‘If I can mimic them with a superatom made of earth-abundant elements, I have found a way to circumvent the chemistry of the periodic table to eliminate some of the properties that are undesirable,’ says Puru Jena. #ChemSky www.chemistryworld.com/features/sup...
Superatoms offer new dimension to materials chemistry palette
Could atomically precise nanoclusters mimic the chemistry of particular atoms without their toxic or cost drawbacks? James Mitchell Crow reports on the emerging third dimension of the periodic table

Great end to the spring seminar series at SMU Chemistry… thanks to Dr. Timmy Ramirez-Cuesta from @ORNL and Prof. Tanei Ricks for delivering excellent lectures
After a wonderful seminar by Prof. @WenyangGao … mechanochemistry truly is super cool!
It was great to host our department alum Jerry Parks from ORNL.. many thanks again for visiting and delivering an amazing lecture
Many thanks to @tomkempa.bsky.social for hosting me at JHU last Tuesday..it was so much fun learning about all the cool research going on at the Chemistry department.. #soinspiring
Today, my mom asked me if I ever considered publishing in Science Magazine to reach a broader audience... Thanks, Mom. #oceanography 🌊🤦♀️🙄
It is always a nice evening when a bunch of chemists get together.. thanks Prof Nathan Gianneschi for visiting us @SMU and delivering such an inspiring lecture..it was also great catching up with @ronsmaldone.bsky.social after a long time..
It was amazing to have Prof. Francois Gabbai deliver such an inspiring Ed Biehl lecture at SMU..
#chemchat #chemsky I need your recommendation for a very high boiling point solvent that can be used at 300C. Ph2O is not high enough (it goes to around 250C). Cannot be protic, cannot have amines. It doesn't need to be a liquid at room temp. Ideas? Cc @adrianlorenzana.ca
Why shouldn't you trust someone you see drawing on graph paper? They're definitely plotting something.
I'm gonna keep bumping this because it's gonna take the kindness of strangers to get the support he needs

Well, well... who wants to be cited at the beginning of one of my papers next year? #NobelPrize
Stefano Canossa@stecanossa.bsky.social · 11mo agoMy tutorial review on single crystal diffraction analysis is now online @crystengcomm.rsc.org! Students, supervisors, and reviewers: Please consider this thought-provoking read to discover many facets of the crystallographic practice that are often overlooked or misunderstood 💎 #crystallography
Late post but ISMPC was easily favorite conference of this year :)
Thanks to TWU Chemistry for hosting me today.. I had a fantastic time.. it was great to learn about the exciting research going on in the Chem Dept ..
Gosh no, I don’t need AI to summarize my emails!!
UCLA Health ended an NDM-1 Pseudomonas aeruginosa outbreak by tracing it to an ICU sink biofilm via whole-genome sequencing, then eliminating it with targeted disinfection, plumbing changes, and staff education—showcasing the power of diverse IPC measures. #AMR www.newswise.com/articles/the...
These Techniques Stopped the Outbreak of an Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria in a SoCal Hospital | Newswise
Researchers detected Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a common hospital-acquired bacterium, often found in moist environments. But this strain carried a gene called New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM-1), an en...
