Move over titin... introducing PKZILLA as the largest protein in life that makes one the largest nonpolymeric compounds in biology, the marine polyether toxin prymnesin. Congrats to Tim Fallon, PhD @[email protected] & Vikram Shende and rest of team! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Congratulations to all our 2024 Purdue Science Faculty and Staff honorees including executive assistant Jackie Butram! Here are the other honorees in Chemistry and the college: purdue.edu/science/about/…



Betsy Parkinson, assist. professor at Purdue Chemistry, was stunned to learn that she was one of the recipients of Purdue's Exceptional Early Career Teaching Award. The announcement took place during a faculty meeting. #PurdueUniversity #Boilermaker #Science #Chemistry #Teaching

Congrats Professor Li The Li Group for this award recognizing outstanding faculty members who are on an accelerated path of academic distinction!


Our paper on the nanoRAPIDS platform is out in Communications Chemistry. The analytical pipeline nanofractionates 10 ul complex culture extract into 384 wells and then determines high-res mass and bioactivity of all peaks. doi.org/10.1038/s42004…
