Buon #PrimoMaggio a tutti! Un buon momento per ripercorrere come si siano evoluti i salari medi in Europa negli ultimi trent'anni. 🇮🇪 Irlanda +74% 🇫🇷 Francia +33% 🇩🇪 Germania +30% 🇪🇸 Spagna +4% 🇮🇹 Italia -1% 🥲

Finally I read this viewpoint in @ACSMedChemLett. I do not disagree that successfully crafting a total synthesis is a good medicinal chemisty training ground, but how the over-competitive culture in total synthesis groups has stiffled chemistry innovation can't be ignored. (1/x)

Pretty sure I’m going to sleep okay tonight despite this clearly career-ending McKinsey white paper. For those who need to hear it again: generating “potential molecules” is not the rate-limiting step in drug discovery.

Statue su Mussolini, immagini del Ventennio, foto del colonialismo fascista, camicie nere. Da domani Ignazio Benito La Russa sarà presidente del Senato, la seconda carica più importante. E a proclamarlo sarà Liliana Segre, che del fascismo fu vittima. Vergogna, Giorgia Meloni

Excited to see this finally out: SMARCA2 isoform-selective (90% identical bromodomain sequence) and orally bioavailable PROTAC degrader ACBI2 achieves efficacy in SMARCA4-deficient tumour models in vivo. Great teamwork @UoDLifeSciences #CeTPD @Boehringer @farnaby84 @ChemHaWei

Med chem early career tip: drug discovery is its own skill. A bit of chemistry, biology, DMPK, toxicology — but none of those things exactly. First industry job, you won’t know it. Swallow the Dunning-Kruger pill early. If you don’t feel humbled by the task, something’s missing.

A few weeks ago, I was asked what kinds of questions I consider for career self-reflection — a process I recommend doing at least once a year. Below is a non-exhaustive set of questions. Feel free to add more reflection questions that have helped you in the comments! 1/11
