People who accidentally found their doppelgängers in museums - a thread 🧵

I never knew him but the textbook was always the go to resource when you had any query on citric acid cycle or a refresher on delta G. RIP

Confused by circular dichroism? Our beginner's guide is here to help: doi.org/10.1042/bio_20…

One, two, wait is that THREE hydroxyl groups? On the same carbon atom!!? 🙀💣 Indeed! Researchers have managed to make methanetriol, an "impossible molecule", mimicking interstellar conditions. My latest for Chemistry World, see link in tweet below. #realtimechem #chemtwitter

Despite legal threats, online trolls, and low pay, Elisabeth Bik doesn't regret becoming a scientific sleuth. I caught up with her for Chemistry World: chemistryworld.com/news/legal-thr…

Over 3500 volunteers have transcribed Humphry Davy's notebooks from the archives of Royal Institution, revealing insights into his thoughts, feelings, and unsavoury aspects. Patrick Walter argues that 'the whole picture of the man – flaws and all – should be told.' chemistryworld.com/news/humphry-d…

Not often I listen to BBC Radio 4 docu-dramas as part of my background research when writing a leader, but it was worthwhile in conveying the human impact of the Flixborough Disaster. Would recommend. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

Please RT! Brian Hie and I are hiring joint Arc Institute postdocs to work on ML in biology. Projects include reimagining synthetic gene circuits, mechanistic interpretability, and controllability. Recent work includes genome design with Evo, an AI foundation model trained on DNA

Even the most famous scientists have rough days. Charles Darwin, for example wrote: “But I am very poorly today and very stupid and hate everybody and everything.”

Opportunity to work with InterVenn Biosciences leveraging AI/ML-powered glycoproteomics platform for blood biomarker discovery

Lovely bit of physics. The plates are in a so-called metastable state (low entropy) and need to be nudged over an energy barrier in order to roll down an energy hill to reach equilibrium (high entropy).

Rise and Fall of Oasis, simply an amazing music docu with knowledgeable presenters (Whiley & Lamacq) who were there and unrivalled access to the squabbling brothers at the heart of one of the 90s greatest bands. Amazing opener. For those that were there! bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

You’ve probably heard of semaglutide, or its tradename Ozempic. But what you might not be familiar with are the difficulties in making the peptides themselves. chemistryworld.com/features/the-g…

A ban on most uses of DCM was finalised by the US EPA in May 2024, with consumer use of DCM to be phased out within 1 year and most industrial uses within 2. With the Trump administration seeming poised to continue the plan, labs are bracing for change. chemistryworld.com/news/a-year-on…
