This was truly a labor of love from the entire team, led by Jake with invaluable help by @angellegnarent1 from the @Gutierrez_Lab on the computational side. If you need precise PPVs, we got you covered!

[Michaudel Lab @MichaudelLab]

Behold ✨ our newest @J_A_C_S paper just dropped! Check out this great collaboration with @Gutierrez_Lab on stereoretentive ROMP for precision PPV synthesis.
