Call me Dr. Lachance-Brais !! 🎉 Thank you Hanadi Sleiman for this wonderful and fulfilling experience in your lab, and to all those I shared beautiful moments in it! Also special thanks to McGill Chem Outreach for providing some fire and ice (cream) for the party!

Check out our new method to shield nucleic acid drugs from degradation! Cyanuric acid transforms DNA/RNA into nuclease-resistant structures, boosting their serum lifetime to a month! Congrats Dr. Christophe Lachance-Brais Sally Yao, Jath Asohan, all authors! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

We were very surprised by the ability of DNA/RNA to resist nucleases when mixed with the small-molecule cyanuric acid! If you are looking to protect your nucleic acid, give a try to this cheap and easy option!

ChatGPT4o would call itself "Nova" if it could. It suits it well I think. #ChatGPT4o

When my wife's father died of COVID, she set out to accelerate the modelling of the disease and of what drugs could cure it by making lung organoids. After her patent, and a biologist's patience, the work is finally public. I'm so proud of her ❤️ tinyurl.com/2fz5mahz

They are making Spiderman!! Check out their videos, you won't be disappointed! Dynamic Adhesive Fibers for Remote Capturing of Objects - Presti - Advanced Functional Materials - Wiley Online Library onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ad…

This is so completely and utterly an abuse of presidential power! The irony is only amplified after spending years warning of the abuses Trump would do with the power to pardon! bbc.com/news/articles/…

Publishers have always made money through our work, but selling it for millions to train #AI seems different. Will scientists get access to these new tools, or will we have to pay to publish, pay to read and pay to use the AIs? nature.com/articles/d4158…

We are deeply saddened by the loss of Fraser. A great friend, colleague, and amazing scientist, he will be dearly missed. It is hard to believe that he is no longer among us. So energetic and always there for the chemical community, especially encouraging young scientists.

It is with great sadness that I learn of the passing of Sir Fraser Stoddart Fraser Stoddart . Despite his incredible scientific achievements, he was one of the most approachable scientists I have met, always making time to talk to young students like myself. Rest in peace.
