Have any chemistry grad students been affected by the NSF MPS-Ascend fellowship being archived? #ChemSky

Screenshot of NSF webpage for the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Ascending Postdoctoral Research Fellowships showing it's been archived.

Hi #ChemSky! @cenmag.bsky.social and I want to learn how the chemistry community might be affected by any immigration policies currently being proposed for 2025. If you might be impacted and can give any insight, I'd really appreciate if you could fill out this form: forms.office.com/r/87NQhFKrFh

WHY do some places no longer serve fries with a burger? Like you have to pay an additional $3 to “upgrade” for fries? 🙄

Good news, Altmetric has now started watching BlueSky for mentions of publications. And by the way, provides an easy comparison between this and the old site for a recent preprint of mine which I posted simultaneousl at both. Numbers speak by themselves !

Hey #chemsky, meet our new first year, Yu (Cheryl) Chen, who has a bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering from Guangdong University and a master’s degree in chemical engineering from Northeastern University! Her thesis work will focus on developing silica nanoparticles for agriculture! #nanosky

So @altmetric.com is now tracking on @bsky.app too! Flagging for #Chemsky

A screengrab of a paper being tracked on Altmetric.com; the Altmetric donut score is 89 and the title of the paper is 'Photocatalytic low-temperature defluorination of PFASs'. The 'Bluesky' source tab is the one highlighted showing one post that mentions the paper in question.
