Platinum(II)-based cytoprotectants? You read that right - platinum is not just for killing cells! Congrats to former undergrad extraordinaire Mike Donohoe on a super effort for his first publication and @adityau1993 for his first paper @J_A_C_S. #ferroptosis @uOttawaResearch

A great effort. What amazing things polysulfides can do - particularly with a bit of light. Congrats to the team @Chiba_Group @PrattGroup! More to come from this awesome collaboration.
Check out our new paper @Chem_CP on dearomative dimerization and skeletal rearrangement of quinolines under polysulfide anions photocatalysis, led by the great collaboration between Eugene, Amirah and Ali from @PrattGroup @Chiba_Group!

Amazingly, Carsten Berndt and Marcus Conrad @Conrad_Lab defied the odds and managed to herd cats! A must-have reference document for anyone interested in @Ferroptosis1. Thank you to everyone that participated to make this happen.
Everything you've ever wanted to know about #Ferroptosis in Health and Disease! Massive review from many in the field. Happy to have contributed and huge thank you for the leadership from Carsten Berndt / Marcus Conrad @Conrad_Lab. 🙂

Awesome to see this story together. Great job Eugene, Ali and Amirah!
Check out our new preprint @ChemRxiv on dearomative dimerization and skeletal rearrangement of quinolines to indoles by polysulfide anions photocatalysis, that came out of a collaboration with @PrattGroup. Congrats to Eugene, Ali and Amirah! go.shr.lc/3R74pBD

The first Bern Symposium on Radical Chemistry will be held on June 27-28, 2024 at the University of Bern.
We will have an exciting scientific program!

Go eHAT team! Congrats Luke and @ChengChem! It has been fun for us to be working to promote C-H oxidation rather than our usual gig of trying to slow it down. More fun to come with @StephensonLabUM and @maldonadogroup.
Congratulations to the eHAT team on the newest publication out today in @J_A_C_S, led once again by the terrific collaboration between @ChengChem and Luke from the @PrattGroup @maldonadogroup @StephensonLabUM

Another big round of applause goes out to Dr. Luke Farmer for enhancing the radical trapping capabilities of phenoxazine and phenothiazine through the assessment of non-tertiary alkyl substituents on the scaffold. Check out the paper @JOC_OL 👇
