In lecture today, we discussed the Catellani reaction - one of the few reactions named after a woman. I thought the timing was perfect for #IWD! Credit to @WIC_Toronto for the image and bio!

Staying focused: The Female Organic Chemists in University Settings (FOCUS) website continues to grow as a resource @FemOrgChem. Please check it out: fal.cn/3i1Oo. BTW, a WSJ article notes that women now make up about 60% of U.S. college students, and growing. @JOC_OL

Dr. Kozlowski was inspired to co-create @FemOrgChem to bring more visibility to women in organic chemistry. On the road to her PhD, she encountered less than 5 female professors in her field. There are now over 1000 professors from over 50 countries in the FOCUS database. (6/6)
