward in vivo applications. Congrats to Benito F Buksh, Steve Knutson, James Oakley, @CiaranSeath, collaborators from the Scholes Lab and Alexander Ploss, & the whole team! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

In Science Magazine, we report an approach to expedite reaction generality. Using an additive mapping approach, we substantially expand the scope of a nickel-photoredox system. Congrats Cesar Nicolas, Jacob, and our Merck collaborators! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

💡 One of the most read articles in the last 30 days: μMap-Red: Proximity Labeling by Red Light Photocatalysis by Benito F Buksh Steve Knutson James Oakley @CiaranSeath Scholes Lab Alexander Ploss & coworkers MacMillan Group go.acs.org/15e

Great week at chem bio summer camp (bioorganic chemistry Gordon Research Conferences) with MacMillan Group pals @CiaranSeath and Benito F Buksh full of juicy science, ice cream, volleyball and ghost stories. Can't wait for next year

In PNAS, we report the use of super-resolution microscopy to measure the labeling radii of µmap and other proximity labeling technologies. Congrats to James Oakley, Benito F Buksh, David Fer, @CiaranSeath Jacob Geri and the entire team! pnas.org/doi/epdf/10.10…

Just out in PNAS! We report the application of µMap to identify protein targets of small molecule drugs. Both intra- and extracellular targets are demonstrated herein. Great work to the entire team! pnas.org/doi/epdf/10.10…

Check out this preprint on cubanes. Using a convenient approach to cyclobutadiene and copper photoredox catalysis, we are able to access bioisosteres of ortho-, meta-, and para-substituted benzenes for Med. Chem.   chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi…

Just found out the final piece of my PhD work has been published in J. Am. Chem. Soc. I am so grateful to everyone involved in this project, especially my advisor Prof Guangbin Dong, without whom it would not have been possible for me to accomplish this work. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Waiting for Rings of Power season 2 TheRingsOfPower? Forge your own rings, not in Mount Doom, but with our method for the alkyl-alkyl cross-coupling of alcohols and bromides! Now out in J. Am. Chem. Soc.. Congrats Will! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…
