The new web interface of @acs.org publications is agonizing. TOCs missing from ASAPs/misplaced in issues, terrible URLs, and reading that’s now painful on both mobile and desktop. If page views and readership matter to ACS, this is an emergency. I hope ACS leadership is listening.

I'm thrilled to share that this January, I'll be joining @utaustinchemistry.bsky.social as an Assistant Professor! Dreams really do come true, you just have to keep showing up for them. Hook 'em horns 🤘 🧵👇
Excited to share our latest @nature.com: How does naloxone (Narcan) stop an opioid overdose? We determined the first GDP-bound μ-opioid receptor–G protein structures and found naloxone traps a novel "latent” state, preventing GDP release and G protein activation.💊🧪 🧵👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
@dmeremin.bsky.social Absolutely crushed it with this automated workflow! It ain’t about the size of your crystals, nor the way that they look, that matters…it’s all about how they diffract! Cheers to the whole team!
🚨Hot off the press @jacs.acspublications.org! Your TEM can now solve crystal structures on its own. Small molecules, materials, proteins—all with one platform: REyes, the first end-to-end autonomous electron diffraction suite doi.org/10.1021/jacs... @caltechcce.bsky.social @uclacb.bsky.social

🚨Hot @J_A_C_S : Alkyl triflate hydrolysis at air-water interface defies pH extremes 1-13 with an unchanged rate. Diluting water with glycol slows it further. Stay tuned for our collaboration with @jahandawlaty.bsky.social exploring interfacial chemistry doi.org/10.1021/jacs... #ChemSky
Hydrolysis Kinetics at the Air–Water Interface
Reactions at aqueous interfaces are significant in many disciplines and have recently been implicated in explaining the unique chemistry occurring in aqueous microdroplets. However, understanding the ...

Had a pleasure introducing REyes, a fully autonomous, open-source electron diffraction suite at #ACSFall2025. Many thanks to the organizers @olexandr.bsky.social and #CASFutureLeaders for the opportunity #ReciprocalEyes #chrmsky @caltechcce.bsky.social @hoseanelson.bsky.social @nsf-ccas.bsky.social
Start your morning off with a presentation by @dmeremin.bsky.social today at 8:40 AM! More information: acs.digitellinc.com/live/35/sess... #ccas #nsf #chemistry #computerscience #chemsky #ACS
Congratulations, @omarfarha.bsky.social, on your 2025 Inorganic Nanoscience Award! An outstanding achievement and a memorable symposium #chemsky
Still have goosebumps from meeting Dick Schrock at #ACSFall2025! Back in grad school I explored metal-carbene complexes and at every exam or review I was always asked, “Is it a Schrock or Fischer carbene?” Thank you, Dick, for shaping and inspiring so many of us
It's Tuesday morning at #ACSFall2025, and I'd like to thank @redbull.com for sponsoring my daily energy boost
#ACSFall2025 is in full swing. A huge shoutout to @bagphos.bsky.social, Program Chair @organicdivision.org, for putting together the program
#ACSFall2025 hasn't started yet, but chemists are flooding DC streets already. Great to bump into @profhein.bsky.social this morning
Hope is not something I feel frequently right now, so yesterday was a very special day. I had the privilege to spend the day with the #CASFutureLeaders - meeting each of these brilliant scientists who are changing the world through their leadership and outreach was so uplifting and inspiring!
One thing you can always count on in the #CASFutureLeaders program is exceptional training from THE BEST facilitators. Thank you to Christine, Bryan, and Fola from @storycollider.bsky.social and Maggie and Emily from scitrain. Great start to our week in Columbus!
Kicking off the #CASFutureLeaders 2025 program in Columbus with an awesome welcome gift from CAS curated by @petercarlton.bsky.social and Nicole! So excited to have finally met the incredible cohort and can’t wait for the week ahead starting tomorrow with @storycollider.bsky.social

Overdue post, but heartfelt thanks to Kraig Wheeler, Trisha Russell, Michael Ruf & Brian Patrick for the outstanding Pacific Northwest Summer Crystallographic Institute at Whitworth! A deep dive into small molecule diffraction & Olex2. Highly recommended!
Check out the stunning cover featuring recent paper from @hoseanelson.bsky.social Lab, led by our one and only @daverdude.bsky.social! He discovered an entire class of natural products using microED powered by arrayED @caltech.edu @caltechcce.bsky.social @uclacb.bsky.social

Excited to share the latest work from David Anderson just accepted @angewandtechemie.bsky.social on the structure and applications of #sodium #neopentyl a donor free #organosodium #reagent soluble in #hydrocarbon solvents @unibe.ch onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....
Chem Camp aka #ORPGRC2025 reminded me why this is more than science, it's about community. Grateful to lead a stellar session with talks by @christinemle.bsky.social, Osvaldo, Lin, Antonio & Diana. Special thanks to @kuhokie42.bsky.social & Dave for inviting me!
Such fun week! So great to meet you irl at last. I feel it is a quest now: get a photo all 4 of us with @bagphos.bsky.social and @kuhokie42.bsky.social 🤣
Also met @dmeremin.bsky.social for the first time irl too!!!
Less than a decade ago, reactions for adding, deleting, and swapping single atoms in complex organic molecules were almost unheard of. Now there’s a growing community of researchers working on them. cen.acs.org/synthesis/Sk... #chemsky 🧪
Skeletal editing: How close are we to true cut-and-paste chemistry?
Reactions that alter organic scaffolds by a single atom are already proving useful, but time will tell if they’ll fundamentally change how molecules are made

Hi! I’m giving a talk about the collaboration I got to work on with @dmeremin.bsky.social at the #CSC2025 conference. If anyone will be there - let me know - and also come see my talk! 😈🤠🇨🇦
One of the unspoken frustrations for many chemists, finally unpacked by my PhD advisor Valentine Ananikov and his team in JACS Au. Reproducibility is everything in science, and this shows why yesterday’s reaction doesn’t always work today A must read: doi.org/10.1021/jacs...
Magnetic Stirring May Cause Irreproducible Results in Chemical Reactions
Magnetic stirrers, the most widely used and ubiquitous devices for performing chemical reactions in laboratory settings, may cause reproducibility problems. Reproducibility in a range of chemical proc...
