Very happy to have passed my PhD viva yesterday. Thanks to @UofGChem for having me all these year, to @wpeveler for being a great supervisor and my examiners for their examine duties 😁

🎉Happy Birthday @BBC on your 100th birthday! When you were founded we had a King, no one knew if they could afford to put their heating on and we'd just lived through a global pandemic. Times really do change!

Excited to see this out! Thanks to @JennyGracie_ @effe_zeta @BrianOSmith1967 and Iain Andrews (at the Scotch Whisky Research Institute) for their work on our simple optical analysis of how your #whisky is aging in the barrel using #GoldNanoparticles @UofGChem #AgeIsNotJustANumber
New research led by @wpeveler of @UofGChem demonstrates how tiny particles of gold can be used to measure the maturity of whisky. The finding could help distillers with one of the key challenges in the production process. Read the full story 👉 bit.ly/3RSSEfu

Reading two nice new papers in Nature, but: Paper 1: submitted January 2020, published May 2022 Paper 2: submitted June 2020, published June 2022 Neither available as a preprint. Why do we still allow journals to hold up dissemination of science? We need a preprint mandate.

Had a nice evening listening to @drjuliashaw talk about her new book. Encouraging to see scientific academics discuss these topics and help understanding of LBGTQ+ history, while sharing personal experiences. Thanks Julia for stopping to chat with me this afternoon as well. 🏳️‍🌈
