My time in academia will come to an end in two weeks. After 8 years at @QUT, in September I will start a new journey as a Field Service Engineer with @thermofisher based in Brisbane. I'm incredibly excited!

Has anyone ever wished they could degrade specific sections of a polymer on demand? Probably not, but we did it anyway - Check out Phuong's work on remote-controlled polymer degradation in @ChemSci. Enabled by @QUTmaterials and @ANSTO ! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

Who says OzID and UVPD can’t peacefully coexist together on the same mass spec? url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com… Despite how many holes we drill in it, our @ChemistryUoM @Bio21Institute QE instrument keeps going. Another successful collab. with @BlanksbyStephen @bljpoad and Sam Brydon

How diverse is the sn-isomer lipidome? We used DIA and OzID to resolve hundreds of sn-isomer pairs, investigate their diversity across cell lines and identify new lipid species

How many laps can you do? Our paper on Revolutions in Lipid Isomer Resolution has appeared online in Analytical Chemistry. Huge team effort on this one! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

The total number of lipids in LMSD has just passed the 48000 milestone. Newly-described fatty acids from @PhilippMenzel2 and @BlanksbyStephen which we're in the process of adding have tipped us over that bar! lipidmaps.org/databases/lmsd…

Using Peptide Self-Assembly to Switch [2 2] Photocycloadditions ON or OFF. Check out the first paper from @BaileyRicho00 ‘s PhD project published in @J_A_C_S. Special thanks to @DmitriGolberg and @DrChaoZhang for the stunning TEM work!

Extremely excited to share my first first-author paper published in @J_A_C_S! Check out how we could use peptide self-assembly to control the [2 2] photoligation of polymers.
Huge thankyou to @HendrikFrisch and all of the excellent co-authors!

Moving house after being in the same place for 7 years is scary; I didn't think I was <this> much of a hoarder.

Our #ChemSciPicks for this week is from @pagelgroup @BlanksbyStephen @kimgreis!
The authors show that carbon-carbon double bond configuration and position can be revealed by 3-pyridylcarbinol ester dervitization and gas-phase IR spectroscopy.

ALT A graphical abstract image for the Chemical Science Pick of the Week, 15th February 2023. The work shows how lipid derivatisation can be used to determine the double bond position and configuration of fatty acids.

We can pinpoint double bond positions in unsaturated fatty acids using cryo IR coupled to MS! The fatty acid composition of cancer cell lines can be determined and quantified, including 6Z-octadecenoic acid.
