Replying to @Trinity_U
@Trinity_U has one of the highest success rates in our Welch Foundation Research Grants program. A common misconception is that the Foundation only funds research at large R1 institutions, but Trinity continues to demonstrate that outstanding science happens everywhere. Professors Christina Cooley @CCooleyChem, Rebecca Rapf and Aaron Harrison @AaronWHarrison's success highlights the strength of innovative research at smaller PUIs and R2 universities alike.

Just noting that Kamala Harris's mother, Shyamala Gopalan, was a terrific scientist. Grad school at 19, PhD Berkeley at 25 in 1964! Here, she is first and corresponding author on an excellent and highly cited PNAS based on an NIH grant with her as PI. jstor.org/stable/44171

Some think of the replicator and the transporter as 2 separate inventions. But the transporter is just a replicator that produces a new person + a phaser to vaporize the original. (And you don't really need a phaser--you could just kill the original with an axe.) #MurderMachine

UT fired my friend & former colleague Rich Heyman for being arrested on a bullshit charge of brandishing a water bottle at a state trooper in riot gear & damaging his 'state-issued bike bell' Rich taught at UT for 17 yrs. More disgraceful shit by UT admin statesman.com/story/news/cri…

Ever wonder what’s in a tattoo ink? Turns out lots of things that shouldn’t be there. Our latest in @an_chem finds that 90% of the tattoo inks we looked at had major discrepancies with the listed ingredients!!! 1/n pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
