I officially have a Ph. D

[preslove]

Also, uclalabrat is now columbialabrat.

Postdoc? Visiting Professor? Tenure track?

 

[CottonRabbit]

Can you link to the paper when it gets published?

It looks like Dr. Shade's paper comes up when you Google "Copper mediated coupling of vinyl boronate esters".

Congrats!!!

 

[MagnusTheBrewer]

I hear the only cure for that is a job.






Congrats.

 

[freejumps]

you are one dedicated man, gj

 

[moks78]

Good show!

Why is it considered a Philosophical Doctorate degree when its in a natural science?

 

[JTalbain]

Congrats man . No more TA'ing that chem 30 series (especially the labs) now... that alone should be a relief.

 

[Ika]

nuts, he's offline - i was going to ask him an organic synthesis question

Errrmm....all Ph.D.s are doctorates in philosophy. Hence...."Ph.D."

[sdifox]

Congrats!
At least your PhD is in science!

There is nothing I hate more than a PhD who puts it in their title and it is in economics, literature or some crap like that.

 

[Fenixgoon]

congrats!

i dunno how you did it. i HATED orgo. i always felt like it was just a bunch of alchemy

 

[brainhulk]

i found organic to be kinda fun. it was like trying to solve puzzles.

In organic chemistry, courtesy of UCLA. Also, uclalabrat is now columbialabrat. I won change my handle as second accounts are frowned upon

Congrats on joining the doctorhood

 

[PlasmaBomb]

I'd tell you, but it wouldn't make any sense. Ah fuckit. Copper mediated coupling of vinyl boronate esters with allylic and aliphatic alcohols, and the synthesis of fdg-bapta-am

I had to look that up...

I now see why your shortened it :biggrin:

Fluoro-2-Deoxyglucose? (there are a lot of FDG's)
1,2-Bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid tetrakis(acetoxymethyl ester)
