We're hiring a postdoc to join our @berkeleylab.lbl.gov @molecularfoundry.lbl.gov plastics recycling team. Scope will include developing new reactions for selective functionalization of polyolefins, assessing properties and recyclability. phxc1b.rfer.us/LBLHM2EPD

I'm hiring a postdoc! Come join us and model actinides. Iowa is a great place to learn radiochemistry! #chempostdoc #compchem @chemjobber.bsky.social jobs.uiowa.edu/postdoc/view...

Left: Protein crystallography provided information about how actinium (magenta sphere, center) binds to a scaffold consisting of a synthetic molecule (magenta sticks) and a mammalian protein (gray surface). The structure when lanthanum (gray sphere and sticks) is substituted for actinium is shown for comparison. Right: Details of the interactions of the actinium with oxygen in the rings of the synthetic ligand.

Researchers @berkeleylab.lbl.gov encapsulated actinium within a macromolecular complex for analysis using protein crystallography and discovered that actinium has a unique solid-state bonding configuration. The work could help improve a promising cancer treatment. als.lbl.gov/a-macromolec...

Hi Bluesky 👋 We're looking forward to sharing our departmental news on this new platform. Please spread the word that we've joined!

Alito now also invoking Dobbs as a way to attack Bostock. Prelogar is just not going to take the bait and he's soooo mad.

Why doesn't Dobbs control this case Alito wants to know in case there was any remaining question the way abortion and trans attacks are coordinated

It is really quite something to hear Justice Alito talk about leaving decisions to people and their doctors and how bereft of expertise the court is.
