If Barbie fans grow up to major in STEM, it's always in the Life Sciences. It's the guys who major in the Death Sciences like physics who are looking forward to Oppenheimer saying The Line.

A little late, but want to shout out our latest paper on oxidation of tellurium containing rhodamine derivatives, a post graduation publication by two great chemists, @irv_does_chem and @KMH_Chem.

Our latest paper is out. Ever wondered how isomers effect computational investigation of heteroleptic Ni(II) H2 catalysts? Great work @Avik_3295 et al! #DFT#hydrogen#chemsitry https://t.co/BtSxvTVEMS
I second all of this. My time with the McCormick group was invaluable and I will take everything I've learned as a scientist and as a person with me to @NTNU and the rest of my career. I'll forever live by "do good science and save the goddamn world"
I’m going to miss the hell out of the McCormick group. Thanks a million times over to all the McCormiCore members for shaping me into the chemist I am today. We are without a doubt, earth’s greatest champions ✨🌎🌏🌍✨

Well, I officially have a bachelor's degree in chemistry!! 6 years after leaving high school I have accomplished this step. I'll be honest it's a little underwhelming but I think it's mostly because my brain has already moved on to my move to Norway and starting at NTNU!!
About to present my undergrad thesis to the department! I know it's only 10 min (it should be anyways) and there's no way for me to like...fail it, but I'm still very nervous! I know I used to perform on stage as a dancer but speaking is very different! 😅😬
Hey Folks, Portland State Women in STEM is hosting a FREE career counseling event for science students with the inimitable @DrJeanita !!!
We're super excited, and if you'd like to join us you can register here: https://t.co/EZp4qQQuhP

Finally heard back from the master's program at NTNU and I have been accepted!!! So now I just have to decide between Norway and the Netherlands for my next two years😅
I got accepted into my first chemistry master's program today!! Im shouting it from all the rooftops! Amsterdam, there's a strong possibility I'm heading your way 😄
@OdedRechavi I danced on a performance company for 8 years! And then continued to teach for several more. I honestly find many of the skills transferable to the lab. Jock chemists are out here✌️
It is really hard to write a 150 word summary of your undergrad thesis for a graduate school application when the thesis is not yet actually written and the direction of your synthetic pathway is ever evolving and the final product is yet to be seen...
How do we solve a problem that isn't measured? The NSF is not planning to collect sexuality data and is putting a questionable gender identity question only on some surveys. #NSF should do better. https://t.co/d3J4GNqvBc
Also several rounds of "okay I'm gonna stop talking about science/work now" as a blatant lie before launching back into something that is definitely science/work
McCormick group zoom happy hour in a nut shell:
Everyone yelling at each other to stop working so hard and continually reassuring @Avik_3295 that “vanilla soft serve with salted caramel drizzle” is a scientifically accurate personality description.
In chemistry, we don’t say “I love you” we instead just include detailed steps of how we prepared the compound in the methods section... and I think that’s really beautiful.
