It's #GivingDay, and I'm donating to help send #chemistry and #biochemistry students at #CSUSM to their first national conference!

New: After a long wait, the GRFP solicitation is live! Deadlines have been extended to early November, so applicants have a bit over a month to submit. www.nsf.gov/funding/oppo...
The GRFP announcement from NSF cuts out an entire cohort of 2nd year students from consideration, without warning. This is so deeply unfair that it warrants a formal protest from the scientific community. If someone wants to work with me to craft an open letter and solicit signatures, LMK.
Published an op-ed for @cnn.com: “Nobel laureate: I owe America my success. Today, its scientific future is in danger.”
A personal reflection on what’s at stake as science funding gets slashed. I’d be grateful if you could amplify both in and beyond the science world.

Imagine being wrongfully sent to prison in a foreign country—and then simply abandoned. It’s not just un-American; it’s unconstitutional.
That’s a tau-rific sign!!
Absolutely enormous and peaceful crowd today!
#HandsOff2025 San Diego
The message is: crowd large.
Many politicians, administrators, and business leaders, in bowing to Trump, have drawn confidence and comfort from the perceived vibe shift.
Events like this puncture that delusion.
Welcome to the Bluesky account for Stand Up for Science 2025!
Keep an eye on this space for updates, event information, and ways to get involved. We can't wait to see everyone #standupforscience2025 on March 7th, both in DC and locations nationwide!

Had a rewarding experience in Chicago at the Annual #NSF S-STEM Scholars & PI Meeting! Also got to bring with me three #CSUSM #CBTLC Scholars who are supported by our scholarship program.
Absolutely amazing experience!

Hi Bluesky peeps 👋
#intropost alert~
I’m an associate professor in chemistry at a PUI and HSI who dabbles in breaking the norms of what an organic chemist looks like. Academic 🧢 hats I’m wearing: research PI, grad coordinator, nsf grant director, student club advisor, and #greenchemistry advocate.
