We loved having you. Great work coming out of @HematianLab. Redox and Cu, yes please!
A fantastic tour of the Duke Chapel after my seminar yesterday. Thanks to @FranzLabDuke and everyone @DukeChemistry for a great visit and many wonderful one-on-one and group talks! @DukeU
Great people and fantastic science at #ICBIC20. I’m so fortunate and thankful to have given a talk on my thesis work with @FranzLabDuke 🦠🧪 A huge thank you to @SBICofficial for allowing me to make the trip to Adelaide
Several years ago, I wrote a 2-page guide on how to give a killer narratively-driven scientific talk. I called it "The David Attenborough Method", in homage to the master storyteller. I recently expanded upon it in a short essay: authors.elsevier.com/a/1hRhv5Eb1BZj…
I teach a class on how to give a great scientific talk. The core idea is that humans absorb information effortlessly if it is delivered as a compelling story. I call it the 'David Attenborough' method, in honor of the master. Attached is my style guide. #scicomm @Attenboroughs_D

It is such an honor to be @SydneyChemistry as the Hans Freeman lecturer! In preparation, I read up on old papers of Prof Freeman (recommend), and share this gem with you. Yes, indeed, #MetalsAndPeptides are still a subject of increasing biochemical interest!
We’re so fortunate to have Kathy @FranzLabDuke visiting @SydneyChemistry for a couple of weeks as the Hans Freeman lecturer. Enjoying her public lecture now and looking forward to more talks and discussions to come. @Sydney_Science @SBICofficial

“If the pandemic was whispering to us about air quality, the wildfires are screaming to us about it,” writes @linseymarr. “It’s clear we should be on the precipice of a new public health movement to improve the air we breathe.” nyti.ms/3P8KXEe
Do you know any post-baccs or current research associates that would like to work in my lab? I’m looking for a 2 year commitment and an interest/skills in proteins and metal ions! Pay is competitive and the work is fun. I just need help doing all this science! DM for more info.
María Montes Bayón will be the recipient of the 2023 Lester W. Strock Award in recognition of her series of stellar publications addressing the use of atomic spectroscopy in speciation and metallomics! Congrats ...👏👏👏 @uniovi_info @Fac_Quim_Uniovi @SEQA_QA @FACSSnetworking
Last call! The Ph.D. Transitions Group Coaching program offers Duke doctoral students the opportunity to work closely with a certified professional coach for an entire semester, and receive 2 hours of RCR credit. Please register by June 15, 2023. bit.ly/3oJhvKp
