Saturday mornings in November are for 🐶 cuddles, 📺 Dynasty, and 📝 student recommendation letters. It’s pretty fun to recount their achievements in 1 place and cheer them on! It’s also fun to see how much style has (and hasn’t) changed since the early 80s #alltheshoulderpads 🤠

Spooky way to spend Halloween as a kid: visiting a haunted house 🧟‍♀️
Spooky way to spend Halloween as an adult: paying your property tax bill 😫

Stop by the @UCSDChemBiochem booth at #SACNAS2019 to say hi to Alina and Aaron and get a fee-waiver to apply to our PhD program!

[Valerie A. Schmidt @v_a_schmidt]

@Schmidt_Group1 Celebrated with the worst 🍾 I’ve ever had which is saying a lot from someone who genuinely loves Andre. Good thing it had a cool label

[Valerie A. Schmidt @v_a_schmidt]

Halloween is a time to celebrate the spooky things in life, but applying to graduate school shouldn't be one of them. Reach out to [email protected] for fee waiver info so you can join our program at no cost! #avoidthe👻💸

A look back at last week’s All Hands-On Event celebrating National Chemistry Week with hands-on activities for all K-12 students!

[Komor Lab @KomorLab]

Come join us next week on Wed from 5-7 pm for All Hands-On! To celebrate National Chemistry Week we will be using chemistry to make some tasty boba! The event is free! https://t.co/yOD5gXk3oD

[Valerie A. Schmidt @v_a_schmidt]

Never need a reason to spend time with my wonderful colleagues, but especially great to celebrate @RinehartGroup leader’s “birthday” 🍻🎉

[Valerie A. Schmidt @v_a_schmidt]

it's obvious, but while reading what I considered the *somewhat* recent literature, I realized that papers from the 1990s are almost THIRTY YEARS OLD! Not 10 years old like my brain auto-corrects to...🤯

Folks interested in carbon footprints, check out this video by @MustLoveScience about how dying can impact the environment! #aquefaction #ifeelbadforthatcookie

Next year human composting will be legal in Washington State and there’s some cool chemistry behind the process.
