This week's Paper-of-the-Week (POW) presentations in our weekly group meeting featured some great work by @SandfordLab +@pfizer, @shchom83, @bobbypaton + @YuyangDong and Wu + Zhu group! #Chemistry #Boron
I am super excited to announce that my recent paper with @Sigman_Lab and @JacobsenLab has been chosen by The Journal of Organic Chemistry (@JOC_OL) as their 2025 Outstanding Publication of the Year! Read our article linked below or catch my award lecture at ACS Fall!
Congratulations to UTSA Chemistry’s Dr. Jacquelyn Read on winning the 2025 JOC Outstanding Publication of the Year Lectureship Award! Her team's groundbreaking work on noncovalent interactions in organic chemistry will be honored at ACS Fall 2025 in D.C.! tinyurl.com/mry98yyp
3/4 This #workshop series is on the future of automated chemical laboratories. It is exploring new concepts and funding pilot projects in how #automation and ML/AI might transform chemical laboratories and democratize access to advanced technologies.
Thanks to all who participated in the 2nd meeting of #Scialog: Automating Chemical Laboratories! Cosponsored by RCSA, @BeckmanFnd & Frederick Gardner Cottrell Foundation, with Walder Foundation support.
A novel technique to drug discovery is being developed by one of our very own chemists! This innovative approach uses light to trigger reactions, and could lead to a new generation of antibiotics. 🤩 Learn more: bit.ly/4haueLd #UTSA @UTSAResearch @UTSASciences

We are thrilled to extend our heartfelt congratulations to Shelley D. Minteer @MinteerLab @sandtChemistry @MissouriSandT being elected as a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in the class of 2024!!!
Announcing our new members! The Academy is honoring excellence in an array of disciplines and professions, and inviting these new members to join our work to advance the common good. The first members were elected in 1781. Learn who was elected in 2024: amacad.org/news
1st meeting of #Scialog: Automating Chemical Laboratories, cosponsored by RCSA, @BeckmanFnd, the Frederick Gardner Cottrell Foundation, and Walder Foundation, ends today with proposals to accelerate innovation in basic research through advances in automated instrumentation & AI.
If you're along the shaded path on the map, clear your schedule and grab your eclipse glasses! 😎 A total solar eclipse will be crossing over North America on April 8 and won't return until 2044. More: bit.ly/3VtKcJs
The world needs science, and science needs women. 👩🔬🧪 Yet, they remain under-represented and struggle to get recognition for their achievements. More from @UNESCO on Sunday’s International Day of Women & Girls in Science: on.unesco.org/WomenInScience
