Take a look at the project that consumed most of my PhD! Happy to have this out there

[Swager Group @SwagerGroup]

Take a look at our latest @ACS_Sensors publication on NDMA detection in water, led by former grad student @jesscbeard and postdoc @ChiHsienWang. A big step towards rapid, affordable environmental sensing! https://t.co/elfkWwMO7p

@Bergy_Dunitz Congrats!

A problem with the advice "don't eat anything that has ingredients that you can't pronounce" is that I'm am an organic chemist, so I can basically pronounce all the ingredients

@radscientist_ Tiny little void

The first paragraph of this article is the best paragraph I have read in years

[The Robb Group @TheRobbGroup]

Welcome to our new postdoc Dr. @jesscbeard !!!

A PhD is temporary.
That typo in your thesis is forever.

[Seven Rasmussen @toomanyspectra]

actually a bit eldritch how grad school lures you in with promises of arcane knowledge but then drives you to an incurable madness

[Jessica Beard @jesscbeard]

@bri_barbu Unfortunately, not really, but I may have to ask an acquaintance for a favor in that regard 🤷‍♀️ It didn't even occur to me this would be an issue in my housing hunt 🤦‍♀️

[Jessica Beard @jesscbeard]

I'm in a mad scramble to find housing near Caltech, and a fun twist in this effort has been realtors/landlords that won't let me apply without seeing the unit in person!! SOS 💀😭

[Jessica Beard @jesscbeard]

I've watched this about 5 times now

[MassDCR @MassDCR]

With move-in day right around the corner, overpasses all over the Boston area need your help. They need to not be hit by a moving truck on Storrow Drive or Soldiers Field in Boston & Memorial Drive in Cambridge. Plan your move in day route accordingly & watch for the signs!

[Only In Boston @OnlyInBOS]

You can't drive moving trucks on Storrow Drive.

You can't drive moving trucks on Storrow Drive.

You can't drive moving trucks on Storrow Drive.

You can't drive moving trucks on Storrow Drive.

You can't drive moving trucks on Storrow Drive.

Have a nice day.

@zachhern My finished defense slides?

[Jessica Beard @jesscbeard]

@DrCBrew Are we talking a pocket knife or something larger?

[Jon Piccini @JonPiccini]

Defend my PhD thesis? After all it did to me??

[Stephanie E Suarez @geologiststephy]

Having to ask "weird barbie" for advice is the equivalent of having to ask the most senior grad student for department lore and how to navigate in said space.

@BagPhos @GouverneurGroup @OxfordChemistry @BrowneGroup @JamieLeitch165 @ScienceMagazine My lab has some old-ish Retsch ball mill our lab manager bought off eBay and it may not be fancy, but it does the job (though ours can get kind of hot, which was pretty unfortunate when I had a Diels-Alder adduct that was super prone to retro-DA)
