This year I decided to get back in the lab, re-learn how to do chemistry, and get a new project off the ground. Hereβs what Iβve been up to. Thanks @PluthGroup members for all the help! More soon π§βπ¬
Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is the newest gasotransmitter & a key protic small molecule bioregulator. We developed a platform approach to develop & deploy biocompatible responsive chemical tools for HCN delivery. Check out Mike's paper in @angew_chem! https://t.co/317Xe9GFdw
Honored to receive the UO CAS Collegiate Faculty Award! Thanks @uocas for this recognition, and for recognizing the research contributions, creativity, and innovation from @PluthGroup members!

Scenes from day 1 of the #NextGenBiomaterials workshop at the Knight Campus, today. Funded through a new collaboration between the @NSF DMR and @NIBIBgov, the collaboration bt #KnightCampusBioE, @uoCHandBIC & Materials Science Institute continues tomorrow https://t.co/c1n0BLNtyS
Excited to have a great group of biomaterials leaders at the @UOKnightCampus Next Gen Biomaterials Workshop next week to develop a roadmap of future challenges, opportunities, & directions! @Benoit_Lab5@mhhettiaratchi@profjasti
Want more info about the UO PhD programs in Chemistry & Biochemistry? Have questions about the application process? Come visit one of our @uoCHandBIC virtual information sessions in November! Preregistration is required at: https://t.co/k2l5Cfz8j8

Looking forward to #ICBIC in Adelaide & all things related to biological inorganic chemistry!
Thurs 15:30 Room L3 - Will be highlighting recent work from @PluthGroup on model Se compounds and H2Se delivery!
Looking forward to learning about all the roles sulfur plays in microorganisms this week at #ISMSM6 & sharing @PluthGroup sulfur chemical biology on Wed (may sneak in some Se chemistry as if S wasn't complicated enough!)
