Great to do 5K run today organized by GSs of @nuchemistry.bsky.social to support the @fooddepository.bsky.social! @ulresearchinst.bsky.social was pleased to sponsor. I forgo reporting my finishing time (youngsters were speedy), but held own with (older) faculty crowd incl @omarfarha.bsky.social 😁.

back of race t-shirt containing the logos of sponsors including UL Research Institutes and UL Standards & Engagement. At top of shirt the boxes from the periodic table for Gadolinium (Gc), Lutetium (Lu), Carbon (C), and Potassium (K), are organized left to right to provide the semblance of spelling out "Good Luck"

I'm Chris. I serve as Chief Research Officer for @ulresearchinst.bsky.social. As a chemist, prof emeritus, & admin, I opine on science, research leadership, innovation, higher ed, public-private partnerships, and the challenge of turning discovery into real-world impact. 🧪 #SafetyScience FTW

Yours truly with our social media maven holding a blue t-shirt with "Wow!" emblazoned on the front, celebrating 2 million views of our Safety Shorts series

Also, I want to make clear that this will be a VERY serious account. Doing things like posting pictures of myself jamming with @holdenthorp.bsky.social at the afterparty for our recently completed Annual Research Symposium would be utterly inappropriate. Ish. 🤷‍♂️

I've got lead vocals on Dylan's Wagon Wheel, surrounded by colleagues, band members, and a certain guest artist on keys
