Planning a wedding while finishing my PhD may have been stressful but it made for an unforgettable two weeks!! And a crowd-pleaser of a reception introduction as Mr. & Dr. Donelson
The Environmental: Innovative Approaches and Instrumentation session was a success! Huge thanks to the speakers, student assistant, and everyone who packed the auditorium #ASMS2024
Very excited to be chairing my first oral session next week at #ASMS2024. Join us Monday afternoon in the Environmental: Innovative Approaches and Instrumentation session for an exciting set of talks ranging from submarines to PFAS to moose metabolomics!

A science career highlight for me for sure - discovering new chemicals and publishing in @ScienceAdvances, with the added bonus of working with @JessieChappel on her review. Very proud of all of this work and grateful for endless support from @ErinBakerIMS!!
A huge day for the Baker Lab! @KaylieDonelson non-targeted PFAS work @ScienceAdvances and @JessieChappel review detailing statistical & informatic lipidomics approaches @AnalBioanalChem were released on the same day! 🎉

This was my “but wait there’s more!” dissertation chapter which I worked on over the holidays in a state of mania (see desk) to finish 😅 well worth it to show up after the new year with brand new data for @ErinBakerIMS and now add to our PFAS knowledge and ID capabilities!

So glad that the Baker lab made it home safely but so incredibly sad for them and the rest of the UNC community for what they had to face yesterday. Grad school is hard enough without losing your sense of security
Sometimes there are no words😢 My group is physically okay but the active shooter was in our building yesterday so we hid for multiple hours until evacuated by the amazing police! Our hearts are broken for the lost faculty member! #UNC students, please let me know if I can help💔
Great work - so excited and proud of @JessieChappel 👏🙌
Huge congratulations to @JessieChappel for her latest publication on enhancing assessment and visualization of mass spectrometry imaging data! Check it out! 🎉 pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
So so grateful for @ErinBakerIMS, the @BakerLabMS and @NCStateChem!! It’s a bittersweet time but I’m excited to start my next chapter soon at @NIEHS working as a chemist in the metabolomics core facility. But first, wedding, honeymoon, and #ASMS2023 🤠
Such a special afternoon celebrating Dr @KaylieKirkwood at the NCSU Chemistry Graduation!! 9 published papers (plus some on my desk), over 30 presentations, and at least 12 awards in 4 years, you are a superstar Kaylie!!
Great conference in a great city 🇮🇪 @aspiring_anna and I have had a blast at #SETACDublin and I’m facing serious denial about leaving tomorrow!!
The Baker Lac is back at it again today at #SETACDublin. Check out @KaylieKirkwood poster on using LC, IMS, MS and DIA to discover new #PFAS in non-targeted workflows. 🧪

The finished products - not bad for a bunch of scientists!! I am so thankful for this group of people (+ not pictured alumni) and all that they’ve done to celebrate my defense and everything else along the way. I can’t believe my time in the @BakerLabMS is coming to an end 🥹
We had a great time celebrating Dr. Kaylie Kirkwood at Pinot’s Pallete! Congrats @KaylieKirkwood !!! 🎨🎓🐢
Feeling lots of gratitude today for all of the people who got me here and supported me along the way 🫶 such a fun time celebrating!!!
Replying to @KaylieDonelson
@KaylieKirkwood became Dr. Kaylie Kirkwood today, on Pi Day! What a perfect way to celebrate! We are all so proud of you Kaylie!!
Some exciting news to start off the new year! 🥳 It's a huge honor to have our paper included on this list. I'm looking forward to seeing how our lab and others will build off of this project in the future!! 🌲
So excited that @KaylieKirkwood manuscript & fun collaboration with @BelcherLabNCSU, showing pine needles can work as passive samplers for PFAS, was selected as one of the 2022 Environmental Factor's Papers of the Year!!🥂 @tamusuperfund @SRP_NIEHS

We’ve had the best time at EAS!! Feeling very thankful for a mentor who is always on board to try for awards, explore, and carry the dance floor (unfortunately not pictured) 💃 @ErinBakerIMS
What’s in your PFAS-free pans, just as @KaylieKirkwood? It was so much fun to see Kaylie receive her EAS Student Research Award and present her findings!! Way to go Kaylie!! #EAS
Thanks to @SETAC_ChemIG @SETAC_world for the opportunity to attend my first ACS meeting!! Looking forward to sharing our work this afternoon in the environmental health & toxicology session #ACSFall2022
Replying to @KaylieDonelson
@KaylieKirkwood received a SETAC-ACS Exchage Award and will be presenting her work on PFAS and their associated lipid disruptions today at 3:55 pm at #ACSFall2022 #ACSChicago 🧪 Please come by and check it out!! #PFAS #TeamMassSpec

@ErinBakerIMS and I had a great time at the very first lipidomics GRC!! Two big fans of lipids and Maine 🤩
Replying to @KaylieDonelson
@KaylieKirkwood represented the Baker Group so well at the @GordonConf with both an awesome talk and poster showing how PFAS affect lipids!! #PFAS 🧪

This was my first project in 2019 and we submitted our inquiry to the editor in October of 2020 so this has been a lonnng time coming. After four rounds of revisions it is finally out there 🥹 We're excited to see how other labs use this for their multidimensional lipidomic data!
We are so excited to share our newest manuscript @NatureProtocols! This protocol shows how to use Skyline to evaluate lipidomic data & took 1.5 yrs in review😅(thanks reviewers). It has a 4D lipidomic library & datasets to try. Way to go @KaylieKirkwood!

In the span of 4 days I got engaged, became an aunt, and turned 25, which easily made last week the best, craziest week of my life. Really not sure how I’m supposed to return to emails and Zoom meetings tomorrow??

Dr. @ErinBakerNCSU (@BakerlabNCSU) and @KaylieKirkwood along with other NC State researchers have a recent publication concerning pine needles and their relationship with airborne contaminants. Check out the link below to learn more about the latest findings! #ncstatechem
