einstein sent this to curie in 1911 when she was being harassed by tabloids. it contains everything you’d want in such a letter: (1) your haters are trash (2) you’re a baller, a true queen (3) i have determined the statistical law of motion of the diatomic molecule in planck’s radiation field 🧪⚛️

20 minutes ago here in Venetie, Alaska, the skies erupted in a beautiful auroral substorm. Here is just one of many real-time videos I recorded during the show to give you a sense of how fast and dynamic the aurora can move.

Generative artificial intelligence (genAI) software isn’t coming for chemists’ jobs just yet—at least not when it comes to visualizing molecules. cen.acs.org/physical-che... #chemsky🧪

@francesarnold.bsky.social has spent her career creating enzymes that can accomplish chemistry that nature never intended. C&EN spoke with her about her days as a rebellious teenager, her life as a leader in biochemical engineering, & her time serving her country. cen.acs.org/people/award... 🧪

Every day on the internet makes it abundantly clear that some people have never had a single person turn around and say to them, ‘Cite your sources’ because, and I say this with every ounce of love I can muster as a teacher: while you are entitled to your opinion, that does not make it fact.

I feel this.

My toxic trait: Let's see if this activity that always makes me flare, makes me flare this time

My Saturday morning coffee I must be the most trustworthy scientist ever, since I say fuck very frequently 🤣

When I was little, I was inspired by smart and talented people, such as #scientists, #musicians, and #polylingual people. It shaped a lot of my passions growing up! I learned many instruments, #French, and studied many sciences. I hope I can #inspire others, as well. You never know who's watching. 🥰

It definitely seems this way right now. #science

This is highly accurate. #organicchemistry

My husband hates when I do this! #physics

I refuse to call Twitter by its new name. If Elon wants to dead name #trans people and he refuses to call them by their new names, I'm going to dead name his website and refuse to call it the new name he gave it.

This week on what I did with my #chemistry degree: I watched water boil. 😂

I don't hurt or kill #bugs when I find them. I either leave them or relocate them. 🥰 #vegan for the #animals

#consent matters! You don't owe anyone physical affection, even if they save you from a fire-breathing dragon.

Probably showing my age here but this was the first thing that popped into my mind 😅

Come, Bender. You'll like being dead. That's what they said about being alive! #Futurama

Chronic #migraine sufferers know how hard it is to make plans ahead of time. I always say, "let's see how I'm feeling that day." Today, my hubby asked if I wanted to go to a restaurant. I got a migraine in the car on the short ride there. I'm so thankful for my Loop earplugs. Lifesavers.

I made this account just to hurt his feelings more.

I made spooky potions for the chemistry lab last month.

Today’s #WomenInSTEM Book of the Day is a classic that celebrated its 50th anniversary last year - Robert Clarke’s wonderful 1973 account of pioneering MIT ecologist, environmental scientist, and materials chemist Ellen Swallow! #HistSci #BookSky #ChemSky

Today would have been the 132nd birthday of María Orosa, the food chemist whose creation of Soyalak and Darak and hundreds of other native recipes not only helped the Philippines grow more food self-sufficient, but saved thousands of lives in WWII. #WomenInSTEM #HistSci #ChemSky #FilipinaPride 🧪
