I had a phenomenal time at the 2025 #CASFutureLeaders program two weeks ago! I can't wait to meet up with everyone again in the future. Thank you so much to @CASChemistry and @petercarlton for putting on a fantastic program for young scientists around the globe ☺️

[CAS @CASChemistry]

Thank you to the 2025 #CASFutureLeaders for an exciting and inspiring two weeks with us! We hope that your time in Columbus and #ACSFall2025 has given you new insights and perspectives on science leadership—and that you've made lasting friendships along the way.

[Fer 🚀 @gomobel]

Seriously the #CASFutureLeaders class of 2025 (and alumni!!!) is such a wonderful group of people 🎉💖 whoever in #chemtwitter still around here, could I ask for a RT and like? ✨👍🏼🙌🏼 they sooooo deserve it 🩵🫰🏼 @CASChemistry @AmerChemSociety @cenmag #ACSFall2025 @ACSPublications

[Alex Gabbey @GabbeyAlex]

Only two more weeks! I'm so excited to fly to Columbus in August to meet the 2025 class of @CASChemistry Future Leaders 😁

[CAS @CASChemistry]

Alex is focused on Ni-catalyzed cross-couplings of redoxactive esters, as well as the synthesis and functionalization of strained rings. Learn more about @GabbeyAlex and the 2025 #CASFutureLeaders before they arrive in Columbus this August. https://t.co/eVEXM3g0Sa

🆕 Preprint out now on @ChemRxiv!

We report a modular flow cascade for the synthesis of γ- & N-substituted γ-lactams via photochemical radical alkylation and cyclization.

Fast, scalable & broad scope!

@danithechemist @DrLCsquare Thank you Dani!! 😁

[Alex Gabbey @GabbeyAlex]

AAAHH I still can't believe this is real! I'm thrilled to share that I've been selected for the 2025 #CASFutureLeaders program. The biggest thank you to my mentors and colleagues for their support! I can't wait to connect with fellow scientists in Columbus this August 🤩🧪🥼

[CAS @CASChemistry]

Join us in congratulating the 2025 #CASFutureLeaders! We look forward to welcoming these exceptional Ph.D. students and postdoctoral scholars to Columbus, Ohio, and Washington, DC, this August. https://t.co/59m5gdePaD

[Alex Gabbey @GabbeyAlex]

@DrLCsquare Haha thank you!! An accurate representation of how I felt when I got the news 🎉

[Alex Gabbey @GabbeyAlex]

@sam_dudra Thanks Sam!! 🥰

[Alex Gabbey @GabbeyAlex]

@DMEremin Thanks Dmitry!

[Alex Gabbey @GabbeyAlex]

@JuliaTurner97 Thank you!! <3 <3

[Alex Gabbey @GabbeyAlex]

@petercarlton Thank you, Peter! Looking forward to seeing you too!

[Reggie Mills @reggiemills28]

Nice to see this new iron work in @Orgmet_ACS, which demonstrates some cross-coupling reactivity principles that will help my lab to develop new iron-catalyzed reactions in the coming years

[Noel Research Group @NoelGroupUvA]

We've developed a robust photochemical alkylation method to transform secondary amides into α-substituted secondary amines. Broad functional group tolerance, scalability via #flowchemistry, and ideal for drug discovery!

Thank you to everyone who participated in QOMSBOC 2024 at @chemuoft ! @RousseauxGroup, @scotchburned and I had a fantastic time organizing this conference and we were so impressed with the quality of science that shared by all of our presenters. We hope to see you back next year!

[QOMSBOC 2024 @qomsboc]

And with that, QOMSBOC 2024 has come to a close! A huge thank you to everyone who participated. From our sponsors, to our plenary speakers, to our volunteers and attendees, the conference wouldn't have been a success without you! 🤩 Keep an eye out for details on QOMSBOC 2025 🧑‍🔬

[QOMSBOC 2024 @qomsboc]

We can't think of anything scarier than missing out on QOMSBOC! Head to https://t.co/tZaCHyktnl to get your ticket! @EWOCEastCAN @chemuoft

[Dawson Konowalchuk @DKonoChem]

Excited to announce that a project I had worked on during my internship at Xenon is finally out and published in #JOC: a new hydrodifluormethylation method that affords high diastereoselectivity from N-heteroaryl alkenes! @JOC_OL

[QOMSBOC 2024 @qomsboc]

Happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving! Abstract submission closes on Tuesday October 15 @ 5 pm. We have spots for graduate student oral presentations and posters. If you are a grad student, you may be eligible for an EWOC travel grant. See https://t.co/tZaCHyktnl for more details🍁 🦃 🥧
