Today I celebrated Fraser in a small way by dining at an Australian cafe near his NU-Chicago office and ordering poached pears (on pancakes), one of the special desserts he liked making for group gatherings at his Evanston home. And I echo the words, Thanks Fraser for everything!

As tributes pour in for Fraser Stoddart from around the world, we add our sympathy and love to Ali and all his family, friends, students and collaborators.
Read his reflection in @ChemistryWorld, on the whirlwind experience of becoming a Nobel laureate

I will miss Fraser a great deal. Today marks 17 years since I became his personal assistant, and what a run it has been! We worked hard and also loved to joke around a wee bit. Best job I could ever have hoped for.

What a terrible loss. I had the good fortune of meeting him during my postdoc at UC-Berkeley. At Birmingham then, at dinner he lambasted British higher ed – ALWAYS opinionated, and usually correct. A giant of supramolecular and novel aromatic chemistry – may he rest in peace.
With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Sir Fraser Stoddart, Nobel Laureate and cherished member of @NorthwesternU. His groundbreaking contributions transformed the field of #chemistry and inspired countless scientists worldwide.

Colleagues, Students, Postdocs, Collaborators and Friends of Sir Fraser Stoddart @sirfrasersays: I am writing with the sad news that Fraser passed away suddenly on 31 Dec (Australia time) while on holiday with family. No details yet on any services.

Researchers from @NorthwesternU have investigated charge transfer dynamics in supramolecular tessellations, exemplified by the tris(naphthalenediimide)-pyrene co-crystal CSD entry SUJVUS, here disguised as a Christmas tree.

For only the second time in our 179-year history, the editors of Scientific American are endorsing a candidate for president. That person is @KamalaHarris. | Editorial bit.ly/4daH36q

The Chicago ACS Section is highlighting Lerman's new book in the next Chemical Bulletin issue.
A new Science Speaks #interview is out.
I had the honor to speak to humanitarian @ZafraLerman who has been fostering peace by scientific exchange for decades. You can now read all about her amazing work & life in her recently published memoir.

My book was published in Chinese. Here is what I said about it:
In @kkariko’s “Breaking Through: My Life in Science” published by Yilin Press, she shares her struggles and research experiences.
Fellow chemical & materials scientists - Try to attend this one. It will be a high quality and energizing event.
Registration is now open for the 2024 IIN Rosemary Schnell Symposium!
