Calcea Johnson and Ne’Kiya Jackson made waves in 2022 when, while still in high school, they announced a new proof of the Pythagorean theorem. They’ve now published several alternative proofs of the theorem in today’s issue of American Mathematical Monthly. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

"Juneteenth in STEMM and the barriers to equitable science"
This commentary in yesterday's @CellCellPress focus issue, written by 52 Black scientists, uses Juneteenth as a lens to discuss racism in science and offer steps to take to reduce it: cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…
ALT “Juneteenth recognizes and celebrates freedom, civil rights, and the potential for the advancement of Black people in the US. Yet, it also serves as a day of reflection and hope that a nation might someday live up to its core founding principle - equality for all.” - Mays et al.

I am extremely horrified and frustrated about a recent racist incident involving a Reed faculty member. We as an institution need to take accountability for his actions and fully acknowledge the hurt he has caused to our community members.

This situation is horrifying. I do not represent Reed, but myself and my other colleagues of color are determined to not let this situation take up more space. We are strong, our voices are loud, and we will eclipse this. Reed has rushed to support us.

Alma Hayden, a black chemist at the FDA, used IR Spectroscopy in the 60s to prove the controversial drug Krebiozen could not cure cancer and was merely creatine. Elevate black scientists by highlighting her work in your intro class and use this case to show the power of IR spec

Today @Reed_College_ Chemistry had the delight of hosting Dr. Tiara Moore @curly_scientist for seminar! Great talk on environmental DNA (you can ID ecosystem species by SOIL AND WATER SAMPLES?!) and wonderful convos about Black In Marine Science @BlackinMarSci. Thank you Tiara!

I am SO excited to say that Reed Chemistry has snagged TWO top young chemists - @wimblegon and @NicoleMJames1! Nicole is a force of #CER applying chem to interdisciplinary contexts, and Gonzalo is at the frontier of single-xtal transitions of organic semiconductors. ¡BIENVENIDOS!

✨Petition to change “initial rate” to “baby rate”✨
Peep the visualization of a general KIE calculation. Very on point if we do say so ourselves.
