Extremely happy to announce that I was awarded an @snsf.ch starting grant to lead my own project @ethz.ch starting next year! 🎉
Thanks to everyone who supported and encouraged me along the way! Exciting times ahead. (Will be looking for doctoral students soon-ish).

In our recently submitted grants we had to change “traumatic brain injury” to “concussive brain injury” and “male and female mice” to “male and non-male mice” because traumatic and female are now verboten words that can get our grants killed. It’s insanity.

Congrats, Josephine and the team!! Check out our newest mechanistic deep dive into R2lox: Isotope labeling and EPR spectroscopy reveal that this Mn/Fe enzyme activates C–H bonds to form a unique Tyr–Val crosslink via a Mn⁴⁺/Fe⁴⁺ intermediate.
Selective isotope labeling probes the chemical capacity and reaction mechanism of a heterobimetallic Mn/Fe protein
The R2-like ligand binding oxidase (R2lox) forms a novel tyrosine-valine crosslink upon O2 activation, reflecting an overall two-electron oxidation re…

Even the smallest contamination on an NMR tube can significantly impact your results. A dirty sample can lead to:
- Poor shimming and reduced sensitivity
- Potential contamination of the probe, requiring time-consuming maintenance

A beautiful non-answer.
David, we understand the concern and frustration, and we hear your appreciation of this resource. We have paused specific sections of the style guide for review and refinement. We’ll post updates as they are ready. ACS remains fully committed to inclusion and belonging as a core value.
