So excited to see my first first-author publication of graduate school online! It was a real team effort!
We are thrilled to share our new paper out last week in @J_A_C_S! We describe polymer catalysts using a novel triphenylphosphine acrylamide monomer to facilitate Suzuki-Miyaura cross-couplings (1/4)

So excited to share my work with the community!
If you are at #ACSFall2022, check out the research of @quickslanders and @Benjami81790427!
🧪📊🎷
Ben Allen is today 4:55pm in the @POLY_ACS room s103d.
Matt Sanders is Wednesday at 5:15pm in the @POLY_ACS @acspmse student chapter symposium (s101a) discussing his catalytic SCNPs

Check out the latest from the Waters Lab: we analyze sulfonium-π, ammonium-π, and sulfur-π interactions in a β-hairpin peptide model system, alongside computational and PDB analysis! Congrats to Katherine and our collaborators! @KIAlbanese pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…

It's a UNC-CH/NC State house (paper) divided! See the new research paper in @wileyinresearch journal @angew_chem by @uncchemistry Prof @abigailsknight and @ncstatemse Prof @YaraYingling: "Mapping the Morphological Landscape of Oligomeric Di-block Peptide–Polymer Amphiphiles."

Once a month on a Friday, @KnightGroupUNC has Lunch-Intersectionality. Today I led a conversation about Accessibility in STEM & Higher Ed, and only afterwards did I realize today is #InternationalDisabilityDay2021!!!
It was fate 🙂🎉👩🔬🦿🧑🏫♿️

Sci-athon registration closes tomorrow! A little incentive: if we have >50 total registrants by the end of the day, @mulloym has challenged @abigailsknight to dye her hair for #quarantineSciathon (and Irene will too!) Fill out the google form to help make it happen 👩🏼➡️👩🏼🦰🙈
