I watched the match highlights twice this morning because I enjoyed them so much. And I don‘t even dislike any US players, and also don‘t care too much about Belgium as a team.

America didn’t just lose a World Cup match. We lost credibility. A President personally intervened with FIFA over a disciplinary decision and created the appearance that political power could influence the rules of the game. The reputational cost was far greater than the sporting cost.

I'd like to add that like in all industries, when we stop understanding how our tools work, we become entirely dependent on the corporate entities that own the mold. We are trading the ability to build and repair for the convenience of being permanent tenants in someone else's infrastructure/subs.

Our long awaited equipment installations began this week with the set up of our 600 Evo standard bore magnet for solid-state NMR! Doug Lyons from @brukercorporation.bsky.social will be pumping the magnet soon, and charging sometime next week. #NMRchat #chemsky

Greetings Bluesky people. Please don’t be vampires like at the other place

Hi #chemsky The New Chemscrapes website is now fully up and domain transfer complete. Loving WordPress. chemscrapes.net Appreciate shares and maybe some patience while I try this new way to navigate the many different chem communities across social media. 🫰

In our recently submitted grants we had to change “traumatic brain injury” to “concussive brain injury” and “male and female mice” to “male and non-male mice” because traumatic and female are now verboten words that can get our grants killed. It’s insanity.

Congrats, Josephine and the team!! Check out our newest mechanistic deep dive into R2lox: Isotope labeling and EPR spectroscopy reveal that this Mn/Fe enzyme activates C–H bonds to form a unique Tyr–Val crosslink via a Mn⁴⁺/Fe⁴⁺ intermediate.

Selective isotope labeling probes the chemical capacity and reaction mechanism of a heterobimetallic Mn/Fe protein

The R2-like ligand binding oxidase (R2lox) forms a novel tyrosine-valine crosslink upon O2 activation, reflecting an overall two-electron oxidation re…

Yesterday was wonderful. We celebrated our third PhD graduate, Dr. Simon Schumann 🎉 🥳 Congrats, Simon. We are very proud of you! Simon is a dedicated scientist with love for 19F, ENDOR and G-quadruplexes. Therefore, there will be more from him, us and @cleverlab.bsky.social 😀

Müge‘s Lab does beautiful EPR of beautiful systems. And there are PhD openings.

Even the smallest contamination on an NMR tube can significantly impact your results. A dirty sample can lead to: - Poor shimming and reduced sensitivity - Potential contamination of the probe, requiring time-consuming maintenance #NMRchat #ChemSky #RealTimeChem

This is seemingly true. Given what I've written in many public forums, I would genuinely decline to travel to the US right now. I find that extraordinary.

Mark Chadbourn@chadbourn.bsky.social · last yr.

The UK has now issued a travel warning for the US: possible arrest or detention for failing to meet entry requirements.

I mean, it’s not Trump or Elmo. It’s the I don’t know how many millions of USAnians happy to follow their orders. ICE, police, FBI agents, probably the military as well, all happy to do this.

Jenny Cohn@jennycohn.bsky.social · last yr.

“France’s research minister said a French scientist was denied entry to the US this month after immigration officers at an airport searched his phone and found messages in which he had expressed criticism of the Trump administration.” He had been traveling to a conference near Houston, TX. 3/19/25

David, we understand the concern and frustration, and we hear your appreciation of this resource. We have paused specific sections of the style guide for review and refinement. We’ll post updates as they are ready. ACS remains fully committed to inclusion and belonging as a core value.
