The two previous posts[cite]10.59350/rzepa.28515[/cite],[cite]10.59350/rzepa.28407[/cite] on the topic of anomeric effects in 7-membered sulfur rings illustrated how orbital interactions between the lone pairs in the molecules and S-S bonds produced widely varying S-S bond lengths in the molecules, some are shorter than normal (which is ~2.05Å for e.g. the S 8 ring) by ~ 0.1Å and some are longer by ~0.24Å.
I know you are conditioned to think that what you are researching has to be novel. But let’s think about it for a second.
In a climate of funding uncertainty, what if the most cost-effective investments in global health weren’t about supplies or infrastructure, but human networks that turn learning into action? In this short review article, we explore how peer learning networks that connect human beings to learn from and support each other can transform health outcomes with minimal resources.
Last week I released updated Python, and Go versions of the commonmeta library that can now read metadata from OpenAlex. OpenAlex is an open index of over 250 million scholarly works from 250k sources.

In the spirit of learning in public, I wanted an excuse to dive into Quarto to learn more about publishing formats beyond simple PDF and HTML documents. If you’re not familiar, Quarto (quarto.org) is the successor to RMarkdown, the next-generation scientific publishing system that works natively with Python, R, and OJS. If you already have RMarkdown you probably don’t have to do anything to it to get it to render with Quarto.
This is a guest post from Evan Peikon, who publishes Decoding Biology, a substack about computational biology, biosensor development and analytics, and network biology. He’s a prolific writer, founder, and scientist, and well worth following along. Science today looks very different than it once did.
In my own attempt to be a productive part of the change towards European digital autonomy, I upskilled myself to manage and deploy services on European cloud infrastructure. As far as European cloud infrastructure goes, I did some research and there are several major players – OVHCloud, StackIt, and Open Telekom Cloud.
