Can evolution go backwards? - American Chemical Society Can more complex traits revert back to a simpler form?

I recently joined the Tiny Matters podcast talking about the resurrection of ancient antibiotics and how reviving ancient molecules could help us understand the diversity of bacterial chemistry 🧪💡

This interview with @nadineziemert.bsky.social was a fun surprise on my morning commute. Resurrected antibiotic paleomicin as an example of evolution moving from more to less complexity: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Great episode, ostensibly about allergies, but also about the many reasons why penicillin is STILL a wonder drug! #secmet #naturalproducts podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

It’s a good one!

Best part of SIMB #NP2025 was catching up with some of my favorite people @pieterdorrestein.bsky.social @mingxunwang.bsky.social @nehagarg.bsky.social @kyobinkang.bsky.social @eustaquiolab.bsky.social

She did a fantastic job!

‘Godfather’ @BradMoore_SIO hands off his SIMB lecture on growth-coupled biosynthesis to @LeahBushin. What a cool story! #NP2025

J Nat Prod rocks!!! chemsky

Prior to acceptance. Most used to do at revision but more and more have been doing it at submission. And yes.

Since June 2023 J Nat Prod requires them for all new molecules. Most authors I’ve seen have deposited at NP-MRD, the rest at Harvard Dataverse or upload as SI

The ACS Division of Organic Chemistry has joined the Chemsky community!

Since returning from sabbatical, I’ve gone ‘Full Frizzle’ with the chemistry-themed clothing and accessories. I may rethink this after seeing it on hubby during BIL’s “Dress Like Your Spouse” party last Saturday… 🧐

A chemistry earring selfie in honor of 10/23: Erlenmeyer flask and Bohr atom. 👩‍🔬 ⚛️ Happy Mole Day to all who celebrate! 🎉

Catching up on podcasts…how did I miss this episode from last March about marine natural products, featuring @EricSchmidtLab Amy Wright and @SafaviLab?! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t... #secmet

Now I just need to learn how to follow a feed! (Assuming that’s what one does with it…) 😂
