A couple weeks into writing up and I'm enjoying it about as much as I expected - actually quite a lot

I don't want to think about how long it took to make this... Elacestrant (racemic). £700 for 10mgs and I finally have 1.5g. Do I finish the PhD or just sell it and make a run for it?

Big news for #TPD field, ARV-471 vs fulvestrant for ER degradation.

So many TACs! Excited to see what new stuff we can come up with now we seem to be really mastering the induced proximity space

Finally properly moved over from Twitter...not that I'd used it in years anyway.

Glad to see this is so much more active than when I first got my account a year or so ago!
