Nice story about our GBM research by Yale Student Isabella Backman. There are few treatment options for these patients, and none are curative. We are rooting for Merck and Company and hope they'll be able to get these drugs into the clinic soon!

Out now in Science: Three-component assembly and structure–function relationships of (–)-gukulenin A, as a first release research article.
Congrats to the team! (1/4)

We had many failed strategies and could have walked away from the project a half dozen times.
We could not be more proud of the team on this. (3/4)

Out today in @J_A_C_S is the first synthesis from our group!! We report a convergent and stereoselective total synthesis of the nominal structure of Talaromyolide D. Huge congrats to Bo and Alex! @nyuchemistry @TotalSynthesis

Absolutely beautiful !@MartinTomanik your team beats everyone in using these two bifunctional pyridone ligands for CH hydroxylation. The sp2 CH sp3 coupling with epoxide by MPAA ligand will also inspire more use of such sp2 Sp3 coupling. congrats ! @HerzonLab you trained him well

The total synthesis of chartelline C!
Accomplished in a small number of transformations from material intercepted en route to the securamines. Each step was informed by the unique topology and unconventional reactivity of these isolates 🥳🙌

Some of these natural products were made by @BaranLabReads @HoveydaLab @Shenvi_Lab @KrischeLab @GargLab @HerzonLab @JohnsonGroup @brianstoltz70 @Brimble_Lab @TheFerreiraLab and more!

This new piece showcases 100 natural products. Many of their syntheses have had significant impacts in org synth.
There are many different structural and functional motifs that have required amazing innovations in synthesis. And one of mine is in there too! #chemtwitter #sciart
