Interested in how configurational isomerization of a pendant group can be influence the shapeshifting of bullvalenes? Check out our work! Thanks to @mcgonigalgroup @MaturiWill @ANBismillah @Peekay_Wen and team for all their hard work on this.

@RJGilliard @tbaumlab @KenMaly1 @jfchimie @BryanKoivisto @chriscaputoTO It was great meeting you and seeing all the cool chemistry your group is up too!

[mcgonigalgroup @mcgonigalgroup]

And in https://t.co/7wledvYxK8 @b_a_hussein @MaturiWill @ANBismillah @Peekay_Wen and the team show how E-to-Z configurational isomerization of a pendant group can be linked to the shapeshifting rearrangements of bullvalenes

[mcgonigalgroup @mcgonigalgroup]

A double whammy of papers on shapeshifting molecules are online now @ChemicalScience

In https://t.co/ufn6yDyoEc @Rob_A_Ives @MaturiWill and the team categorise exactly what shapes bullvalenes can access (their stereodynamics)

I also reconnected with one of my mentors, @laure_kayser, and saw her work on conductive hydrogels.

[Dr Burhan Hussein @b_a_hussein]

#CSC2024 Winnipeg was a blast. It was amazing seeing what the Canadian chemistry community is up to. The conference highlights were seeing Prof. Richmond Sarpong @SarpongGroup talk chemistry, my colleague @quezada_novoa award talk, and the Manitoba Museum mixer.

[Dr Burhan Hussein @b_a_hussein]

@laure_kayser I will be there!

[Mohamad Moosavi @MoosaviSMohamad]

Congratulations to Victor Quezada from @ChemAshlee’s group for a well-deserved recognition “graduate award for Inorganic chemistry” from Canadian Society of Chemistry (#csc)

[Dr Burhan Hussein @b_a_hussein]

Come check out my talk controlling the dynamics of bullvalene at #CSC2024 at Meeting room 1 at 3:40 pm today!

[Dr Burhan Hussein @b_a_hussein]

I made it to Winnipeg for #CSC2024. This is my first conference presenting has a Dr. Hussein! Excited to reconnect with the Canadian chemistry community and share some of the science I got up to in my PhD

Remember Dexter's Laboratory? I will be starting a new project soon, and My friend Estelle stylized me as one of my favourite shows growing up. I love it!
