So excited to share with you work I've done with
in @KiesslingGroup now out on Biorxiv! Here, we were deciphered how native mucus cultivates and retains probiotics using synthetic polymers, leveraging the information to design new prebiotics. Check it out! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Dr. Jill Alty, a postdoctoral researcher in the @KiesslingGroup has brought to life the PoWER conference (to be held July 11-12, 2024), the goal of which is to showcase polymer research conducted by women.

Congratulations @dsyangta Dr. Deepsing Syangtan on his big degree! His research that spanned from glycan roles in stem cell fate decisions to the gut microbiome was tied together beautifully in yesterday's defense. We will miss you greatly! #glycotime
A perfect stocking stuffer for your chemical biologist: This season, decorate your mannose with fluorophores to make them glow! Mannose-specific labeling using our biosynthetic incorporation strategy out in JACS now. Way to go, @lsoyoung327 & @vicmarando! pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102…
I’m so excited for this conference!! We have an amazing team of organizers and a powerhouse lineup of speakers. Mark your calendars for PoWER 2024! Feel free to reach out with any questions or interest in involvement #womeninstem
Save the date for the inaugural Polymer Women Empowerment and Research conference, held July 11-12, 2024 at Northwestern! We already have a great lineup of speakers from academia, industry, and national labs, with more to come. polymerwomenempowermentresea…
Congratulations to Dr. Katherine I. Taylor! Katherine elegantly tied together her thesis work on the chemoenzymatic synthesis of galactofuranose polymers and lysine reactive squarate probes—The group surprised her with her favorite molecules in stained glass form!
Congratulations to our very own, Carolina Ortiz Cordero (@carolinaortizco), for this esteemed honor! We are excited to learn what you discover about glycans in cancer and neuromuscular disorders as an HHMI #HannaGrayFellow
🎉 Today we're thrilled to announce our 2023 #HannaGrayFellows! Please join us in welcoming and celebrating these outstanding early career scientists!

Our purely chemical approach (shout-out to my wonderful collaborator Clair Gutierrez from the Raines lab) for turning proteins “ON” and “OFF” is finally out! The generality of this strategy was highlighted with three examples - lysozyme, cytochrome c, and HIV protease!
RAK Week Shout Out to Gang Liu: Is there any lab equipment this man can't fix? I've heard of him fixing computers, biotages, milliQ systems, GPCs, centrifuges, and more. He's so helpful and definitely deserves a shout out! #RAKWeekShoutOut
Excited to share a pre-print of our work in the @KiesslingGroup describing interactions between human lectins and stool microbiota. Some highlights below: (1/4)
