Congratulations Joseph Moran and David Leboeuf

I'm trying to compile a list of online resources (apps, webpages, social media accounts) for students taking chem. Examples: phone apps - chairs, chem-calculator, chirality, chemistry by design; webpages - RS chemistry, BACON (thanks to Garg Lab UCLA); social media - zoomorgo, etc.

Peri-pentacence and peri-hexacene finally done! They were on my research proposal for a faculty position 18 years ago. The hero is Zou Ya@gaga, who also tamed the beast 'circumcoronene'. Paper is now J. Am. Chem. Soc.: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Thrilled to announce that I will be starting my independent career at Chemistry at Illinois this fall. The Strauss Group (Strauss Research Group) will work at the interface of synthetic methods development and polymer science to uncover new strategies in polymer design and functionalization.


Thrilled to share that I will be joining Penn State Chemistry as an Assist. Professor this Summer! science.psu.edu/chem/people/yb… I’m grateful for the support from Chris Kozak, PhD 🫐👨🔬🇵🇱🇨🇦, Bruce Arndtsen, and Hyster groups and from friends and family—thank you all!
