In lecture today, we discussed the Catellani reaction - one of the few reactions named after a woman. I thought the timing was perfect for #IWD! Credit to @WIC_Toronto for the image and bio!

Staying focused: The Female Organic Chemists in University Settings (FOCUS) website continues to grow as a resource @FemOrgChem. Please check it out: fal.cn/3i1Oo. BTW, a WSJ article notes that women now make up about 60% of U.S. college students, and growing. @JOC_OL

Nice write up about our alum Miriam Bowring who received her Ph.D. at the College. We are very proud of our alums and the work they choose to do once they leave 🙌🙌🙌 @Reed_College_ @UCBerkeley
