One of these things are not like the others....we shall see who is laughing in a few weeks! @DrHelliwell @OrganicBhoy
Does anyone have any recommendations for stylus/tablet or digital pens for annotating lecture notes (live) that are then able to be converted to an accessible pdf later on? Thinking ahead to next year! @InChemEducation @A11yAwareness @RoySocChem #ChemEd
Wonderful work by @kelechi_uleanya! A Resource to Support Decolonization of the Undergraduate Chemistry Curriculum out now in the Journal of Chemical Education. @CarolineDessent @leoniecjones @ChemistryatYork #kgatoselwe #ameliamilner pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
NMR, my old friend! It has been a little (long!) while since I've run some samples! #evansnmr

Our latest research paper is a collaboration with my good friend Peter O'Brien. He works with highly reactive organolithiums - we thought gels might make them safer & simpler to handle. They did! Even if we dropped one in water, the reaction still worked.

Out in @J_A_C_S with S. Duckett: @MatthewGyton's paper on SMOM catalysts for RT gas-phase p-H2 addition to alkenes & alkenes. Efficient polarisation = single-scan gas-phase 13C-spectra in ~0.7sec, while even H2 from a normal cylinder gives a PHIP response! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…

Extremely proud of this one. First foray into hyperpolarisation that let us do some really cool science with NMR across solid, liquid and gas

@arc_gov_au @nhmrc +politicans please take note: @CarolynBertozzi work in the early 2000's for which she received the 2022 Nobel Prize is being implemented in medical research across the world and is products in clinical trials. But it builds all on curiosity driven research! 1/3 – at Bowral - Mittagong, New South Wales

We have a fully funded PhD project in my group (UK nationals only) on looking at new hydromethylation catalysis (methane activation) - using our organometallic single crystal approach. This is a co-funded project with SHV energy. Start date Oct 2023. findaphd.com/phds/project/si…

I've been editing video recordings of myself the last couple of weeks & I've noticed I speak very quickly, making it hard to hear the sentences at times (which makes me feel for the students!). Does anyone have any advice or techniques they use to slow themselves down? #ChemEd
As a new academic year starts, I must thank my wonderful summer interns, Amelia and Khyati who did some amazing work @ChemistryatYork over a 6 week period with myself and @leoniecjones.

Thanks to Rajat Sharma, Ruhee Dawood (@ruheedawood4) Kgato Selwe and Athina Ruangkatin, Katherine Manfred and @kelechi_uleanya for all their help!
