We are delighted to report the chemoenzymatic total synthesis of (–)-13-deoxytetrodecamycin which features a biocatalytic intramolecular [4 + 2]-cycloaddition catalysed by Diels-Alderase TedJ. pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Art… Have a read in @ChemicalScience !

Congratulations to everyone who graduated @BristolChem this week but a particular congratulations to our two PhD alumni @harcourt_josie and @KaimanCheung and our four MSci students Alex, Ayden, Ollie and Rhiannon!! 🥂🎉⚗️🧪🎉🥂

Big congratulations are in order for our newly Dr @KaimanCheung who successfully defended his thesis today titled ‘A Multidisciplinary Approach to Exploit Diels-Alderases in Synthesis’. Well done Kaiman! 🧪🧬⚗️🥼📚

@BCS_CDT and @ClaydenGroup student and one of my great friends and housemate Olivia is on Uni Challenge later representing Bristol! Really excited, give it a watch

We are delighted to present our collaborative investigation of the divergent selectivity of the Diels-Alderases AbyU and AbmU, and their applicability in diastereo- and enantiocontrolled synthesis in our latest work. Have a read in @ChemicalScience ! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

Colourful ideas! Our final year PhD student @KaimanCheung is presenting his poster at the @BCS_CDT summer conference on his multidisciplinary approach to exploit Diels-Alderases in synthesis 🧪

In highly interdisciplinary work combining synthesis and computation with structural biology and kinetic studies, we describe the complete reaction cycle of Diels-Alderase AbyU. Check out our work, out now in @ChemicalScience ! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

The hot weather over the last week called for a group picnic 🧺 out in UoB’s lovely Royal Fort Gardens!

Would highly recommend life in the Willis group! A great position for anyone interested in biocatalysis and Diels-Alderases!

Day 8 of our advent calendar and we're remembering when Josie, Kaiman, Joe and Felix attended #Grasmere! They had a fantastic time hiking, drinking and wearing snazzy attire! Thanks to @ADS_StAndrews and the RSC Heterocyclic and Synthesis group for organising! #lakedistrict ⛰️💪

Had a great time at the conference today! Was very thought-provoking to hear about the advances being made across industry and academia towards smarter chemistry #data

Did a small-ish scale recrystallisation yesterday - modern alchemy sometimes still involves yellow liquids.. 🧪⚗️ #RealTimeChem

Our 2020 cohort just finished a week-long entrepreneurship training course where they even presented a funding pitch to a solicitor, great work team! #TECS #skills #spinup thanks to @iamdrbenmiles @spinup_science for the training and support 🧪

Working up what was meant to be a very peachy reaction 🍑 but the yield soured my mood 🍋 #realtimechem #ladygaga

Oppenheimer when he came up with the idea for the bomb vs. when he realised its destructive potential

Kaiman has cast a spell over the audience in LT2 with his Diels-Alderase masterclass! #BigCheungus #ottoandkurt

And that's the end of Day 1, and we've assembled all the TECS cohorts on Indecision (Cantock's) Steps, ft. @sbumbatha, @KristinaClare22 and @JonathanClayden. Well done today everyone, looking forward to the presentations from Cohort 2020 tomorrow! #beeroclock

Me after I fumble around for an hour with bash and submission scripts to automate something that I could do manually in 5 minutes #compchem
