Hey everyone! Tahirah’s the name, energy transfer catalysis is the game 💡. I like crystals, LEDs and making photocatalysts 🥰. Currently finishing up PhD first year @greaneygroup 🇬🇧 and I’m excited for more adventures @astar_research 🇸🇬 from next month 🥰 #BlackInChemRollCall
Grad students: holiday break is upon us. There are a ton of self-righteous jerks who will try to convince you to work yourself to the bone because you have to. Those people are liars. You can succeed in academia and also rest. Nothing is worth sacrificing your rest.
Fresh out in @angew_chem, we use arynes to accomplish a C-N arylation of electron-poor anilines, unlocking the aniline C-N bond as a functional handle for arylation. We're really happy to see this out!

There is no amount of self-care or wellness that can fix a broken system.
How many more residents have to suffer?
Dr Nakita Mortimer may you rest in power and finally find peace🕊️
2 young black girls in New Orleans have proven the Pythagorean Theory which is 2000+ years old and has never been proven by a single mathematician! I don’t think y’all hear me!
Out in @NatureChemistry our💡arene C–H functionalization strategy, introducing triarylsulfonium salts as e– acceptors in photoactive EDA-complexes, “Len’s donor” (a newly-designed, catalytic triarylamine e– mediator) and rediscovering t-Bu isocynide as radical cyanating agent🔗👇
Delighted to finally have this published! Check out the first paper from my PhD in @GroupProcter in which we describe a general platform to access aryl radicals via EDA complexes.
Out now in @NatureChemistry. https://t.co/J697e8gFL2
I really would like to see JACS release stats on desk rejects broken down by investigator and institutional demographics.
I think the community is owed this.
Also, welcome to first year PhD Jack, second year Ani, visiting PhD student Nieves, and MChem students Ben and Chloe. Finally, best of luck to 2nd year PhD Tahirah @teetheechemist who's off to Singapore for two years as part of her A*STAR PhD programme!
#BlackJoyinChem reminding myself and others you do not have to fit inside the “this is what a #scientist looks and acts like” box. You are a scientist regardless of how others perceive you. My personality always shines through 👸🏽👩🏽🔬⚗️. #BlackGirlMagic#blackinchem

Y’all, I am Munashe, a final year grad student at Uni of Cape Town & An E-Board member @BlackInChem. My work focuses on making complex N-heterocycles relevant to med Chem & Chem bio, excited about #BlackInChem week & looking forward to connect with y’all🤠. #BlackInChemRollCall
