in the Pipeline: Huge Molecules, Hitching a Ride Into Cells

(Since Derek Lowe is not on Mastodon (yet?) I'll start posting his blogposts here)
I'm a chemistry professor at UC Irvine that specializes in inorganic chem and electrochem.
My research focuses on #electrification of the chemical industry, #decarbonization, #carboncapture, and #sustainability. Current projects on electrochemical carbon capture and utilization, but also electric fields in #catalysis and #bioinsipred systems.
I'm an #academicmom that loves cooking, running, cycling, hiking, ultimate frisbee, and ice hockey but never has enough time.
I guess I should do an #introduction …
I manage research on fundamental #cancer #metabolism for that big agency in Maryland in the USA. For a kid who was a model UN nerd, caught Potomac Fever on a school trip at 18, and went on to do a PhD on transcriptional regulation of genes that control cell growth and cell cycle progression, it’s a dream job, combining the science I love best with policy. 1/
Great piece by the very talented
Claire O'Connell out on The Irish Times @irishtimes celebrating the #ChemNobel to #ClickChemistry and #BioOrthogonalChemistry with some enthusiastic feedback from me and Andrew Kellet
@bertozzi I hope you'll like it 😊👏👏👏

Let's get this party started #LXChemRollCall👩🏽🔬👨🔬🌎😎!
I'm an Organic chemist 👩🏽🔬🇲🇽. I'm interested in the design of sustainable transformations using photocatalysis. I love spending time with my family (👭🐶🏳️🌈) and friends(🍷🍻☕️).

“Hey @LatinXChem community! I'm Gustavo Mondragón, a 🇲🇽 Ph. D. student on its final steps passionate in #compchem, specifically in photochemistry and photophysics. I like Mountain Biking and exotic pets😁 (fun fact, I hate apples) Go @panchajaviera @KAELMEUR @joaquinbarroso !”
This is from Scientific American, earlier this month.
What looks likely to have happened in CO (being cautious bc I don't want to get ahead of the facts) is stochastic terrorism. This was predicted. It was inevitable. We have been screaming about this, in the LGBTQ+ community, and this is likely far from end, we'll see more and more, because the anti-trans rhetoric was always leading to this.
