@TNTchemprof @JenLoveChem @DrJTsang The photo is from Pigeon Point Beach. We took off from there and made our way to Bon Accord Lagoon, which had the most amazing marine bioluminescence!

@JenLoveChem @DrJTsang @pkennepohl Hope you had a good time. Where in Tobago is that?

Timeline cleanse. From Tobago, May 2023.

@MarkLautens Very glad that you are both doing mostly okay... so sorry that you had to go through that.

This was our Sunday. While out on a walk we were attacked by 4 dogs. 2 came at me, 1 at my wife. We were on the road. Standing still. One of the dogs tore into her leg. Blood everywhere. Great care at the ER, multiple stitches. Thanks to many friends who offered support. 🙏🏼

@Teachforaliving @cesapo Equatorial dachshunds... of course!

I may publish a million papers, but I will never make a better figure than the one my student Allen Moore made for this paper. Link to the paper in the next post.

Interested in exploring new opportunities in the rapidly emerging area of clean energy? @UCalgaryContEd is offering a new program addressing the technical, social, economic and regulatory aspects of clean energy pathways using the subsurface: ow.ly/9PRi50PBvhn

So sad to hear that Jeff Byers, an outstanding scholar and contributor to the science community, passed away. My condolences to his family, friends, colleagues, and students during this very difficult time.

Today, organometallic chemistry suffered the tremendous loss of outstanding teacher, mentor, and scientist Prof. Jeff Byers. But to me, he was a grad school friend who grew into a colleague, collaborator, and conference buddy. His loss will be felt by many for a long time.

@WaterSHEDLab @SamantaWildlife All of it? 😀

#UCalgary researcher Maen Husein is taking on a drug-resistant fungus that has become a big issue for hospitals in the U.S. and Canada. His solution? Painting walls with an environmentally friendly disinfectant: ow.ly/vST950PxLZa

@JenLoveChem The important thing is that we made it across!

Giving the 80 year old in-laws a full BC experience of 75 km of logging road was possibly not the best decision that @pkennepohl and I have ever made. It was epic, though. Especially as they projected their anxiety onto the poor dackel. 🤣😬

@WaterSHEDLab So far, most of the challah had gone to my parents... so I think I'm following the tradition. I'll also make more after my holidays are over and I'll happily share!

First attempt at challah since moving to YYC. Looking forward to trying it.

@MichelleDolgos @SFR_Corp @CanLightSource Time for an impromptu session on LK-99!

@WaterSHEDLab Careful. One of the ones in the bottom left is making a run for it!

@WaterSHEDLab I don't disagree.

@WaterSHEDLab I'd say: Waterton > Jasper > Banff

@LeitchLab @OMCOSBoard I wish I could go!

This is an amazing ride, so @OMCOSBoard #OMCOS #OMCOSXXI attendees should definitely consider it if you're around!

@Vy_Dong_Group @MPWatsonLab @T_K_Shah Where's "abomination" as an option?

Great meeting with @JustinTrudeau to discuss the future of STEM in Canada. Emphasized the need to support graduate student researchers w/ a living wage, ensuring world-class research & talent retention. Let's continue to foster excellence in chem sci community. @CIC_ChemInst
