Long weekend in #Ontario, so made the most of some extra time outdoors. Saw many things, including this green heron, killdeer, a hummingbird clearwing moth, and Caspian tern. #KWAwesome #WildlifePhotography

Following on from a conversation at #MOF2024 (maybe with Valeska Ting & Grace), I thought I'd post about Edith Flanigen. Now 95, she worked at Union Carbide (later UOP) & was a pioneer in the field of zeolites, holding over 100 patents. 1/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edith_M._…

Greeted this morning by a brass band that I swear was singing about the banks of the Sacramento, or maybe that was the jet lag speaking? #SRI2024

The team is looking forward to meeting everyone at ECM34. In addition to the new PhotonJetMAX we are offering live demonstrations of the Synergy-ED.

The next time Europeans tell me they don't have racism like the US, I'm gonna think back to today when the Europeans in front of me were making snide comments about a speaker's accent.

A scientist never checks out of their conference hotel late, nor are they ever early, they check out precisely when they mean to.

My first corresponding, two-author paper, at Chemical Science 😁 X-ray structures of porphyrin nanorings. They’re more flexible than you think! We Harry Anderson Group report 3 pseudopolymorphs and a fullerene cocrystal. Look at this nice packing! (1/3) pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

I am once again asking government agencies, advisory committees, reviewers to consider why we need to use the word "thrust" when "topic area," "subject matter," and "focus" are right there. They're right there, and they're not cringe. Please.

Feels like an eternity ago. Now as I prepare to jump from this sinking ship, I look around and see hollowness and grift where world-changing interconnection used to exist. Fuck you Elon Musk. #MyXAnniversary

“Yes the hour is dark, evil comes forth in the guise of good. It is a time of double talk when men in high places have a high blood pressure of deceptive rhetoric and an anemia of concrete performance.” 1/2
