Researchers and Academics: Video is the future of accessible scientific communication. I made the video below about a paper I wrote during my PhD in the @AppelGroup by simply attaching the PDF and writing just 5 chat prompts (no manual editing). I used @SpellshotAI . Spellshot is an AI-native video editor that that can transform hundreds of raw assets into a structured, editable videos in minutes. Agents handle clipping, assembly, trimming, captions and schematic generation automatically. Then you can refine everything in a full track-based editor. This tool can transform your teaching and presentations.

Finally, someone has solved a real problem with AI! No more having to take a paper in the format for a journal that rejected you, and reformat it for a new journal. Well done!! formatmypaper.com/

Shoshana conducted this really cool study developing a module for high school students (and potentially undergraduates) in on the chemistry of #henna that was published in the Journal of Chemical Education @ACSDivCHED: pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…
Check out this highlight of Shoshana William's work on #henna by @Stanford_ChEMH @Stanford! chemh.stanford.edu/news/art-…

In this work we developed a spray-drying approach for protein therapeutics leveraging our polyacrylamide copolymer excipient we previously developed to stabilize proteins. This excipient technology was reported a few years ago in @ScienceTM: science.org/doi/10.1126/scit…
Check out new work from Carolyn not-on-X Jons and @AlexProssnitz on ultrahigh-concentration biologic therapeutics enabled by spray drying with a glassy surfactant excipient, out today in Science Translational Medicine @ScienceTM! science.org/doi/10.1126/scit…
