Excited to see part of my work from when I was an @Amgen Scholar at @UCBerkeley published! Nature and chemists continue to impress me with their synthetic prowess, especially when their strategies converge! pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102…


Highly recommend this opportunity! I had an amazing time at @Merck this past summer!

As a 5th year PhD student, I struggled a lot with Imposter Syndrome and I tried many things to solve it. These methods helped me manage my imposter syndrome and ultimately finish my PhD. thestrugglingscientists.com/imposter-syndr…
