Several group members recently traveled to APS at Argonne National Lab to carry out some fun photocrystallography measurements. We even had time to squeeze in a few sleep-deprived hours in Chicago!

This is an amazing model – awarding prizes to teams instead of just individuals. Congrats to all awardees... and in particular, to our postdoc @chandra24.bsky.social and his fellow team members for their groundbreaking work on non-heme iron-oxo chemistry!

A bittersweet time in the group. Paul Yoon completed his fifth-year MS degree, while Marina Zapesochny and Miranda Stewart graduated with their BS degrees. Marina and Miranda are respectively headed for Cornell and UMN to pursue their Chemistry PhDs. We'll miss all of you and wish you the best!

ACTION ITEM-----ACTION ITEM Implementation of Schedule F This is what a lot of us have been worried about. This allows for many civil service positions to replaced with political appointees. This could include NIH institute directors and even POs. BUT THERE IS A COMMENT PERIOD... 1/n

It's a great day for #MyFirstChemSci! In our new paper led by grad student Bevan Whitehead, we show that a fluorophilic Zn-based metal–organic framework shows a very large selectivity for CF4 adsorption over N2... just not in the way we thought it might. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Sensing that unseasonably warm (70 ºF ?!) temperatures await, the group emerges from its Hutchison lair for a new photo
