🚨 Chemical Biology & Probes study section (formerly SBCB, one of two NIH panels that reviews chemistry #chemsky πŸ§ͺ) was abruptly POSTPONED w/no specific plans for rescheduling, less than 24h before start. If this affects you call your reps & senators, talk to local news, make your voice heard πŸ“’ πŸ‘©β€πŸ”¬

How have I managed without these for 46 years?

Nominations for this year's CBBG Lectureship Award will be opening in March - so get thinking of scientists who have made major scientific and community contributions to our chemical biology community! Self-nominations are permitted, we'll be back with further details when nominations open

Amazing speaker lineup (Imperiali, Seeberger, Aye, Gonzalez Bello, Walport, Walport, Vendrell, Kele, Zeymer, Green, Thorn-Seshold, Biber) and beautiful venue - join us at #ESBOC58 in Gregynog/Wales on 28th-30th May for amazing #chembio and #bioorganic. Speaker/poster slots, registration 14th March!

This one is mostly about the title subject (featuring a very interesting compound from academia) but it’s also about attacking the NIH:

There goes a giant... www.theguardian.com/film/2025/ja...

Interested in applying a chemical biology approach to ubiquitin signalling? Elton Zeqiraj and I are currently recruiting a postdoctoral researcher in this area! jobs.leeds.ac.uk/vacancy.aspx...

😱 For every researcher at the ~420 German universities (nr includes applied science unis), there are certainly many respectable publishing options available, with serious peer review, both in the form of society journals or even with "commercial" publishers... πŸ˜₯πŸ§ͺ

There's always an odd one out...

Job alert: fully funded postdoc position in chemical biology in beautiful Geneva! Do you have a PhD in Chemical Biology or related field with organic synthetic experience? Apply now! Details on how to apply can be found here: www.hoogendoornlab.org/joinus #chemsky #ChemBio

A difficult topic: increased neurodiversity awareness has helped lots of people. At the same time, many children with severe autism are not getting the support they desperately need. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The RSC Chemical Biology and Bioorganic Group is now on Bluesky and delighted to be here! We're really looking forward to keeping you all updated with the latest events and news from our community, across the UK and internationally. Spread the word to those you know, and give us a follow! #chembio

Thanks for the invite @drmikebooth.bsky.social. Hopefully this will provide my occasional fix of the (late) blue bird app's good stuff: interesting science, networking and a bit of entertainment.
