Great fun talking to @RupertProctor and @ThailaZucchi. It feels like shooting @wolfmanorfilm was like one big happy family. Congrats @dominicbrunt! You’re a legend! Interview: buff.ly/3CK8m8h Available on VOD & DVD. Distributed by @lightbulb_films #wolfmanor

lol who did this

Russia was a cheerleader for Brexit and has funded and supported all those who delivered it. They want a weak & divided Europe. Now you see why. #Ukraine

ACORN Chemical Biology of Carbon Monoxide Symposium just started. An exciting event that will join expert seminars with IMM Researchers training. @gbernardes_chem @IMMolecular @ChemCambridge

Asymmetric organocatalysis existed long before the 1990s (e.g. Hajos-Parrish reaction) and there was then key early work from Denmark, Jacobsen, Corey, Miller etc. But the Nobel goes to those who conceptualised & built the field - List & McMillan. nature.com/articles/natur…

Now out in @J_A_C_S, we disclose the latest advance in our photocatalytic hydroaminoalkylation methodology: a highly modular alpha-tertiary amine synthesis via imine redox-relay.💡Congrats to @jhenryb62, @GeorgiaRitzema and @miloasmith 🎉 pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102…

A #radical new method for #regioselectiveamination just published in @J_A_C_S. Huge congrats to James, Charlotte and Robert for this amazing work 🥳 @ChemCambridge Regioselective Radical Arene Amination for the Concise Synthesis of ortho-Phenylenediamines pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Incredible talk from @BBernardim today on her research journey across chemistry. So proud 👏🏽👏🏽🥳🥳💪🏽💪🏽

So good to have this out finally! Take a look at the new asymmetric Minisci reaction using hydrogen atom transfer from amides. Huge thanks and congrats to @AveneColgan, Padon and Robert @ChemCambridge

Cooperative Copper-Squaramide Catalysis for the Enantioselective N-H Insertion Reaction with Sulfoxonium Ylides - now published in Chemical Science pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art… Very happy! Celebrating our just published paper on the chemistry of sulfoxonium ylides.

That we were worried about this verdict shows how far there is to go. #RestInPower #GeorgeFloyd

Reminder to all journalists... This is how Minneapolis initially reported the death of #GeorgeFloyd

George Floyd's killer has been convicted on all three counts. #Guilty. While there can never be a perfect level of Justice given in response to Big Floyd's life being taken, I hope his family finds some form of peace in this verdict. #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd #GeorgeFloyd

#GeorgeFloyd should still be alive. Justice has been served in this case but there is more work to be done. Liberation for Black lives mean liberation for us all. We must continue to lean into the discomfort of dismantling white supremacy and rebuilding communities of care.
