New article coming out in the Journal of the American Chemical Society

I just found out that my most recent manuscript submission was accepted for publication in the Journal of the American Chemical Society. Check back later for a link to the article once it's published.

Key Lime Update

The key limes are doing pretty well. I only have 5 or so now though because a wind storm knocked a few over while I was at work. This is a photo of the one from before. It has a new set of leaves and seems to be growing fairly well. I'm hoping it behaves like the apple, which was a little slow at first, but has really taken off now that it has some leaves.

I was recently quoted in The Scientist about a column they were doing on in vivo imaging. Click the link to check it out:

Key Lime Tree Update

This is an update about the key limes that we planted. We have a few that have sprouted and this one is the best of the batch and is growing pretty nicely. We've got quite a bit of growth in the last week (see the picture of last week to see the progress) and hopefully the others start putting out some new leaves over the next week or two.

New paper published in Journal of the American Chemical Society

We have a new paper that was just published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society titled "Oxidative Quenching and Degradation of Polymer-Encapsulated Quantum Dots: New Insights into the Long-Term Fate and Toxicity of Nanocrystals in Vivo". Check out the link below to read the abstract and download the full article if you get access to it.
