Big news !! Huge congratulations to our PI Guangbin @GuangbinDong for receiving the 2025 Mukaiyama Award!!! Congratulations to Ohmatsu Lab, too. ssocj.jp/en/award/mukai…

Check out new work arxiv.org/abs/2411.07233 by Alexandra, Agnish, Aditya and Cal on generative diffusion but with correlated or ``active" noise.

A thermal neutron and an X-ray photon get into a fight....who's winning 🤠🤠? Read about using neutron versus anomalous X-ray diffraction for occupancy determinations in heterobimetallic clusters in our new paper out in JACS. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

This paper demonstrates for the first time that the molten salt can be a media to synthesize quantum dots. This paper also presents the first luminescent colloidal GaAs quantum dot. Redox chemistry is a powerful tool to achieve this nice materials! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

What's going on between Copper and Carbon 👀👀👀?...read all about it in our newest paper: "C–H Insertion from Isolable Copper Benzylidenes" and congratulations to our graduate student Erika Amemiya on an awesome paper! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Our recent work in automated, single-cell chemoproteomics to profile protein activity signatures in cancer w/ @SavasTay_UChi ‘s lab and colleagues @UChiChemistry @UChicagoPME @UChicagoMed science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Looking for postdoc candidate, who is interested in RNA-protein interactions, RNA localization and gene regulation. Candidates with backgrounds in biophysics (particularly single-molecule imaging), chemical biology and cell biology are all welcome to apply! Please help retweet 🙏

Our latest dinickel catalysis paper is out now in JACS ASAP! See Chris, Chengyi, and Perry’s work on hindered azoarene synthesis through N=N coupling below 🧪 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

The South Side Science Festival, designed to engage the local community and highlight the impact of scientific discovery, brought together more than 4,500 attendees for hands-on experiments, demonstrations and discussions with leading UChicago scientists. ms.spr.ly/6019m0oYZ

Big news! John Jumper, a proud UChicago Chemistry alum, has been awarded the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his pioneering work with AlphaFold 2 and protein structure prediction. His innovative AI models have transformed our understanding of biology and opened new avenues for drug discovery. Read our story to learn all about his path to innovation and excellence -chemistry.uchicago.edu/news/john-jump… @UChicagoPSD @UChicagoPME @UChicagoNews @GoogleDeepMind @NobelPrize @UChicagoBSD

@uchichemistry alum, John Jumper (MS’12, PhD’17), won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry this morning for his pioneering role in developing an AI model that predicts the complex folded structures of proteins. news.uchicago.edu/story/uchicago…

For the second year in a row, a @UChiChemistry alum has won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry! Congratulations to John Jumper (PhD ‘17) on winning the Nobel Prize for developing the AI model AlphaFold, which predicts the structure of proteins. @UChicago @UChicagoNews @UChicagoPSD

The University of Chicago, Chicago State University, and the University of Illinois Chicago received a $4.8 million grant from the NIH BRAIN Initiative to build a faster microscope for mapping all the connections in the brain. biologicalsciences.uchicago.edu/news/three-chi…

Ever controlled a robot using AI? Made ice cream with liquid nitrogen? Seen a live jellyfish up close and personal (without getting stung)? Now’s your chance! @UChicago's free #SouthSideScienceFestival is happening right now. Come on out! southsidescience.event.uchicago.edu

@PrincetonChem @DincaGroup @Princeton @AndlingerCenter @EPrinceton @princetonideas Congrats @DincaGroup! Big news!

We are thrilled to announce that renowned chemist Mircea Dincă @DincaGroup will be joining the faculty @PrincetonChem. Read the announcement: bit.ly/4eLeEWh

Now out in @ChemicalScience, we study design principles for Sc/Lu/ScF chemistry led by @CormacKelderman and Owen Glaser. We explored structure activity relationships for radiochelation with tools ranging from Sc-45 NMR, DFT to radiochemistry and BioD. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

The South Side Science Festival is tomorrow! Interact with @UChicagoBSD, @UChicagoMed, @UChicagoPSD, and @UChicagoPME scientists to learn about exciting fields in #STEM with hands-on demos and info panels. southsidescience.event.uchicago.edu

The Bozhi Tian lab were recently featured on the cover of Nature Sustainability issue on "Sustainable Microfabrication". Read their paper on anew eco-friendly microfabrication method inspired by nature that significantly reduces harmful chemical use and energy consumption - nature.com/articles/s4189… @naturesustainab @nature @UChicagoPME @UChicagoPSD

It’s the final countdown! #SouthSideScienceFestival is *only three days* away! Aspiring scientists and science fans are invited to join @UChicago scientists for a full day of demos, panels, food, and scientific fun. See yourself in science on Oct. 5! bit.ly/3XvB9YP
