It was an incredible party! Many thanks to Guangbin and all the organizers!.
Last weekend, we had a wonderful farewell party for Congjun (@CongjunY) and Miao (@MiaoChen1997) at Guangbin’s home. Congjun will join CU Boulder as a tenure-track Assistant Professor, and Miao will be starting at Merck as a Senior Scientist. Wishing them both the best of luck!

Great work!.
🚨 A single-atom swap could change the game in drug discovery! 🧪💥.We have just unveiled a CO-to-S atom swap method that turns ketones into sulfur-containing frameworks in complex, bioactive molecules in just two steps. .Congratulations to Zining.

This offers an efficient approach for late-stage modification of bioactive compounds, facilitating advancements in drug discovery.
How can one selectively saturate the most unactivated arene in a complex molecule to escape from flat land?.Please check out the directed 6-π activation model we recently disclosed. Congratulations to Congjun @CongjunY, Linda and Zining.

👍👍👍.
Happy to share our recent work on "Enantioconvergent carbenoid insertion into carbon−boron bonds" on chemrxiv. The new class of chiral auxiliaries on boron allow enantioselective insertion of diversely functionalized carbenoids—various tertiary stereocenters are now made easy.
