Progress 🤦‍♂️. You still have passion!

Teach with chalk and a board and no PowerPoint 🤷‍♂️ ....oh and a bit of passion for the subject I guess helps.

They'revnot even funny and the whole thing is just them sitting around taking rubbish. Glad I don't have to pay the licence fee.

Toxic formalin or something else? Shining a light on the University Museum’s mystery jars Chemist Wesley Browne came up with a way to figure out which of the University Museum's wet specimens have been preserved in toxic liquid.

Nice!
@wesleybrowne.bsky.social used Raman spectroscopy to check if old samples are toxic

Supramolecular hydrogels for sure🙄 I mean the odds got to make it worth a punt

If you're in the audience - lab cloths are fine. If you are in the opposition then just a batman costume will do.

Nice team work where theory lead experiment

I learned a lot going through shelfs accidentally reading things I would not have looked for

Blackboard

It is

Is it just me or is women's rugby just as watchable now as the men's game. I never thought I would be rooting for a Canadian team in any sport🤷‍♂️

Stirring bars are needed for palladium free Suzuki coupling!

Easy now, ger on with ye

Or sit with a white board, a coffee and a PhD student (with chocolate to create distraction) when you really should be doing admin.

So is the Welsh government going to demand their return? Sounds fair enough if they don't have receipts🤷‍♂️

Drop the comma please😅

Mostly ethylacetate and solvent mixtures. I think we use DCM and CH3CN because they were available and cheap. Same as with benzene

No, but it's use drops as students are not trained on it. Likely will be less available in the coming years also.

We eliminated DCM in teaching labs over 10 years ago! The fines for water waste pollution were a huge incentive to do this (in NL they take water seriously and have a completely separate water government!)

Been here 20 years and still have not found any😐
