Following a successful total synthesis, new interdisciplinary project is going well so far! Baby Adelina joined our family this weekend and we are very in love - and very sleep deprived. ❤️

Gagan developed a library of biocompatible ionic liquids for nanoparticle coatings based on Good's buffers and found some interesting impacts on cellular uptake!
Good's buffer based highly biocompatible ionic liquid modified PLGA nanoparticles for the selective uptake in cancer cells - now published in Materials Chemistry Frontiers pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

Congrats, @edgecomb_sara! Here we explore the role electrostatics and h-bonding play in ionic liquid coatings on polymeric nanoparticles. Spoiler alert: both are important but to differing degrees depending on the chemistry of the polymer!

A new PhD started today. She asked for general advice for the first few months. This was my advice: 1. Don’t work evenings or weekends 2. Don’t aim to prove yourself (to me), I’m already convinced of your capacities 3. Go for a walk when things dazzle you (1/3)

What an experience! I’m so grateful to @Merck and @AcsWcc for selecting me out of so many amazing applicants to be sponsored to speak today at #ACSFall2023 . Especially grateful for my Merck mentor @StephGBarrett for all her constant support , and to my PI @EdenTanner always
I conquered a difficult week with a fresh blood transfusion and I am on my way to SF!! Come to my talk tomorrow 10:45 AM at the WCC-Merck Session #ACSFall2023 to see what me and my labmate @edgecomb_sara been cooking in the IL-polymer NP assembly kitchen 🙌

Mercedes is on a well deserved vacation but I didn’t want her to miss out on the #BlackInChem roll call!! She’s one of the most naturally talented scientists I’ve ever met, a superstar mentor, and is crushing her PhD in Chemistry @chemistry_um @Mercedeschermya
So proud of @Mercedeschermya navigating synthetic challenges in making some new ILs this summer. She’s sharing her work this morning in our @NSF REU program symposium. @chemistry_um

When our trainees get ready to leave the lab to start their independent academic journey, they often ask me for advice on how to advise students. I tell them that the following four principles have guided me in my own advising journey @hseas @wyssinstitute
