The Aharanov-Bohm effect
Weisskopf said: The first reaction to this work is that it is wrong; the second is that it is obvious
Ehrenberg said: Ach Hiley, zis AB effect that you are discussing, is it the one that Siday and I discovered?
What is it?

"If a 'religion' is defined to be a system of ideas that contains unprovable statements, then Gödel taught us that mathematics is not only a religion, it is the only religion that can prove itself to be one."

Congrats to @HarvardCCB undergraduate Giovan McKnight who won 1st place in the @NOBCChE Undergraduate Poster Competition at the 50th annual meeting! #chemtwitter https://t.co/4RMcVPBa8e
Major congrats to @KristopherRey13 and Zhifei for publishing their work on bicarbonate oxidation mechanisms in @J_A_C_S. Kris is an unstoppable new spectroscopist captaining the Nocera lab's new TR-FTIR instrument; the first of many, bud! @HarvardCCB

@brrrnkrdrsch Can’t wait for all the amazing things to come out of your lab!
I couldn’t ask for a better mentor and I’m sure all of your future students will feel the same!

It really was a privilege to work with George and to get to spend some time will all the other alums of the GMW group at the 60th anniversary of the group.

Thank you so much @brrrnkrdrsch for your exceptional mentorship and support. You will be dearly missed. Words cannot express the depth of my gratitude for your friendship. All the best at FSU!
Extremely thankful for a wonderful joint going away party for me and @chemgonzalezlab, but even more thankful for the incredible experiences I’ve had at @HarvardCCB in the Nocera lab for the last 3 years. Keep the #lasermafia running strong, @KristopherRey13! Onward and upward.
