Huge congratulations to my former @CaltechCCE colleague Tom Miller and his whole team @iambic_ai on their successful #IPO today!
Proud to present our newest new-to-nature #enzyme activity, primary amination of aromatic feedstocks using simple hydroxylamine. @caltechCCE #directedevolution
New in @ACSCentSci! 🧪 We engineered biocatalysts that selectively install primary amines onto aromatic feedstocks using hydroxylamine as the nitrogen source. Huge thanks to my co-authors: @CaseyAtTheVat, Ethan Lin, @Yueming_Long_ @francesarnold

cen.acs.org 10 Start-Ups to Watch 2026: Aralez Bio creates noncanonical amino acids The start-up uses Nobel Prize–winning science to expand drugmakers’ options in making peptide drugs I am pleased to be recognized by Princeton University for the Woodrow Wilson Award. A big year for @Princeton science/engineering alumnae, with Mary Brunkow getting the corresponding graduate award. I wonder if they feel sorry for us...it's not been fun for basic science these days. @caltech @CaltechCCE
The University will present its top awards for @princetonalumni to @francesarnold '79, 2018 Nobel laureate and engineering professor at @Caltech, and Mary Brunkow *91, 2025 Nobel laureate and distinguished investigator at the @isbsci in Seattle.
Arnold, who graduated from Princeton with a bachelor’s degree in mechanical and aerospace engineering, will receive the Woodrow Wilson Award. Brunkow, who earned a Ph.D. in molecular biology, will receive the James Madison Medal. These awards will be presented on Feb. 20, 2027 at Alumni Day: bit.ly/4yO9rXxView quoted post on X
