I got to see the wonderful #crochetcoralreef created by @margaretwerth at the Carnegie Museum Art. There are so many interesting creatures in this collection. Also great to see @KayBrummond and learn about sustainable lab practices 😃.
Great article about the Crochet Coral Reef. I am a huge fan of @margaretwerth and Christine Wertheim, and the article has some wonderful photographs of their work. nytimes.com/2024/01/15/scien…

The discoveries by Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman – awarded the 2023 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine – were critical for developing effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19 during the pandemic that began in early 2020.
Through their groundbreaking findings, this year’s laureates have fundamentally changed our understanding of how mRNA interacts with our immune system. They have contributed to the unprecedented rate of vaccine development during one of the greatest threats to human health in modern times.

The graphic represents the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine awarded to Katalin Karinkó and Drew Weissman who received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries concerning nucleoside base modifications that enabled the development of effective mRNA vaccines against COVID-19.
We had a fantastic lineup of student speakers at our annual Chemistry Biology Interface Symposium along with Dr. Uma Sharma from @mmsholdings as the keynote speaker. Dr. Sharma is amazing and really captivated the audience with her story and advice.

Congratulations, Dr. Mlotkowski! #35 of the Chow lab PhDs!! Fun fact: Alan was the first PhD from the lab to be born AFTER I started my faculty position. @Alan_Mlotkowski @waynestatechem
Nice work @Alan_Mlotkowski ! Happy to complete our second collaborative paper with Prof. Berny Schlegel.
Big news today! My paper was published where I investigate the impacts of aza and deaza modification on the pKa values of nucleobases! #RNA #pKa #phdlife pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
We report on faculty support and ability to help graduate students explore nonacademic careers. cell.com/heliyon/fulltext/S2…
Congratulations @McLellan_Lab !!
The winner of the 2023 NAS Award in Molecular Biology is Jason S. McLellan of @TexasScience! He is being honored for pioneering work in the molecular and structural biology of viral surface proteins. Learn more: bit.ly/3Xu5GnF #NASaward #MolecularBiology
Thank you @SibrinaCollins !!
We are so excited to announce that Bettye Washington Greene will be honored with an #ACSLandmark! Thanks to the hard work of @SibrinaCollins & Mark Jones who nominated Dr. Greene for a National Historic Chemical Landmark - which has been approved by the @AmerChemSociety.
Many thanks to our wonderful speakers (@MelodyKelleyPhD @ClaricePhelps39) and to @SibrinaCollins for her talk about Dr. Bettye Washington Greene’s important research contributions at Wayne State and Dow.
The inaugural Bettye Washington Greene Endowed Memorial Lectureship and Career Panel hosted by @waynestatechem and Dow Chemical was incredibly inspiring! Great job Dr. Chow @chrstysc! #womeninSTEM
Harpers Ferry. Should that sign say 61 or 272? It is all a matter of perspective @KayBrummond @ProfessorShana
