We're the Hopkinson Group @LeicStructBio and @Leicesterchem. We use #ChemicalBiology to study how aldehydes affect cellular functions in health and disease. Follow for lab updates and cool science! (Not to be confused with @Hopkinson_Lab😉)#chemtwitter #AcademicTwitter #FirstPost
Sara (@sara_ycho) and Liam (@Liam0324) from our Group (and Cristina from @RichardDoveston Group) decided to jump out of a plane at 14,000 ft on Saturday! We promise it's not a routine group initiation! 😅
Huge thanks to the @RSC_CBBG for organising a fantastic forum at Burlington House in London on Friday. We loved catching up with the #chembio community alongside members of the @HodgUoL and @RichardDoveston Groups from @LeicStructBio and @Leicesterchem. Great science on display!
We are also incredibly proud of our fantastic postdoc Dr @vickilou76 for delivering an amazing talk on using molecular tools to probe the biology of formaldehyde. Well done Vicki! @RSC_CBBG #chemtwitter #chembio

Publication time! A change from my recent baking related posts 😆
Delighted to have my work published in @ACSMedChemLett. Was putting this together whilst preparing for the final stages of @BritishBakeOff. Rewarding in a very different way 😂 #chemtwitter

Great to see this work out in the Journal of Fluorine Chemistry in honour of @KokschGroup! In this paper, we use BT-SRF reagents to prepare perfluoroalkyl thioesters from carboxylic acids. Congratulations to Alex, Matteo & Haoyue! @ChemistryNCL @fubcp sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
We had a great time at the German Christmas Markets in Birmingham last week, especially MChem student Jake! 🎄🎅❄️☃️
