New JCE ASAP article! We surveyed industry chemists from 80 companies about the undergraduate instrumentation experience / skill development that best prepared them for chemical industry. Happy first pub day to David Hamilton and Alyssa Castillo! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

The inevitable backlash from those seeking to protect and enable ill-gotten and abused power is all the more reason why we cannot stop fighting for change.

C-GEM was at the Golden Bear Welcome UC Berkeley today - lots of good questions about C-G science and how to get involved in research as a transfer student! #NSFfunded

Something that more women should be aware of is that men who were brought up by strong mothers do not necessarily become feminists. Rather, some of those men grow up resenting female power and independence and they often insist on women's dependence and submissiveness as gfs,

Ever wanted to incorporate ncAAs into your protein but found the efficiency to be too low? Check out our new preprint, where we turned a simple observation in protein translation to an effective quadruplet codon translation strategy!

Thank you to Professor Emeritus Ken Ribet (Ken Ribet), of UC Berkeley, for making this year's Winston Ko Public Lecture memorable and intriguing! Kudos to everyone in the @UCDavis Department of Chemistry (UC Davis Department of Chemistry) for organizing such an awesome event! #lectures #UCDavis #math

Welcome to this year's cohort of C-GEM Summer Undergraduate Research Program Scholars! #NSFfunded bit.ly/3yTdDeH

Chemo-ribosomal synthesis of atropisomeric and macrocyclic peptides with embedded quinolines: chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxi… Congrats to Isaac Knudson, Taylor Dover, Diondra Dilworth, Cameron Paloutzian, and Hannah Cho, Miller Group Schepartz Lab and NSF Center for Genetically Encoded Materials.

Today in @nature, we discover a new enzyme in mammalian taurine metabolism- and uncover a chemical connection between diet, genetics, and body weight. Congrats Wei Wei (魏伟) Sarafan ChEM-H Stanford Pathology Michael Fischbach Cholsoon Jang SvenssonLab Lingyin Li Lab nature.com/articles/s4158…

Check out our most recent work developing new strategies that leverage massive mRNA-displayed macrocyclic peptide libraries for covalent ligand discovery! Congrats Tong Lan and thanks for Matthew Bogyo and Scott Snyder for collaboration! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

Grateful I could share a bit about my interests in the chemistry and biology of unnatural peptides in the Fall UCB Miller Institute newsletter! Check it out:

This is SO COOL!! An amazing way for everyone to contribute to important scientific discoveries! #citsci #participatoryscience #rna

We have a postdoc position available for a very cool collaborative project! Synthetic chemistry expertise is a must! Unfortunately due to the funding source, this position is only available to US citizens or permanent residents. Please share and reach out if interested!
