It’s neat to see how having students apply their knowledge through a different context/medium reveals underlying process thinking.

A cool story about students learning to think about chemical reactions #chemchat might like

I spend few hours (it was not in my plans) today helping a researched with one a bit tricky measurement in order to reply to a Reviewer 2.

Oups, seems that the Reviewer 2 was right...

Found this rather peculiar alcohol while browsing through reaxys! #ChemSky #ChemChat

I just found this in a cupboard…2006 apparently. #chemchat

lolololol #chemchat

An interesting thing about collaboration with folk from different fields is learning the things that are totally normal in their field, but are baffling to me. A great example is that many insect pheromone lures are sold commercially as rubber septa. #ChemChat

Meanwhile over on Instagram…..I think I struggle to fit in. #chemchat

You don’t need permission to post to ChemSky, just use the tag and maybe pop over for some less formal #chemchat too!

With the sh!++y administration discouraging grad students/post docs from other countries, does this open up post doc positions for old fogies like me? Or does reduction of funding of science in general just offset that? 🧪 #chemsky #chemchat

Hmm, why this Et₂O is not fitting well? And why there are hydrogens on the oxygen?

Trust chemists, they say...

I have amazing research collaborators. I'm an inorganic chemist, but some of my best work is with ORGANIC chemists. They always synthesize an entire series at once.

"Hey, Henrique, here are compounds 9a–9l. Can you do the photophysics, electronic properties, etc.?"

Yay! (I guess…)

TFW a friend invites you to speak at a conference but you can’t go and then you see the publicity poster and - crap I can’t believe I’m gonna miss that…look at that speaker list

So, rich people, who used it in real life?

With prices of computers hardware doing in interesting directions, I will probably keep it...

I spent houuuurrrrsssss, to find that the trend was there is no particular trend #science #chemchat 🧪

For any youngsters who don’t know this. A classic. His memory and enunciation are amazing. 🧪 #chemsky #chemchat

I don't have stats on this, but I feel like I'm finally starting to see more #UKchemjobs in the pharma/CxO sphere pop up in the past few weeks/months. Anyone agree? I can't tell for real because my bubble will be very statistically noisy #chemjobs #chemchat
