Congratulations Sofia for giving a fantastic poster presentation at the 2025 Koret UC LEADS Research and Leadership Symposium! We enjoyed hearing about your biochemical approach for tuning the redox potential of Ni-substituted Rubredoxin, a mimic for [NiFe] hydrogenase!

What an exciting full-circle moment! A fantastic opportunity to host the Manesis Lab visit to collect resonance Raman and hear the latest research updates from their grad student (and former undergrad) Riley. To top it off, a special lab outing with delicious food in Los Angeles!

Big shoutout to the team who rocked the Willow Community School Science Fair this weekend! We had so much fun making ā€˜oobleck’ to show off non-Newtonian fluids and letting kids get creative with pH indicator art. Nothing better than sparking curiosity!

Congrats, Josephine and the team!! Check out our newest mechanistic deep dive into R2lox: Isotope labeling and EPR spectroscopy reveal that this Mn/Fe enzyme activates C–H bonds to form a unique Tyr–Val crosslink via a Mn⁓⁺/Fe⁓⁺ intermediate. bit.ly/3Fkybjw
