Any insight into this fall's updated COVID vaccines? I'm fortunate to have my choice of Pfizer, Moderna, Novavax. I've always <3 the mRNA vaccines, but just read (not sure how trustworthy) that this new batch of Novavax is deemed equally effective & likely less fever/fatigue???

The 1908 logo was bold, artful, and intentional, designed by Tiffany & Co. The 1987 update was a tasteful, artful update that preserved chemical heritage. This new logo is ugly, meaningless, and forgettable. It looks like an AI's take on an AI logo. It has nothing to do with chemistry. #changeitback

Why @acs.org? Why? Why waste resources making something so much worse? This was really the best thing you could do with the money? The best way to celebrate 150 years? In the midst of a funding & legislative crisis? Really???

Very grateful to @organicdivision.org , @hopecollege.bsky.social , @pubs.acs.org , @wileychemistry.bsky.social , and our other sponsors for keeping registration, especially student registration, so affordable for #RMC2026. We'd love a few #Chemistry industry sponsors to come alongside as well!

There are way more folks who want to go to med (vet, dent, PA) school than there are seats. The schools want ~100% graduation rates. They aren't selecting for who will be the best doctors (vets, dentists, PAs), they are selecting the ones most likely to make it through.

No April fooling - #RMC2026 Registration & Abstract Submission close May 1. The 40th biennial Reaction Mechanism Conference is June 7-10 in Holland, Michigan. That's less than 10 weeks away, so book your flights & hotels soon too! hope.edu/rmc2026

The rationale I've heard from a diversity of sources is that success in organic and MCAT scores are two of the best predictors of success not as a doctor but as a 1st & 2nd year MED STUDENT. And that med schools don't want to take a chance on anyone who might not survive the coursework.

For those of us blessed with a choice of all three readily available in my area, does the data therefore show a slight preference for Moderna over Pfizer over Novavax?

Curious what single you think introduced our generation to them? I feel like I learned a dozen or more of their songs, like probably their whole greatest hits album, all at once.

The meeting will span all areas of mechanistic chemistry, with a special session on industrial chemistry. It will also feature our longstanding undergraduate context session, and panels on careers in industry and at primarily undergraduate institutions.

I worked occasionally in a laser lab in there during a sabbatical in the Chem Dept & Center for Bioinspired Solar Fuels over a decade ago. Then and now a neat looking building that from several angles looks plopped all alone in the desert, not part of a huge campus.

Oops, realized after reading others' that I left off a couple episodes of summer camp counseling (neurotypical elementary schoolers and developmentally disabled adults)
