Need a card to go with that perfect gift for that special someone this Valentineā€™s Day? Do they love chemistry related puns? Then ±«ÓćÖ±²„ Chemistry Department recent graduate Nick Uhlig has you covered. The Li lab alum has recently made available several charming Valentineā€™s Day cards through the online marketplace . ā€œI wanted to do it for a long time and kept saving up the ideas, but really only got to it after graduating.ā€ says Uhlig, who now works as a medicinal chemist at Gilead Sciencesā€™ in Edmonton, Alberta. ā€œI did it mostly because I was sick of seeing the same ā€˜do it... periodicallyā€™ etc. type jokes. I wanted super brutal puns combined with chemistry nerdinessā€ And he certainly does pull that off. Check out all the designs at the included link. Who knows what kind of coupling reactions might happen? This news was recently by the American Chemical Society news magazine C&ENews.
