Sarah Briceño turns Ecuador’s natural resources into nanomaterials
This Venezuelan expat transforms farm waste and sea algae into tools for materials science and drug delivery.
An old paper, but a beautiful one that deserves some love because it's such a creative way to turn a basic concept in conformational analysis into a fluorescent sensor.
It's also a great example for teaching :-) #ChemSky
Women chemists studying public health and disease development were among those recognized at #ACSFall2026.

Nature's most elusive cysteine intermediate just took off its mask.
Researchers in the Myers Lab at the University of Galway and the Fascione and Spicer Groups at the University of York, published in Angew. Chem., generate cysteine thioaldehydes cleanly in water. See where they go next ↓ #ChemSky
Northeastern University is hiring:
Postdoctoral Research Associate in Machine Learning and Organic Chemistry
Just ran into some really funny-lookin' oxygens in peer-reviewed literature. Not even AI slop, just plain old incompetence.
And yes, it graces someone's CV.
