Female Organic Chemists

Our mission is to increase the visibility of female organic chemists by creating and maintaining a database of women in the field.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay ! We're excited to announce the launch of our website https://t.co/eIAbxaSmbq and the FOCUS database, a collection of female organic chemistry professors around the world. 👩‍🔬 #WomenInSTEM #chemtwitter

Question for Women in STEM: What barriers have prevented your success in academia? If you've left, what changes could have swayed you to stay?

[Female Organic Chemists @FemOrgChem]

Could this be the birth of Female Inorganic Chemists??? Suggest your fave women in inorganic chemistry to Dr. Push!

[Dr Sally Plush @PlushSally]

Looking to expand network of amazing Women in Inorganic Chemistry in Universities around the world, who is out there? Suggestions anyone? Who is rocking the field? #womeninchemistry #inorganic #chemistry #WiC

In lecture today, we discussed the Catellani reaction - one of the few reactions named after a woman. I thought the timing was perfect for #IWD! Credit to @WIC_Toronto for the image and bio!

I've been writing references this morning and remembered that I'd retweeted this resource a few weeks ago. These adjective lists have been such a help!

A nice present after Christmas time ..... It is finally out!! We are happy to share with you the edited new book on Anion-Binding Catalysis @Wiley_Chemistry. Thanks to all the great contributions that have made this project so successful!

[Dr Jess Wade liked it here once @jesswade]

i’m often asked for science book recommendations, so here’s a bunch i’ve enjoyed lately. they’re really, really great. 👏🔬📚

[Female Organic Chemists @FemOrgChem]

Happy New Year! 🎉 We're wishing you 2022 full of health, happiness, and successful research!

[Angela Wilson @Angela_K_Wilson]

Honored to be serving as 2022 President of the American Chemical Society. I am looking forward to all that the chemical science community can accomplish during 2022! #chemistry

The estate of Henrietta Lacks has sued the pharmaceutical company, Thermo Fisher Scientific, on Monday, accusing it of selling cells that doctors at Johns Hopkins hospital took in 1951 without her knowledge or consent.

Fun fact, Picture a Scientist is on @netflix. Hey #sciencetwitter #scicomm, let's get it trending, and parents, remember to show your kids 🎥🍿
The world needs all the scientists it can get, and to better appreciate the ones we already have 👩‍🔬👩🏽‍⚕️🏥🧫

[J Org Chem/Org Lett @JOC_OL]

Staying focused: The Female Organic Chemists in University Settings (FOCUS) website continues to grow as a resource @FemOrgChem. Please check it out: https://t.co/GQ007rNSMY. BTW, a WSJ article notes that women now make up about 60% of U.S. college students, and growing. @JOC_OL

We're hitting pause on #WomanCrushWednesday for awhile, but we encourage you to celebrate and give voice to women in STEM!!

[Female Organic Chemists @FemOrgChem]

Who would you like to see featured in our #WomanCrushWednesday series? We're looking for female organic chemistry professors all over the world and in all stages of their careers!

[Female Organic Chemists @FemOrgChem]

Our July EiC series is coming to a close, but we can't forget our former crush Dr. Carolyn Bertozzi, EiC of @ACSCentSci!

[Female Organic Chemists @FemOrgChem]

Happy Pride Month!! 🏳️‍🌈 We’re celebrating LGBTQ+ organic chemists all month long, starting with this week’s #WomanCrushWednesday, @CarolynBertozzi! (1/7)

parity of gender in the sciences

There is only one thing girls want, and it starts with a P and ends in a S.

[Female Organic Chemists @FemOrgChem]

Dr. Kozlowski was inspired to co-create @FemOrgChem to bring more visibility to women in organic chemistry. On the road to her PhD, she encountered less than 5 female professors in her field. There are now over 1000 professors from over 50 countries in the FOCUS database. (6/6)

[Female Organic Chemists @FemOrgChem]

Did you really think we'd do an Editors-in-Chief series and not include the founder of @FemOrgChem? Happy #WomanCrushWednesday to Dr. Marisa Kozlowski, EIC of Organic Letters! (1/6)

[Female Organic Chemists @FemOrgChem]

Her awards include the @AmericanCancer Beginning Research Scholar Award, Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellowship, @NSF CAREER award, and DuPont Young Investigator Award. In addition to her role as EIC of Org. Lett., she’s also an assistant editor at J. Org. Chem. (@JOC_OL). (5/6)
