Dear friends and colleagues,

I am excited to share a preprint describing my take on extracellular targeted protein degradation (eTPD) - a proximity modality termed Sheddase-Targeting Chimeras (SHEDTACs).

Happy to see some of the work I’ve done during my PhD officially published! Check it out!

Proud to share that I have officially completed my PhD in Chemical Biology and graduated from @scripps.edu! 🥳

I am grateful to my mentors, collaborators, friends, and family for their support throughout this challenging yet rewarding and unforgettable journey! 🧬

Excited for the next chapter! 🎓

Dear friends

I will defend my PhD Dissertaion on May15 at 14:00 PST.

A few photos from my week at #ACSSpring2025. Reconnecting with members of our #CASFutureLeaders community is always so inspiring. Thanks to all who tracked me down (and made me laugh) in San Diego!

Beyond thrilled to share that my PhD work is now available as a preprint! 🥳 A huge thank you to my amazing colleagues, mentors and collaborators at @scripps.edu and @abbvie.bsky.social who supported and contributed to this project!

Thank you Brett!! 🥳

We are standing on the shoulders of giants, and Peter is one of them! I highly encourage @cenmag.bsky.social to feature Dr. Carlton as "people of ACS" @acs.org who has been a key supporter of young scientists -- mentoring, volunteering work, making contributions to the community 😀

Was the trivia too easy? Is my Zoom background real? Is Eric "Peter Carlton" Kohn ever going to join us on social media? Yes.

I hope everyone enjoyed our annual #CASFutureLeaders #HolidayCheerUp. I know I did. Thank you to our amazing community for another year of laughs... and learning.
