Security at Bristol airport asked me if i had a body in my backpack bc it was so heavy. I said 'I'm not supposed to say yes to that, right?'. Apparently security did not like that...

I don't want to cast doubt on the impeccable dependability of google AI, but I don't remember this particular plot twist in du Maurier's REBECCA

Which challenges physics more: five-sided snowflake or penta-tertbutylcyclopentadiene?

I had a great time in London at the joint NMRDG and BRSG winter meeting over the last couple of days. It was also fantastic to present one of my current projects there and a huge thanks for all of the interesting questions and comments that followed! @rsc-nmrdg.bsky.social

Congratulations to Roisin O'Dea and @annabelflook.bsky.social from the group who gave a great talk about how to get started with reaction monitoring using NMR to the newest chemistry cohort across Scotland at the latest SNUG meeting. #nmrchat

throwback to my most popular post from the Other Realm

It's a little bit late, but I'm really excited for my first paper! For reaction monitoring by NMR, signal-averaging can be applied *after acquisition*, and results in better S/N *and* data density without the typical trade-off. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/... #NMRchat #NMR @lloydjonesgroup.bsky.social

For any other #NMR enthusiasts out there, the team at Manchester put together the perfect advent calendar. Thank you! www.nmr.chemistry.manchester.ac.uk/advent24/

This was incredible to see (especially after I missed seeing them already that month...)

I think about this a lot as I'm panicking in my shower.
